How bad is the used piston you picked up?? Can you post up a couple pics?......I have a stock 90 piston here to compare measurements to yours.
Haha maybe we should all go and put in offers for $75! Lol he would get so mad
Haha my turn!I also made a $75 offer. Who's next?
I have these two but if I need more I can get them tomorrow

Woohoo picked up this for £200. It’s mint original. Left to gather dust for years. It was dry stored, all rubbers are good. Started 3rd pull on choke. Tuned nicely. Needs a new chisel chain to go with the new bar. Out torques my 357xp and modded 034. Still loses against my ported 038 mag. Sweet and smooth as butter with the AV.

Nice score!!!..........in beautiful condition!!! Another nice thing about it is....if you want more OOMPH pretty easy to change it over to a 2071/371....pick up a half dozen cc or so.
So it will be like this 372xp that I also picked up for £210.. not as nice condition but it is in great working order View attachment 605691
Yep.......just waaaay nicer looking!!!!!
Which?. I’m a red and black fan to be honest.
Yeah..... I meant the Jonsered......
Could you show me where to get some Caber rings?The intake side looks OK........how about the EX side....that is where more of the wear and tear normally occurs. If the EX side looks as good as the intake I'd slap a new set of Caber rings on it and be good to go. Run it like you stole it......probably last forever but then it would also allow you time to find a NOS one.....they do appear from time to time on ebay. I picked up a nice one a while back.....add said it was used and the pics looked good so I sprang the $20.00 for it......when it arrived I was stunned.....it was used but I'm gonna say perhaps two tanks full...machine marks were very much still there.......I measured it against a brand new NOS piston I had and couldn't find any wear at all......they were both the same size code too.
EDIT!!!! I just went back and looked closer at your pics....my bad.....that is the EX side.....I wouldn't fret a bit about running that piston......New Cabers and your in good shape. Again you can keep an eye peeled for a NOS one but get to use the saw now.

I have bought some stuff from there before, but I didn’t really know to buy based off of measurements instead of “model”These folks have sales and all kinds of promotional stuff going on regularly:
