or 16 or 18 or 20 or 25 or 32 or 36 whatever you want but guess it depends on the cant/cants , wiggs will be the one to call that shot.

:dizzy:

These are big bore work saws. Put a bar on them that's representative of what they do. Mine wears a 32". A short bar will actually handicap a 395. They don't usually turn as many RPMs, but they can sure man handle a longer bar. Make it fair and meaningful.
 
I assume that these GTGs are not for work, but do any of you pro guys do any tuning if I brought my two little saws? I don't plan on being embarrassed by running them, but just get them checked by somebody that knows more than I do. I am aware that if somebody runs a tricked out 346 and then I come home and get hold of mine that I might be disappointed and tempted even more.:msp_scared:

I'd love to help you out, but I've never tuned a saw at a GTG;)

you are right,, the GTGs are for fun and socializing,, and yes we do a lot of tuning,, if you want to run someones saw all you have to do is ask,,, thats how i ended up with my 346xp,, wiggs let me run his one day and i fell in love with it,,, its a good place to have fun and run saws,, dang i almost forgot,, AND EAT,,EAT,,EAT even though there is a few of us that don't really need to stuff their faces but there are also a few that need more meat and potaotes :D:D
 
I say we do 20's but thats just me.

...and 9 pins? A 20" on my 395 has 17" past the dogs. I say we do atleast 32". I still have my 066 buildoff chain that hasnt been run since then.....im sure we can find a bar somewhere ( jerm) :).
Im just having fun and mostly poking and gouging. I would like to see how my hacked up 395 compares to a good built 395.......lets me know how much more i need to learn :)
 
So what are we racing?

i am going to race this,,, its ported with 200 psi comp :msp_biggrin::msp_biggrin::msp_biggrin:
