Yep....that saw flat hauls ass.
Scott's work is top shelf......it was running his saws that convinced me to begin trying my hand at grinding ports.

My PP655 (non BP) is to date. Still need to get it all dialed right, and different chain, but wow! Old school grunt for sure...
Wish someone local sold .404....
Debating if it needs a trip to TN for some grinder work, or leave her stock...

Are you the guy who found the squatch? Or is everything a big lie?
Found a 'squatch? Hell, he's related! :hmm3grin2orange:

Aside from Mr.Fluffy the 385 you mentioned is probably my favorite saw I've ever run.

+1 They're as smooth as butter.
Don't forget about the Uber Rare Stihl 041 Uni-Bearing either.

This saw is fairly impressive even if it is old. 1930 something.
This one is from 1970 and has more power. 16 inch blade.

Got to run a 880 with a 47" hardnose bar today at work to flushcut a 6' red oak ! With gas ,oil ,bar and chain she must weigh 40+ lbs but man does it eat... And for reliability the 362's we have at work get dogged 6-8 hrs a day with 25" bars and still run like new after almost 2 years...

So guys are we talking work saws or anything that has a b/c and cuts? I haven't had the priveledge to run a autotune yet so my choice would be my 372. That thing impresses the hell out of me still and she is getting old. If were talking anything i would say my old piped alky 3120. I have never competed with it but damn did that thing scream. Stock rod and all but it held up for the max 30 seconds of cutting it would ever do at one time. 20" bar and a 12 pin rim it better impress. Fastest cut i ever did thats for sure :msp_thumbup:

Sweet deal. So does it have similar characteristics as the 261 ported has? Or is it just a whole other animal?

There are pro's and con's to being good at your craft. Everyone sends you work but you can only get it done so fast so it makes it tough to smell the roses so to speak. Good news for me I'm not good at anything so I've got plenty of time to spare.:msp_biggrin:

You probably like it a whole lot better than framing.
