your pick for the strongest 81cc and under saw

[Keith Gandy]

7910 ported by Carl Miller is the strongest in that class that Ive ran

 

[jacob j.]

... McCulloch PM800, PM850, SP80, SP81.

Toward the end of my dad's career he ran mostly SP-80/81s and he said they were flat-out one of the finest timber falling saws ever made (Third only to the SP-125 and P-62/655).

Although my 3270 sounds pretty cool.

The 3270 is a very underrated saw, as was the 2260.

My 181's always make me smile......

I gots nuthin under 81cc's.

Actually I got my 116si I did my own big bore from 61cc to 76.5 cc
and it runs very strong for an non ported saw.

A while back someone had a 181 next to a 372 at a gtg. Amazing how compact the 181 is with the low top. Especially if you consider its power, displacement and age.

The 181 was available in the fall of 1982, it was featured on the 30th anniversary cover of Chainsaw age magazine and a small write up on it inside, a copy of Chainsaw age I just happen to have....

In thinking about it, my CFB hybrid is sweet. It “feels” more aggressive, more raw than my 7910, but I think the AV and smoothness of the 7910 are deceptive. I should run them back to back with the same chain.

Hey now, I saw a pack of mac 10-10s huddled in your truck up at Dans last fall ???
don't they all add up to 80cc or so ?

 

[old 040]

As far as ported saws go, my "Stumpbroke" MS440 would be next in line....

 

[rattler]

I have never ran a 7910 but have ran a bunch 181/281 they fit the bill for me

 

[T.Roller]

Alot of the saws posted are over 81 cc lol

Well Cooper has an ear infection so our plans to go for a hike and swim are canceled. Hopefully he'll feel better tomorrow.
