Biggest bar people run on a 660?

[Capstankid!]

I am new to the milling side but I have been an arborist for 4 years now and I have made my own Alaskan mill (use to be a fabricator). I am getting sick of logging good timber and I want to mill it insted! I run a 36 inch bar on my 660 but the timber I need to mill is 40 inch and I know i will lose 2 inch so I am looking at running a 42 inch bar but I would like to know if the saw will run it and the best places to get the bars and what kind!

Cheers Joe

070 is smaller than an 880 (106cc vs 121cc) but the 090 is the biggest at 137cc

 

Check eBay mate, there's an 090 on there now, they'll pull a massive bar!

And if that's not big enough, order bars from America!

does everyone run 404? 3/8 would be better as I have a roll of chain! surely it would be best to cut with .325 because its just a thinner cut?
