Slant fin 044 cylinder, don’t know whether it’s a 10mm or 12mm, it was in a parts lot my buddy Ken has. He can get pictures of the bore tomorrow in better light, this is just the cropped pic of a group of pictures he sent me of stuff he wants to sell. He says he would like to get $100 for it.
The piston is what makes it 10mm not the cylinder. Stihl put 10 and 12mm pistons in slant fin jugs although maybe just the Mahle variation, it is possible to run a 12mm in a KS as far as I have heard. Putting a 10mm piston in a straight fin can cause problems. Slant fin jugs have better timing numbers than the later straight fin decomp cylinders and run better stock. KS cylinders are said to run the strongest. Mahle slant fins run around 155psi stock and a KS may run as high as 180.
I see by your signiture you would be the one to know lol, but that is something that I didn’t know before so I appreciate you sharing your knowledge, I’m always looking to learn!

I have a 10 mm and 12 mm with ks cylinders i put on them.you can put a 10 mm cylinder on a 12 mm saw but cant put a 12 mm cylinder straight fin on a 10 mm.the rings will hang in transfers and tear it up.
