I locktite Stihl bar studs so they don't back out. I see plenty of loose missing screws on 201t's and loose mufflers on 291's.

The guys on OPE say the 880 is bad at oiling and under powered stock, which matches my experience. On top of that, they vibrate a lot more than the 3120, but the 3120 carb can't be adjusted. It would be nice if they made an all around better design with Husqy spring AV, inboard clutch...

I could see getting a ported 880, but not worth having a stock one. Ported would put it a couple digits higher HP and ftlb than the ported 395. They're making cheap clone kit 880's now if you are into that kind of thing. I'm not sure how well they go together or hold up yet. Do you turn those...

I think the 395 could do a decent job of oiling it compared to an 880. Might be able to mod the oil pump. I modded the pump on my avatar saw (88cc) to blow out 2 tanks of oil per tank of gas on the high setting to thoroughly oil a 42". I'd top it off with oil every 4-5 big cuts, probably could...

I would advise against the 880 just because a 90cc saw can be ported to far out cut an 880 while weighing much less. It's not so much a difference of power than it is a difference in the rpm that power is made. Just an example with realistic numbers: Stock 880 peak power: 8.5HP @8250rpm, peak...

Tempting. I wouldn't mind trading a really loud saw for a really quiet one.
