Got one on the way from chainsawr. Don't like the look of the deflector on the side. Going to run a stock muffler. It will be the only saw I have that is not muffler modded. Might be nice to have a quiet one. If I do decide to mm in the future I will cut in half and pull out the guts.

The pipe one is louder to me than the side exit. I added a deflector on the front for a dual port on the pipe muffler I had.

Did not think to put it on the front. Thought it would get smashed up but this is not a 346. It has big dogs. Also I used a piece of plastic bar scabbard for my front av spring protector. Let me know what you think.

That should keep junk from getting into the spring. I put it on the front since that's where the paint burnt off first.

I don't know what you aim to do with the little plastic guard. The cases get broke by the AV mount from people wrenching on them or dropping them and the AV spring actually hits the case and breaks them.

Here is where I put an extra outlet on the muffler.

The case is already broken. Just trying to keep to sticks and what every else may poke in there. If it does not work I can always try some thing else. Guess a piece of broken husky sprocket cover would work a little better.

I wouldn't worry about stuff getting up in there. They have a pretty large gap from the factory and the stock case protector doesn't even cover that area.

This is the stock west coast case gaurd and a non broken 394 case.

Wonder how many people have walked away from buying a nice 394 because they thought the case was broken. Do the 395s come with a side access chain tensioner? Looked at a few IPL and seems they are all on the inside. If the do come that way will they fit a 394? I got my new coil installed and have spark. Will tune it later today. To wet to get into people's yards today with out tearing them to pieces.

The 394/395 never had a side tensioner.
