Husqvarna 562 and 555 cylinder differences?

[Ronie]

Is the only difference between the 562 and 555 cylinders the transfer covers? I'd like to port the 562 I just got but don't want to grind on the original cylinder, so I went looking for a cylinder and found a cheap 555 one.

I think the covers are *supposed* to be larger on the 562 and a different part number. I could be wrong. A cover swap wouldn’t be that difficult, just be careful of that little oring and you need a safety torx bit (t15 or t20 I think??).

That's good news, thank you!
