In my experience, the 462 does not make the RPMs of either the 461 or 460/046.

I’m talking in cut rpm stock saws

What's this "stock saw" you speak of?

LOL!

AJ you make my head hurt![emoji6]

It’s all in what you’re familiar with. I’m no genius.

Said no man ever...[emoji13]

But it's got a blue ribbon right on the can!

Well, the stock 462 is very impressive … especially when you consider the weight of the powerhead. Glad I got one!

Mason, mine does not feel peaky at all, in fact when I lean on it a bit it keeps pulling real nice … and the throttle response is very impressive.

If it were peaky, it would not have done so well with the 8 pin.

From the little bit I got to use one ( a 462 ) I felt it had great power for what it is. I used it with a 24"RW and a 7 pin. Great falling saw, can't tell if it's real thirsty or if shes got a smallish tank. The last sentence was said by a friend of mine that owns the saw, he would know better anyhow!

 

[huskyboy]

It’s peakier than a 461 but cuts about the same speed. Awesome chainspeed and rpm in the cut for a stock saw. I also did feel the gas tank was smallish, must’ve done that to save weight.

Hi Andrew how have you been buddy

I'm sitting on pins and needles guys... still waiting for my machinist to get my squish work done he had a bad tonsilitis last week and was unable to work on the cyl. But this weekend its time!

Baseline cut's are done on a 28" log with a 28" bar and 7pin.



sorry for skiping the muff mod only, but i'm sure @AlfA01 will do that for us

How's it compare side by side with the timing advanced 044?

 

[MustangMike]

I have not yet run them side by side, but my feeling is that it will do well. The 044 also has a base gasket delete, it runs well!

 

[RI Chevy]

462 should beat 044.

 

[MustangMike]

Don't count your chickens before they hatch! That 044 is not ported, but it is also not stock! It may come down to the wood!

 

[RI Chevy]

Mike. Your 462 should wipe the 044s arse. And take its lunch money twice on Sunday.
If not there is something wrong with it.
You gotta be real here...

Round one let's get it on!!!
