Not sure on trades just know there are a few at my 1 dealers.

I'm really kind of settled on a builder 385. As I said in the first post, I fully understand that a trade would get me an incomplete or blown 385 in need of an overhaul.

Here is my thread on it, last page is what the link is to and where it shows pics of it going back together and what I did. Mods are simple and basic, BG delete and lower transfer blending, nothing else. I could have sworn I took more pics and showed the work I did, but it seems I did not. It really is a good runner despite having a blue 13.3K coil in it. http://opeforum.com/threads/bringing-a-dead-359-back-to-life.1468/page-4

The 359 is the only Huqy I like or would want to own.

Looks good to me. Nice saw. Now I have to read those four pages

Man if you like a 359, you would LOVE a 357! Not taking nothing from the 359 though, dang solid saw.

Well, it's alot of wishy-washy back and forth on my part deciding what direction to go with it. Not very interesting at all really, but be my guest.

Interested in the 59. Considering building a Huqy race saw. Where does this fall into the 4cube 5 cube bit?
Next year brings new stuff and stuff.

It's 59cc. Running a conversion calculator on google says it is 3.6 cubic inch. A bit short of your 4-5 cube range if I am understanding the "cube" term correctly. 4-5 cube should be 372 size.

I don't like 288s. I would rather run a 385/390.

359 is under gunned against 365s. 4 cube is 65.x cc. 5 cube is 81cc.

Damn

I like the jug.

Edit: stroked maybe? Then run 4cube?
I have always been an underdog. Never stopped me yet.

Does the class run up to or just shy of? Can it run 3.5 class?

If you did move that clutch in on the 288 395 crank how would it drop into a 390 case?

Are they the same width outside the bearings?

That's what I'm sayin. One off beast.

395

390

Specs?
Anyone have measurements of the cranks widths at the shoulder and the throws?

Classes run up to that cubic inch.

Wish I could help but I'm like that drunk friend that tells you you can make it and holds your beer.

1 mm stroke would get me there. Is there a full circle piston to fit that bore?

A high pin setting would be nice.

I have been having a long love affair with 385 low tops, wide clutch cover and 4 point pro saftey felling spikes. It's just perfect in the hands with a 32 or even a 36" bar... I like a 288 but the vibe difference with a 385 is just to much to overlook for me...

Neither...281 FTW!!!
