It's going back together today. Had to clear the bench for that big beast.

Wow! That thing ought to kick some ash!:numberone:
I just love the old Poulans. I ran a 4200 for 28 years. Replacing it is what infected me with CAD.
Are the original P&C that came on your saw usable? If so I would like to buy them if you don't have a use for them. I have a Timbermaster 3600 3.7 ci that I bought that was not quite as represented. Has very low compression. Some day I would like to get it going again.
If I remember right it has the chrome piston aluminum cylinder and very low compression. I didn't know that new chrome cylinder 3.7 top ends were available.

Does that 18 volt Milwaukee impact have enough power to remove clutches? I have one and it is pretty stout compared to my Makita and DeWalt.

It will take off most clutches. Not the 066s, and big saws though.
 
I like those curving quad open transfers, similar to what McCulloch was doing around that time.

It's interesting that the case has notches/cutouts for the entrance to dual open transfers, but the jug does not - the entrance is in the jug and the transfers are short.

They used the same case for several different top ends.
