Meteor pistons are excellent. It is unlikely that the cylinder cannot be cleaned up with muratic acid and some fine grit sand paper.

And of course there is the required comment, correct whatever scored it to begin with.

OEM kits can be had for 125ish if you shop around. Before you disassemble, I would pressure and vacuum check the saw to find out why it burned up in the first place. I'll triple your money on it today.
