SOLD 066/660 used cylinder

[Nutball]

Is this junk, or salvageable? I don't see any damage to the cylinder wall above the ports, so I'd consider it salvageable.

I have no need for it, make offers

Appears to have some work done upper end of cyl. Has it been ported maybe? I will send a pm

 

[Nutball]

I saw that, and was wondering the same, but it looks a bit rough, and the ports show no signs of work.

I believe it’s aftermarket. Probably not worth anything with that much damage

That saw ate some big chunks o metal
Nice pencil holder…

I believe it’s aftermarket.

I was wondering. Something didn't look quite right. I assumed it was probably OEM since it came off a repair from way out in the country, and was sitting in a Stihl box. No KS or MAHLE on it.

4H is one of the clone “brands”.

The ports and chamfers don’t look to bad for an aftermarket.

 

[Ketchup]

Looks like early aftermarket with an exploded pin bearing. Some of the early AM jugs had very good porting. It might be worth timing it. I have a 066 56mm AM jug that’s a direct KS copy. Even has the KS emblem.

Looks like a candidate for a first porting attempt. Fingers or bridges maybe?

Scored through the plating is a deal breaker imo.

That’s what she said.

Or was it he said

That’s true. However, as long as the transfer wall at the gouges isn’t broken, and it all the high spots are honed down, I doubt there will be discernible performance lost. Maybe the porting looks worse in person, but that beats any aftermarket cylinder I’ve seen.
