so are the older 084s the exact same specs? cc, porting, etc???
Cc yes. There's some differences in port timing. The one Nate661 has for sale is a nice one.

If this were my saw.......it would be run on Belray H1R @ 32:1 only.
Without this stuff.
Later today I'll post timing numbers for all three......

The Motul is just as good as Belray.
Port timing is within a degree on the 084, 088, and 880.

OIL THREAD !!!!!!!!!!

where do you buy the bell right 2 cycle oil at.... Just wondering
It's good stuff. I'm using motul right now. The smell is about the same and it seems to be as good as any of them.
I was told at redmax school the other day you can run a saw lean by having too much oil. With oil being thicker, it can have a harder time going through ports in the carb, causing the lean condition. They tested their oil and it survived at 300:1. I'm running my stuff at 40:1 with any synthetic oil. I'm a big fan of red armor from shindaiwa. I've torn down two saws using it and everything is coated perfectly in red oil. No excessive oil either.
Also, with the Stihl parts pricing, you guys weren't joking about a price decrease. Pistons were anywhere from 25 to 50 something. Long blocks were around $150. Pro saw topends in the low 200's. HD2 air filter is $26, compared to $42 just a month or so ago.

This is the rule I use with oils. Any OE oil (Stihl, Husky, Echo, etc) I use 40:1, with other oils (Belray, Motul, Maxima, etc) I use 32:1.
I buy my oils on ebay.
