The pto seal is leaking on that thing in the video. I still haven't changed it. Its been sitting on the shelf waiting for that rainy day.
Here's my favorite clip of it so far...

That's awesome! You need to put that into production!

Chainsaw Jim is my hero! Great thinking and I love how the top cover still fits and hides what is underneath.

Have the 036 redone correctly (and touched up by someone) and you're 357 will be eye candy only. Bet you take the 036 with you everywhere.

It will feel more like a compact 70-80cc saw than a torquier 50cc saw-like the 357 does.

Are you a Stihl fan

Doc built the meanest nastiest 036 I have ever had the pleasure of running. Truth!

But I feel this 357xp with a timing advance, gasket delete and muffler mod is the prettiest damn meanest ungrinded 60cc. I havn't even touched the cylinder... @XP_Slinger will back me up on this!! I swear tis the truth

But then have the 357 done correctly and we're all back to square one.

I have a ported 357 great saw, but wnt run with the ported 036 in a race, for fire wood it dnt matter booth are great.

Good job I am just a firewood hack then

 

[dustinwilt68]

Just being honest, I love my 357, but the 036 is a faster saw, still not letting my 357 go anywhere, mine has a 199 carb also, supposedly the best performing carb for a 357xp.

Depends what you're using the saw for.
Personally, I'd rather have the 036.
Just more power plain and simple.

Fixed for accuracy.

I consider myself a Husky guy but my MOFO 034S is hands down my favorite saw.

I do love my 357 and it will never leave my barn. It NEVER fails to impress me every time I run it. BUT, I have never run an 036 so I really can't cast an opinion in comparison of the two saws. Awe the hell with it...357XP FTW!!!!!!!!

I feel the 036 is more torquey, I think with a 20" bar the 036 would out work the 357. That's not to say I dislike 357s!

Try one. You may turn into STIHL Slinger. Lol
