WRONG ANSWER !!!!

Moparized 462 would be the correct answer, as is obviousely given away by the Moparmyway sticker.


I will add this though:
Docs 462 ( @drf256 ) is definately a saw that does NOT suck !!!!

You gotta take better pics

**EDIT**
See the look on his face in the 880 picture ????
That saw tends to do that to anyone who runs it !!!

Out of those four saws what one would have you chosen (if you could only choose one) for the task at hand?

 

[drf256]

I can’t see the 880 or 3120 being wanted for anything under 36” in diameter. The extra weight and displacement become useless unless the load gets bigger.

If Kev could pick one of those, I know it would be his 500i for all around usage.

YES !!! (provided the temps werent so cold, otherwise them heated handles of the 462 make it WAY more appealing for use)

Ported 500i

Second choice would have been the ported 462

 

[Moparmyway]

Both saws ran same bar and chain.
462 went first, 500i went second on the same log
(just look at the crotch diameter and the pile of chips at his feet for verification)
Log was the crotch of some real knarley stuff, as you can see the saw(s) jump in the cut
Jason was pressing down, trying to keep each saw in the sweet spot, obviousely the 500i allowed him to press MUCH more while cutting

Very nice Kevin...
500i really sounded strong.

Got some venison for the freezer right before dark today. No buck, but a decent size doe, taken with the MZ from a climbing tree stand!

Deer was 70 yds away, it went down so fast there was no bleeding from either side even thought the top of the heart and most of the lungs were gone!

Had 5 deer in sight right before dark, and was hoping one would give me a shot before it was too late. Don't need anyone complaining that my shot was too late!

Nice Mike

Got to run the Rattler 288xp for the first time, the XS266 and the 394xp I built from a box of bits. Thanks Mike @rattler , you have done an amazing job of the port work, the 288 has some serious low down torque! Cut some Oak that had been down for 18 months or so. Beautiful setting, old farm estate that has been in the same family for 5 generations. Nicely landscaped and well tended gardens.

Pretty much dicked off on my property.
Did a video. But for some reason my phone decided it was 2007 and recorded everything in 1080p 30fps.

Last clip was a very hungry chain.

Took my Daughter and 3 Grandkids sleigh riding today.

It is the last day before my Tax Season starts, there was still snow on the ground (more coming tomorrow), and it got above 20*!

Everyone had a good time, and my 60+ year old Flexible Flyer was by far the fastest sled, I'm not sure why.

It think it may be because the newer Flexible Flyer still has some paint on the rails!

 

[RI Chevy]

Nice Mike

 

[Moparmyway]

You probably forgot that you drilled a 1/4" hole in each skid and its running an HD2 AF.
You probably deleted the base gasket too ...............

Check the sled, see if I'm right

I thought you were going to say it was powered by a 661!
