395XP vs MS661 - all stock - 36" bar 404 RS chain

[pro94lt]

Results are as expected... 395 is 42" or bigger for me only...

Gas chain saws are overrated. Lol

Julian, why did I think the TM 064/066 was the fastest at CT GTG?

I think I heard Julian say he hated that saw LOL

Why gear these saws up in a way that they would never be used in the real world. A .404 8-pin it's about the size of a 3/8 9-pin. I'd rather see comparisons using a setup like they'd actually be used.

Lol gotta have a excuse for everything to want more load put on

I heard him mutter it about 2 dozen times to himself, and he also told me about 10 times !!

Ive got all of my 90cc saws setup with 404 and 36" coupled with 8 tooth rims ............... for stumping. Works great when felling and bucking also

Yeah, we ALL know what he Really thinks. lol I'm calling his bluff. heehee

Want me to plaster my next few posts with just my Huskys ?

To show potential torque of the 395. Bet it gains with the 8 pin. If it were used in the real world someone would never clean the filter, gas filter be clogged or they wouldn't keep the chain or tune as sharp as Julian did in the video. Not trying to make my post sound argumentative just being honest what I see when I've worked on a tree services saws.

I agree with going real world. I want big saws to have big bars and reasonable sprockets.

I'm not going to use a big saw to buck small wood, if I break one out, it will be for a purpose.

 

[angelo c]

are you guys sure it wasn't the RUSSIANS who intervened and gave the 661 the advantage ???

Sheesh.

Thats why we ran 7 tooth sprockets in Ct.

I wish we had more wood so we could have ran 8's as well

Some use 7's and some use 8's. Both are real world, unless I'm living an unknown cartoon life

We're all going to have an opinion about it, but why complain about what someone else would like to do or see for themselves ?

I bet the 661 still wins after they get ported

I feel the 395 will have a little more torque personally just my 2 cents worth

 

[Moparmyway]

Ooops ............ forgot the afforementioned plastering of muh Huskys

Serious compression there

 

[RI Chevy]

Husky makes a 2 ring piston?

 

[TJ the Chainsaw Mechanic]

More compression than my big block chevy. haha

It might, but that doesn't mean that it will have a faster cut time though.

Pfft real world eh? This is a CAD asylum. Hell weres the 1/2 pitch chain at!

Who said it was a Husky piston ?

 

[huskyboy]

Both ported in this comparison. 38 secs for '95 39 for 661. 661 was a 95 exhaust short bar saw. Both stout saws.
