390XP + 572XPG Upgrades

On the 572 note a while back I emailed an enquiry to Walker saws for the cost to build and ship a fully ‘walkerized’ 572. Ported, muffler mod, clutch cover mods etc etc

Having watched their saws on YouTube the porting is hugely impressive.

About 1200 dollars shipped. With fingers crossed it slips under the import duty radar.

Pretty reasonable

I have saws from walkers well worth the money and Johnny is great to deal with

What do they do to the clutch cover?

I think they increase the room it has to clear sawdust/chip to cope with increased cutting performance
Avoids it clogging up.
Externally there is a flap/guard to keep the dust away from the user.

I’d have to dig out the quote he sent for more specifics.

There is a video on YouTube of buckin billy ray visiting the shop testing out the tuned saws husky 572 stihl 462 maybe and echo 7310

He’s as mad as a box of frogs as usual but the saws are impressive.
The 572 in that clip was what I enquired to buy.

Not a 572 XP but a well used 592 XP with factory wrap Kit
