Chinese Cylinder Kits for Rebuilding Husky 55

[SaludaRiver]

I'm looking around for a cheap Husky 51 or 55 to rebuild, especially one that only needs a new piston and cylinder. Some of the kits are $80-$90.
Are these worth considering? Anyone use these kind of aftermarket kits? If not, what kit and source would you recommend?

Thanks in advance

I bought one off ebay a while back. Quality wasn't great but it runs fine. It was good enough for a loaner saw.

Check with site sponsers Baileys and Nortwood. Both have cheap priced kits and they will stand behind their products, it can be a crap shoot on Ebay.
