joe_indi,

That was a good post! I`d give you some positive rep if this forum allowed it.

Yes, but far from all 365s have Zama carbs..... ;)

Wowee! Thanks Jokers,
I really appreciate that.

The ones I have seen here for the past 5 years had Zamas on them.
Dunno about the earlier ones.

I saw a new 372xp power head for sale last week for $695.00.

I purchased a 272xp back in 1999 it was the last one the dealer had in stock.  I don't know what the difference is between the 372 xp and the 272 xp.  I really like the 272 xp it has more than enough power for everything I want do.

  I don't know what the difference is between the 372 xp and the 272 xp. 

I don't know how far this is true:
In the Husky model designation, the first number stands for the generation of that model and the other two stands for the engine capacity (in c.c.)
So the 272 would be a 2nd generation 72cc model while as the 372 is a 3rd generation 72cc.
Going by this, the 575 is a 5th generation 75cc model and the 385 is a 3rd generation 85cc model.

Not true for the 346XP: It USED to be 46cc, but the new ones are 50cc

Unfortunately, it isn't that simple, even though it is mostly true with the pro saws from about 1976 (when they started at 1xx again after the first "round" up to 4xx in the late 60s early 70s) until recently. A few years ago they jumped streight to 5xx for the pro quality strato saws, reserving 4xx for those of lesser quality.

Regarding the 372 vs 272, the 272 is 72.2cc while the 371 and 372 is 70.7cc, except some late 372s that are close to 75cc.

The 371xp appeared late 1995, and was a totally new design compared to the 272, who's basic design was from 1976 (162se - family). The 372 is a development of the 371.

Used to be 45cc, not 46...... ;)

Btw, the older 246 was a true 46cc....... :D ;D

The 2 last digits is an indicator of the aproxsimate cc size, but far from accurate......
