A few posts down there is a part number for a kit that I believe will fit. I put it on a 390 once to help sell it. The clutch cover is platic so it is not going to be the best application.

If you only want it for looks then leave it off. That plastic cover is not going to last very long with it on anyway.

I'm not sure if the 361 kit will work, the 1127 series inner spike has a longer "throat" where the bolts attach it to the crankcase. The 361 kit inner spike uses the typical 1110 series mounting holes maybe someone that has both could check to see if 361 kit will line up.

How do fallin' dogs "balance out" a saw?

better pivot fulcrum i thought
LOL...Must be that "side balance" thing again.
To OP...putting on another set of dawgs might make the saw look cooler but if the mount isn't strong enough you'll wind up with more trouble than they're worth.
Did that... http://www.arboristsite.com/chainsaw/41530.htm on a lark.
I've since gained a 036 Pro that now wears the double spike/roller set-up.

I put them on my 032 but it is a all metal saw, and it was mostly for looks.

so if i switch that cover out to a metal one it ideally would actually perform how its supposed too then

When I put them on the 390 I had I don't think they required any mods. Like Gary and Gologit say, they are there for a purpose not just for looks. I happened to have an extra kit and put them on the saw I sold because guys like em just for the looks and it helped me move the saw quick.

Alright, good to know that no modifications are needed. Yeah, I'm learning 3dCAD photowerks at school now and to some people it's all about the eye-candy.
