I think I previously put dibs on the Poulan stuff, but if not, I have now. Just picked up an Echo 900 today I will be bringing.

Ok well as some of you know I've been loaned a 394 for the build off. A fellow member zogger had a 394 he hadnt used a whole lot so he figured leaving with me to build break in and run would be mutually beneficial. It was a great offer so we agreed it was a deal. Fast forward to today

Got the saw in the mail day before yesterday. Looked everything over tested out fine 165lbs compression and vac tested well. I ran it some and it was strong so I was good to go to pull some numbers. Intake was a little low but I noticed the base gasket was deleted. Then I noticed the transfers were raised to stockish numbers and the exhaust was a couple degrees low. Pulled the jug and found finger ports. The transfers had been raised some as well.

I'm a fair person and I wouldn't take credit for work I didn't do. Would this still be ok as my build off saw or do I need to find something else? I'm not looking to have anyone feel cheated or doubt my work so I wanted to put this out there.

Hmmmmmm

For now all I have is a 385, and a 346 that thinks its a 395.

With any luck I might have a 2188 by then. Like the idea of running dull chain for everyone. Keep the playing field level. :cool2:
