MS 360 P&C kits.

Anyone have any opinion on the aftermarket options ?

How are the meteor kits ?

 

[Backtroller]

My meteor was fine. Ran like stock Oem. I owned two stock for a few months. If I would have handed you each one you could not have told the difference. I'm not sure of the age of my kit since it came on a saw I bought, but the port bevels and finish were as good or better than the mahle.

Resale value will not be as high though.

Your avatar is same as junkmans now lol.ive never run them other then there pistons.although it would be my first aftermarket choice. Why you looking for a topend or something?

Older Tecomec were decent- got 4 years on one before it died. Wasn’t too impressed with the port bevels but the casting and plating were nice.

Got a 2012/13 Hyway kit still alive. Plugged decomp, caber rings. Has 155-ish compression with an AM base gasket. Direct bolt on. Firewood duty and I ran it hard for a few seasons.

Since 2012 I’ve lucked into all oem cylinders with Meteor pistons. I have 4/5 1125 cylinders plus 6 on running saws. The farmertec I’ve seen were rough... same with “Laser” brand.

I got one today that was gassed, the saw is really nice it still has the sticker on the case..it was just super dirty so I polished it, I don't wanna spend the loot for an OEM kit.

Can you sand the transfer away and just add a new piston?

Sounds like one of my quotes. Hang on let me text a guy may know were used oem one is.

Rubbish! I paid fiddy for a used Mahle cylinder awhile back. From here.

Good luck on the hunt.

If you can buy a used oem cylinder from someone like @bplust I think oem pistons are just over $60 on eBay. Although it's still more than the $120-140 the meteor sets are selling for.

It would be cool to have a saw that nice all oem

 

[Cracker Boy]
