I found a local amish husky dealer that has been pretty good at cutting me deals. Most of my chains are 11 bucks (oregon 73LG, 3/8 .058 x68DL) I've been scrounging around looking for the parts to convert one of my 365's to a 372. Scored two cylinders (one looks brand new with matching piston) and the other had some slight galling on the piston of the exhaust side. It is not that bad, but I saw this one first and asked him how much...He said 10 bucks...I went looking for more...Found #2 and tore it apart. Bought the carb and hose to go with it for next to nothing, with a couple bases gaskets and an extra muffler. He also had one of those Jungle mufflers with the round tube outlet and no spark arrestor. It was fairly well rusted through, but thought it was neat none the less. And I picked up a couple 55 rancher parts. Gypo, went and did it, now I want to resurrect cylinders.. :laugh:

Now I just gotta tear apart a perfectly good running saw to upgrade....And to think the only reason I went was to pickup a used carb to get rid of the off idle hesitaiton from the ZAMA pos! Thanks guys, I'm turning from a gearhead to a chainsaw freak! :laugh:
