    That's pretty much what any good mod will do .Basically jump it about a cc class more or less . Running over cants for time actually you can get them to out cut larger saws but you don't cut square cants in the woods .:)

    It's relative . I slung those old duffers around so long just about any half way modern saw is light to me . I don't think an 066 is that big of a thing ,some do .

    Which really brings up a subject.How many actually run tank after tank after tank full,all day .Not too many . Maybe a lot of fallers don't want to hear it but a heavy duty firewood cutter will spend more actual running time that any . With me it's cut 20 minutes- half hour then move...

    Every so often you get one tuned that almost sounds like it is in resonance .It's like an afterburner kicks in .Unless you have experianced this phenominum it is hard to describe . This is elusive but attainable and every tuner in the world seeks it . Again different strokes also once again...

    Since when did you ever drive a Duesenberg .:P It's just an opinion Stig .What you might like maybe somone else sees differently . Modified noisey saws might not appeal to you but some of us really enjoy them,they aren't for everybody .They don't vibrate any worse that a stock saw they are...

    Now of days you have a choice in the mid sized Stihls,Ms 441 or Ms 460 and most pick the later . A few pounds heavier and a whole lot more grunt,no brainer .

    That bar thing just depends on where you are at .Most 046's in these parts wear 24"s also . The 044's that are left are 20" runners . I don't know how it is in other parts but the boys miss the 044's in this area and try to keep them running as long as they can .

    No I didn't remember but we all pretty much know there is no such thing as a 38" bar .;)

    Depends on how you look at it I suppose .An 066/660 is perfect match for a 36" running 3/8" chain .Any place other than the PNW it's about all you will ever need,with a few exceptions of course .

    I also have a small Stihl mount 32" bar but it seldom gets used .If it's normal stuff it gets wacked with a 20" and larger stuff with a large saw and a 36" which is very seldom . In Stihl mounts I've got 24's ,28's ,they never get used for some reason .

    I ran one [044] that Rick brought to the spring Ohio GTG with a 36 on it .Dan Henry had worked it over and to tell the truth it did very well buried in about 38-40 inches of hard wood . Had I not seen it,let alone ran it I would have never believed it .

    The 460 definetly has more oomph than a 440 . Both are nice saws though .
