385xp interchangeable cylinders???

[nicklt040]

my question is- What cylinders from other saws will work on the 385 crank case?

husqvarna 385xp and 390xp

 

[nicklt040]

that all?

Yeeeep. Unless you want to do a lot of machine work and try and stick a 394 jug on there.

Bolt-on options are just what Terry said.

where would be the best place to purchase an aftermarket cylinder and piston kit?

i would look for used oem first everywhere you could. the aftermarket would be the last hope for me. what are you looking to do with the saw and how much can you spend on it. i may be able to help you with oem.

There's not many options right now. There's one seller on ebay offering aftermarket kits in Canada and those are an unknown commodity
as of yet (meaning no one here has purchased one and tried to use it.)

its actually my fathers saw. Its a log woods saw. just needs to be put back together and be dependable. I was telling him to find a good oem. but he was lookin to save money too. if you got something let me know.

I saw those and was kinda skeptical.
