Default RE: Stihl 92cc With Stuck Rings - Prognosis?

Thanks for the info! Acouple of questions:
<ul>[*]When you say sand the cylinder you mean a sheet of sandpaper and some elbow grease? No special equipment? Wet/Dry?[*]I'll have to look into the glass bead peening for the piston - not sure if it's available locally. What would be a reasonable price for this?[*]When pricing new pistons I came across some aftermarket cylinder/piston kits on EBay and Woodland International. They have NiSil cyilnders and Moly coated pistons. They run from $100-120 USD. Does anyone have any experience with these. i.e. how do they compare with the OEMparts which seem to run about $200 USD?[*]Ihaven't tackled removing the clutch assembly yet. Are they LHthreaded?[/list]Thanks again for the help
