He did a 7 vs a 8 pin as well. Not sure what chain he used though.

Lol. What saw did you try the 8 pin vs 7 pin on again?

 

[RI Chevy]

Not sure. 460 I think

Well broken in stock 572 same b/c 7 pin. 55.39 seconds. These things wake up a lot when they break in. You don’t get that same kind of grunt as the 390 with long bar but she’s impressive for the cc’s.

It will probably cut a good bit longer on the same amount of fuel as a 390 too.
Nice comparisons.

Yea, but Mason, you don't have a 661!!!

A lot depends on your chain, raker depth, and cutting style. My cutting style seems to work very well with the 7 pin!

Not sure, but it had a 25" blade .

Its your chain too Mike. You really lean on the bar when you cut. Your chains don't really seem to self-feed. They require you to be up on the bar and put pressure on them.
Just sayin. Lol
You gotta take one of your chains set it up the way you do then take 2 good strokes off every raker and try it Mike. It may cut better for you with less effort. ‍

Mike... that ported 390 is more powerful than a stock 661.

That’s for sure and thanks!

Well there’s your answer Jeff. It has less torque than a 390xp. Try the same test on your 660 and report back.

Might have been 262 or 660. Not sure. LOL

You could probably get away with an 8 on the 262 .

You should get a 12 pin to run with that fancy belly bar on the 660. Lol

I'm just a simple guy. Lol

The 660 should pull an 8 well though.
