See attached pics. This came off an 036 I picked up as a non runner for 50 bucks. The saw is really clean but the piston was toast. I was able to clean up the cylinder pretty well. Check out the pics. I thought the cylinder was aftermarket due to the poor casting quality until I saw the stihl logo. I have rebuild several stihl saws and this is by far the worst casting I have seen. So what do you think, is this a real cylinder?

Very desirable Kolben Schmidt cylinder, keep it and run all the way to the bank!
