stihl 660

Hey. So lately there has been talk of a simple yet effectice mod that can have some power gain on a stock saw. The old 'base gasket delete', closing the 'squeesh gap'. Has anybody done this on a 660, and how reliable would it be, if it is a thing?

I need help identifying some Stihl chain. I have 2 stihl boxes labeled 36 rsc 114 but no bar for it. The actual chain inside is 3/8 pitch .063 gauge 108 driver links. Is this obsolete chain or something else it appears to be about 36" length I'm having a tough time finding a bar for it.

Looking for an oem cylinder shroud and tank. Let me know if you have anything. Looking for pretty good condition. Also, has anyone used after market tanks? advice/experience? If I can't find oem I might have to go aftermarket. thanks

I'm kinda at a loss for what is happening. One last thing is that it will ring slightly after stopping...

Would love to trade my low hour Stihl MS660 for a lightly used excellent condition Husqvarna 288XP

Just wondering if this is a fake MS 660? I've not seen an intake like this one with Stihl in the middle. It's from Ebay. Supposedly a refurb.

Looking at buying a Stihl 660 magnum. Seller said it was recently rebuilt by a Stihl dealer, also has a new 20" bar, chain, air filter. He wants $450 for it. When asked why he is selling, said he just need the money. In my opinion the price seems pretty decent when those saws retailed for over...
