Thats encouraging!

Temp, rpm, and cc pressure that I know of

I'm sure your right.

I don't think its a blanket statement when I said I think it offers more potential for "long bar work". I thought it was pretty common for people to assume saws with longer stroke engines perform better with longer bars (vs similar size engine with shorter stroke)? Maybe I'm mistaken?

Why would I think that it may not like seeing temps rpms and cc pressure outside its programmed parameters?

I agree its just about perfect. I think it will be the perfect saw for the 50+ crowd firewood cutters. And they will sell lots! I would think anyone that cuts commercially would just buy 2 562s for close to the same price. Especially after the price increase takes affect on the 564. As a guy...

I just hope the engine module doesn't freak out when I port mine. With temp sensors and crankcase pressure sensors it may not like a lot of porting if it gets outside the set parameters. Hope one of the tuner companies can hack the module and reprogram if needed

Thats disappointing. Long strokes and transfer caps are where its at

$200...gross! Starting to sound like Stihl pricing.

I'm a little further away the Stump so mine is still in transit. But very hopeful it may make it this week. My project is an old 044 with a 54mm top end for a 5cube racer. Been slowly working to make it a little faster. The ccc piston will allow for some nice finger ports. After that I'm...

What's your price range. I have a couple nice ones.

Ported 400c gets it done. Crazy good power to weight. Kinda the perfect saw for firewood up to 2' dia. But a well ported 562xp is right there with it!

Hands down get a new 372oe from Robin. Finding a good used one in not always easy and when you do its priced similar. Xtorq never lived up to the oe in my opinion.

Finally got myself a 592 the other day. Been wanting to use it as a benchmark for other ported saws since most fellas have an idea as to how they run. So why not run my ported 572 against it. Everyone loves a good head to head right...I know I do. Didn't know what to expect would have been happy...

Waited long enough. The time has arrived!
