Shouldn't the fuel line be included in the kit or be at least good enough to use? Why should you have to buy extra parts?
That HELP!!! wasn't understood by me. Is it you would like more help finding good deals or avoiding further CAD episodes??Just built one and it runs great. Used my a-frame press to put the cases together. Only thing I replaced was the chain tensioner. Ordered another one with big bore kit and the MS361 with big bore kit. Too early to tell how long it will last. My wife is ready to kill me, got 7 saws and more on the way. Turning into a chainsaw junkie, cannot stop buying parts off eBay.

Hello all, new member here all because of this thread! I had stumbled across some Youtube vids of these being put together and ended up finding this thread and decided what the hell why not winter's coming up and it'll give me something to do and I'm always up for a challenge! I got the kit ordered yesterday and am doing my research to get anything else I need ordered before it arrives. Sounds like I should get an OEM chain adjuster, oil and fuel caps, probably Caber rings, anything else? Haven't decided if I'll try and heat and chill cases/crank or take it to work and use the press. Still debating the BB kit, worried about reliability and idling? Are there better BB kits other than Huztl? Don't want a finicky saw. Regardless of cylinder I will do some basic cleanup work to the ports, it's been awhile but I used to port motocross bikes back in the day. Anyways thank you to all for the great information and videos that have been shared, I would never have expected to be able to get into such a big saw for so much less than the real deal.
Good to know, thanks weimedog, your vids are the ones I accidentally stumbled upon that gave me the idea to go ahead and try this! I have the heat gun and NC thermometer so may give that a try, using the press at work may not be the ideal circumstances, very busy and not a good place to concentrate unless I go in on a weekend. I will probably visit the Stihl dealer this weekend, should I just order the OEM seal?
