So here's how it started, doesn't look too bad for an old saw

the 650 I had @Stump Shot do I was lucky enough to have a new oem piston for it but yes they are priceyThe Meteor comes with Caber rings! You wont like the price of the OEM piston!
the filter cover was painted before I bought it but yes all oemYours is real pretty Dallas, is that rear cover painted? I think I will put an Elastostart on it if I get the compression up. Is your handle OEM? mine came with a china replacement but the OEM doesn't look too bad. I will need a brake flag.
It was metal, wasn't it? One of the early ones.the filter cover was painted before I bought it but yes all oem
Am I the only one that can't see pics?I cleaned it off so not too much junk would fall in and pulled the cylinder. The piston may be able to be cleaned up but I'm thinking I'll just grab a new OEM or Meteor and some cabers

looking better, still a little work left but I think it's going to end up really nice.
So this is where I'm leaving it until I get back from a long weekend away with the wife but I'm thinking of getting the other filter base and getting a max flow, muffler mod, little timing advance (how much?) and see what the squish and compression end up at likely without base gasket. Thought's concerns, grammar notes?
