There's a guy on Youtube (Treeson) who runs a 42" on his 395. Not sure if it's ported. Husky rate them for 36" standard so ported should pull a 42" fine.

 

Might even get round to using mine one day. Has a .404 36" on it. Might bring it to you first, while it's still clean. ?

I am not pushing for work, the opposite in fact, I am trying to take it easy but it seems most of the arb world have me in their contacts list!

Anyway....you should be taking it easy!!

Well my beloved 395 ain't gonna port itself! ?

 

(Or my 525, 540, 550, 572, 3120...)

 

I still need to bring you my T525 to look at/retune.

I'm wondering what the difference in pull/load is between running a 36" in ⅜ or .404.

 

Since .404 is bigger teeth, but less of them. Maybe it works out the same. ?

 

I put this together but never tried it like this. Did run it with a 28" and it was bloody fierce though! ?

About 1-2mm kerf difference.
That should equate to about 10%.speed increase if all else is equal.

Im not sure about the exact figures, all i know is 404 puts heck a lot more load than 3/8ths. 404 rim/spur is slightly bigger, so it robs more tq and gives abit more rpm. Ported 395 wont feel 404s load

Tested the 881’s cross cutting ability with a 30” .404
Very tasty?[emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Ms660 is being discontinued in 3rd world countries and the buying spree world wide has gone crazy. Looks like even 3rd world will see strato design slowly in every range
