Need new cylinder & head

[metron]

Took the top end off found a broken piston and the sleeve rotated in the cylinder. Took to the machine shop they want close to $450 for a re-sleeve and a piston kit. Where can I find a new top end? Found a "kit" on ebay for $220 for the jug, head, gaskets, piston & air filter but but unsure of the quality of the parts.

You also should replace the bearings, as you will have to split the cases to remove all the debris the piston left in the bottom end!

And you may find that the piston chunks got between the rod big end and the cases and distorted the cases near the counterbalancer shaft.
