wrong big bore kit for Husky 372xp?

Then get a meteor BB 372 piston.

 

Meteor makes a 064 piston that fits Tue big bore. I think you'll need a thick gasket or machine the chamber.

 

Wow, lots of potential ways to go with this and lots of good advice. I now have the 52mm big bore cylinder and the 50mm original Xtorq cylinder. Switched and mixed and matched intake set ups to mate the bb kit to my carb.
Thanks to a link someone sent I could get an oem 50mm Xtorq piston and rings for around $100.
Or get another 52mm piston and clean up the jug and try again, checking for leaks of course.
I felt it had some more power (for two
tanks) but it went through fuel way quicker too.
I'm thinking about putting it back to oem if I can lightly hone the cylinder. I'll clean up both cylinders and go from there!?
Thanks again for all the great help, I need it!

 

Somebody had emailed me saying I was posting here, so I came to see. Not me folks. This is me.

Thanks for sending those. The xtorq piston appears to have cut outs that mate up with jug. Thats what I meant about matching piston. I think I've seen them called stato ports? So the xtorq piston is like you said $90+. Im going to clean up both jugs and get a cheap piston for bb and the oem for xtorq. Return this one to stock and look for an older 372 needing rebuild.
Im a farmer so Im pretty handy, but not a saw tech. My saws usually run forever, good maintenance and fuel.
Thanks again!

 

Maybe a jonsered 2065 or 2071/2171 would be a good fit for that big bore kit? I'm working on a 2171 right now that spit a crank bearing clutch side and that bb kit is the same.

 

I would think your less likely to find a Jred kit than a Husky kit?

 

All the same chassis just different colors.

 

I know that but my point is many folks won't market to jred as its such a small market share?

 

Depends on your regional location, around here there is still a lot of JRed dealers, much less market share for Husky. Tractor supply switched to Jonsered on the consumer level market as well.

Anyways, long story short both Husky and Jonsered are fun because of the amount of parts that swap between the two.
