Looks like you are ready to clear cut some big sitka spruce trees.

Man that is some saw. Six in a row might make it go but that homelite probably would also.

Re: Biggest chainsaw project yet now finished

I used that same engine as a go cart motor...Ran great but I never got to actually use the Go Cart as I never finished the build. Would have been a wild beast I am sure. Those engines are powerful.

Re: Biggest chainsaw project yet now finished

That is a big one .. My dad had some old saws
McCulloch Mac 250 and Homelites ,, not sure but bigger than mine ,as he was a logger in Oregon ..

He said McCullochs back then vibrated apart easier that Homlite in the 50ies and 60ies

My two saws were both Homelite Super XL's they were 5-20 ies 5 Hp and 20 lbs

But TJ ,, your saw is much bigger.. 2 man saw ,, nice refurbashing too.
