Do the powerheads have to match in HP and speed? I have the following saws:

Howdy,
Two of the same model would be the most balanced.
It's been my experience that it's almost impossible to get two saws (even the same model a serial number apart) to make the same torque at the same rpm. The stronger saw will take more percentage of the brunt until it's pulled down to, or worn to the weaker saw. When we set these up in the past, we set the he high end to the rich side independently on each powerhead. Then we used a tach, and bring the higher rpm powerhead down to match the lower rpm powerhead.

Gregg
