all depends what you are after, a good pipe makes a huge difference and so does a good carb. im still running a CY 26cc with FS tuned exhaust, and it keeps up with 'tuned' engines so im happy as.

update on stihl parts.2 ring piston does fit the skirt is about 2mm long to clearing the crank web a little time in the lathe should do it.also the head bolts up but has room for longer stroke and no coil mount . clutch bolts up directly will have to run to see what rpm spring engages at.
i'll check that when the new mill gets in tommarow.
