@Bluegill I forgot to mention you need to use the 346 drum and worm gear to do this.

Small rims in 325 7 8 on 357

I'll check what I got here and see what fits.

Dont make since to me why a 325 8T would throw it off like this.  Figured it would be easy peezy just like the other.

It almost sounds like you have a 9-pin on there....

I have a couple 372's and a 066 with 8 pin rims and with 3/8" X 16" Oregon Power Match bars and it is a real tight fit to get a 60DL chain on them.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".
Be all that you can be . . .

Put the same 8T 325 on the poulan and there is so much room back and forth easy peezy. It is just the 357 saw and bar combo.

Just tried 8T .325 16" Sugi bar, 66 DL Oregon chain on a 359/357. No go, too tight. Looks like a 68 DL chain would be just right, but I don't have one in .325.

Thank you. That confirms my findings too.


Weird you can do a 8T 325 in stock chain lengths on the 346 but not the 357 359 saws.

You're welcome. Was hoping to try it out, but am more than happy with 3/8 on a ported 357 .

I'll look, but I bet there's more room between the rim and bar studs on the 359/357. I have run 8T on a 346 without any issues.

Trust me I am more then happy with 3/8 on a stock saw.  The 325 is for the chain build off we are doing.  So setting a saw up to run 325.
It's been a fun learning experience. Trying 325 8T 9T and bars etc on 362xp 6800i PP365 357xp.  Was always something stopping the set ups except on the PP365.
