Looking for cyl and piston..
 
Would anyone out there have a used but still in good shape Homelite cyl #UP07145A (old #041368) and a piston #984544001? This is for an actual blower (LOL) but i am a RC guy. Just a RC car guy.

Thanks to all!!

I wish you luck, I don't have any thing to help you with. But the title of this thread fits my needs also, I am looking for a cylinder & piston in good shape for an Echo cs-440 chain saw. Any one have a set lying around? PS this engine has the three piece crankcase and cylinder.

As you probably know guys, it is usually much cheaper to find another used engine. The Homelite parts are often not all that expensive, but they are getting harder and harder to find. The Echo/Kioritz parts are really expensive. It is cheaper to buy a complete "repower kit" (long block), than it is to buy just a piston and cylinder, and it is still going to "rattle your wallet" for around $200.00. Better to scrounge another used engine unless time is important and money is not...

Thanks for your input, I agree with you. I thought I might get lucky and catch someones attention that might have a good used cyl/piston they were not going to use. Never hurts to ask. Just the piston kit new is $53.00. I only gave $14.00 for the short block, the cyl/piston are both galled.
