Out of those three I like skf. But they are not the Cadillac of bearings.

I've been using Nachi bearings for awhile now.......they are a nice Japanese bearing and are available in C3, sealed or unsealed in every size I've needed.
Nachi or SNR are pretty much the best currently available.

No matter what folks may think the available sources are drying up, We are going to need to use the oversears parts.

It finally happened. Nearly 9 months after getting this saw, it's finally back together and running. I had all the parts sand blasted and powder coated. All the bearings are new. It has new rings. Carb kit. Fuel, impulse, and oil lines. All new hardware. It's been a long road, but oh so worth it. This saw turned out beautiful. It starts right up, idles great, has great throttle response, and revs out nicely. There are a few details not finished. I'll be installing new rubber on the wrap handle. There are also a couple missing bolts where I had drilled and tapped for a keysert, but ran out and need a couple more. I'll be painting the letters black on the gear cover, and the letters on the air filter cover will be silver. I would like to get a period correct starter handle for it too.
A BIG thanks goes out to Glock37 and his brother for the beautiful finish on this saw. It didn't come easy. Twice, oil bled through the finish, causing one case half to have to be done three times! The got it done right though. I REALLY appreciate their effort and hard work.

This is the older style air filter box, complete with original over spray.
Here's what I started with. It was a runner when I got it.
Nice work Ol Buddy.
Now go to bed.

I've been working on this and my other 041G non-stop since I got home from work. I had some parts on the other one powder coated as well. I wanted to get these back together today so that I'd have tomorrow to work on port jobs.

Absolutely, but I doubt it will see wood. I'll bring my other one for that.
That could be arranged
Very nice, man. Very nice.

Brad, do you know the part number for the air filter? I have the same style air box, and need a replacement.
