i just purchased a roached 064. took it apart and there was a piece of the piston that broke off. Question to you guys am i money ahead using the original jug which was in good shape, hard to believe i know. and getting a org. piston with a port and polish job done on er? or should i do the big bore kit with just a muffler mod.? i'm gonna split the case and clean er out, the bearings seem like there in good shape should i replace them once i'm down that far? Seals will get replaced for sure...if you guys think i should go with the big bore kit would i be better off using a orginal 066 kit? i found one somewhere and it's a complete kit jug, piston, and seals. or should i look at getting a kit from baileys? and if you guys think portin and polishing would be the better why to go, at what point of assembly would you send it out and have it done? And really what is it that they do to it, i know the muffler port will get smoothed and polished what what else. thanks and look forward to the replys...Oh and i only paid 30 so i can spend a bit to get er in top shape, oh and while i'm thinkin about it what kind of enamel do you guys use to match the stihl color?
