Title: PP365 testing
Post by: Cut4fun . on December 04, 2015, 02:40:15 pm
After the chain build off I am going to do some testing with the left over cants.

I am going to run the poulan 365 with the stock small oem carb and small intake boot for timed cut.

Then I am going to switch on a bigger carb from the 330 380 3750 3450 saws using the small intake boot still. Test cut again.

Then I will try and put a 3450 tank on the 365 to run the big boot and bigger carb on the 365 to see what gains made with each step. 
I just dont want to grind open my smaller tanks open and carb stuff to use bigger boot. So hopefully the swap works.

The 365 is 60cc open quad port.   

I am really interested in seen this Kevin.   I have never compared them and it would be nice to know if upgrading is worth the effort.

I thought it was near 60. My phone put in 70cc for some reason when I typed cc.

Kevin ,that small carb is an eye brow raiser  for sure. I'm using HRI oil and had to really lean the carb out after completing the engine and mufflers mods  from where  you had the high side set at and the saw really screams on top end. Truely believe the 49 carb is more than capable of supply enough mixture after porting,will most likely be easier on fuel over the 136/167,IMO,think I got those carb series right ;D Got my eyes on this thread ;)

My woods ported partner 5000 with tiny oem carb was right on the tail of the 272 carbed opened up to flow alky P5000. 

I know my 357 carbed 346 was 10% faster then the small oem carbed 346 in the timed cuts. Couldnt tell it without a stop watch and the wood never new which saw I was running. 

Gains for cookie cutting is all the big carbs are for IMO.

Thinking it is 137 and 164
