A couple of pics of my main worksaws, "375 XP" 372 XPG then just so they don't feel left out 576 XP, 385 Xp , 288 XP and 562 XPG. The 288 and 576 are just MM'd the rest ported by Hotsaws 101. I first started using the full wrap around 5/6 years ago when I got my first saw from Jack Beelar ( 372 XPW) and now wonder why more lads don't use them If I'm doing smaller stuff and want a very low stump then yes I use a " normal " saw  !

That's some great work saws, I am a big fan of your videos on YouTube, I really like your 375, I was just talking to a friend today about trying to get a 372xpw in my collection.

Thanks Elliot, finding a genuine 372 XPW could be hard..only sold in US and Canada for a shortish time and a lot of stickers saying XPW ! Around 8ish years ago the 375 was sold for a very short time and there was some 372 World Champion models sold. The 372 had the  wording in red. As you know my 375 is a custom made saw only the "decal" is genuine ! and it certainly out performs any "real" 375 out there ! 

Your first step should be a North American spec muffler with 2nd or indeed 3rd "port" using 266 or 288 deflectors and you will be pleased with the result after giving the high screw a bit more fuel.

That's some great information thanks, I seem to spend most of my time now looking for 371/372 saws for the collection now lol. I have thought about contacting hotsaws or the chainsaw with regards to an 372xpw In the hope they could source a good example of one.

You could go that route but the cost of finding a mint genuine 372 XPW ? I would go for a dead XPW and have it ported. Of course I mean new top end etc !!

I think realistically it would be easier for me to do I 372 with a big bore kit on it, I have my eye on a 572 when they come out next year too. How are you getting on with the 562? I have seen a company selling them now in the uk.

[outinthewood]

I'd still go for a well zipped 372 XPW i.e. a genuine 75cc top end but thats me ! My 562's are going well and as I have said many times although the specs are the same on paper the 562 just seems to run better / stronger ? either way nice to see them avalible in UK. As for the 572, it looks like it should be worth the wait till Feb 18 and just as important the new C 85 chain which looks very good !

[ElliotSmith]

Yeah that sounds like a better option, I would like to get a hold of an oem 75cc top end by next year I hope, there is going to be a 575xp in the family soon, never used a 575/576 before so looking forward to that, I think a 562 might be on the xmas list this year too haha.

The 395 with its wraps on.
