MS 362 CM Bark Box and wrap around handle

Westcoast Saw Bark Box and Westcoast Muscle Saw wrap around handle kit.

[@tomplucknette5941]

It is clearly faster with the bark box, gets up quicker and is quicker in the cut. 3 things to improve a stock saw markedly... muffler mod, base gasket delete, advance timing, square grind your chain. This will double a chainsaws production.

[@bkb5668]

I have three of these saws one with an Egan straight shot one with a bark box and another stock muffler. Two of them are set up west coast style the other has the normal handle bar and clutch cover. I have a nice 441 and new 500i that are both set up west coast also. I put a bark box on the 500i. Put a tank/handle guard on that saw, it really cuts down on bottom rash. Thanks for the video!!!

[@Spudd74]

Dude, not gonna lie, I’m a little jealous of all your saws. Thanks for checking out the video.

[@robmatthews4259]

Defiantly sounds and looks like it cut way better with no bog, thanks for the video my Barkbox is on its way 👌

[@Spudd74]

Heck yeah. You’re gonna love it!🤘🏼

[@allanmingee9870]

Just watched this video,It is definitely louder and more robust in how it sounds with the bark box installed,Also it does seem to have a bit more power and speed from just that simple breathing advantage,less turbulence means improved performance,I just ordered Dogs and Barkbox for my 362C.These saws auto tune in just a few cuts to the changes in breathing,It’s nice to have no tuning screws to have to readjust👍🏻

[@Spudd74]

I don’t think you’ll be disappointed with the dogs or the Bark Box.

[@allanmingee9870]

@@Spudd74 I don’t think so either

[@jamesmiller7283]

Wholy shit them dogs look badass ! I mite hafta order me a set .

[@Spudd74]

They are badass!!!!

[@IndianaDoug]

Thanks for the video man. I looked into the 3/4 wrap handle like yours and could not believe the price. The bad thing is there are no aftermarket wraps for the 362. I retro fit something I paid $45 for. Looks and feels completely stock. I'll make a video of it on my channel soon...

[@Spudd74]

Yeah I t was expensive. I looked at it a bunch of time before I ordered it. I might of even had a couple beers in me when I did. I have no regrets. It made dropping trees easier and more comfortable. I’d like to see your video.

[@IndianaDoug]

@@Spudd74 🤣 we could be friends!

[@Spudd74]

You can never have too many friends!!!!

[@danr308]

PLEASE make that video!!!

[@danr308]

Cause $289 is as much as I paid for the saw!!!

STIHL chainsaw is really good

[@Spudd74]

I agree. Nothing against other brands, I’ve just always owned Stihl.

This epic

[@Spudd74]

You’re epic

[@spuddtheepicanimator7252]

Thx

[@jimmyfaherty8588]

it looks bad azz. doggs are really 👌. not sure if it was chain or your muffler upgrade. but, it seemed faster(muffler upgrade)

[@Spudd74]

Yeah it does look pretty sweet. The chain is stock and I thought the same after the bark box was put on but I just figured it was me hoping to see a difference. Lol

[@ashtoncooper9269]

That sounds sweet

[@Spudd74]

Especially at an idle!

[@kurtismoosman8039]

I have just bought the bark box mufflers for my 362c and 461, they sound mean.

[@Spudd74]

Yes they do

[@mikebrewer7776]

Hey there. Did you let the CM recal itself? Sounds good.

[@Spudd74]

Yep. It’s been running great and starts no problem.

[@BLAM777]

Had any problems with the m tropic wireing breaking and the saw just dies while running? Just got one and now I'm finding out that if you run it alot it just keeps heating up the wires and breaking them.

[@Spudd74]

No. I haven’t had any problems.

[@adelarsen9776]

Why do you need a new side cover plate ? I don't understand. Thank you.

[@Spudd74]

Honestly I don’t remember why. The kit came with it. If I get a few minutes I’ll take a look.

[@adelarsen9776]

@@Spudd74 Thank you. The man does not seem to have a website.

[@Spudd74]

West Coast Muscle Saw is where I got it from.

[@tech-gl8po]

Sounds like it's cutting slow or your not revving it mine will absolutely eay

[@etthealiengamer]

That is the bar length from the end of those felling dogs to the tip of the bar

[@Spudd74]

Sorry, I just saw the comment. I’ll measure it tomorrow. I’m guessing around 18”

[@bradenmiller3476]

Did you have to reset the tuning on your mtronic after you put the muffler on? Do you still like the bark box?

[@Spudd74]

No I did not have to reset it. With the mtronic it will adjust itself to changes in air coming in and going out. Yes I love the bark box. It sounds awesome. Just the right amount of bark.

[@etthealiengamer]

My boss did mine because he has a buddy that it is certified Stihl they had to rest it and and its mtronic shit this saw has the power

[@timtorkelson7201]

Got one on my 462..love it. Instructions read if mtronic it learns itself,usually after 2nd or 3rd cut.

[@kylebrown8891]

When I go on wcs they label a bark box for only ms360 and 036. Is that what you ordered. I have a ms362 c that I’m not to impressed power wise.

[@Spudd74]

They have it listed in the drop down box for 362/400 and it has to be a 2 piece muffler.

[@kylebrown8891]

@@Spudd74 ya I have the two piece. Did you take any precautions to let the saw auto tune? I don’t know a lot about the new saws.

[@Spudd74]

I did not do the reset. Everything I read said that will adjust itself during normal use.

[@kylebrown8891]

@@Spudd74 ok. Thanks.

[@bondtanna99]

I haven’t seen where they offer the full wrap handle can you post a link? How much was it? Thanks in advance

[@Spudd74]

The wrap around handle was from West Coast Muscle Saw. I would add a link but I don’t know how too. I just checked and it’s still on their site. The kit wasn’t cheap $289. It’s all Stihl parts. It made a big difference when felling trees.

[@jonahmelchosoutdoors5006]

Question will the old cover still fit with wrap handle?

[@Spudd74]

I’m not sure. The kit came with a new cover so I’m guessing it won’t.

[@jonahmelchosoutdoors5006]

@@Spudd74 oh ok I’m looking into the kit but I want to keep the captured nuts and someone told me the other cover that come in the kit is better because it doesn’t clog with saw dust

[@dentondunn4346]

Is the 362 a prosaw?

[@Spudd74]

Stihl has it under their professional line.

[@adrianstefan23]

🙉🙊🙈👍👏

[@racerx9223]

Hopefully you reset it, I'd imagine you did.
