That looks lovely. I'm tempted to get a 372 ported and run it on 18"

The 390 an't all that and am a stihl man all the way but the 390 is not low on the power for what it says on the tin. Might be corrected o.m.o.

That should have read is low on power for what it is.

I wanted another 385 to replace my stolen one but they had stopped making them so I got a 390 . I think in standard form the 385 was slightly more aggressively ported . I did however get spud top work his magic on the 390 and now its mustard ! Think the 390 benefits from fitting the carb from a 372xtorque .

Ha can see were you coming from, I just have never understood why stihl have't improved the 390 with more torque and power. Not a bad saw really.

I am refering to the Husqvarna 390 XP ( superceeding the Husqvarna 385XP )
