I believe an HL188 is on mine. These guys sell a Chinese repop. I got one for another project, but didn't try and fit it. The instructions listed the 580 application on it, and the price is right. 1" bore.

thanks for the heads up! are you selling that one there? or just showing me where to get?

Showing you where to get it. I let mine go with the McCulloch MC49E I just sold to a vintage karter. I did not measure it up to my 580. I guarantee if you shoot an email to the link above, he'll answer you on fitment. Very good guy, very knowledgeable. One thing he did, is to weld washers to the jets, so they're easy to get to for tuning. (A two-stroke thing, because they always need it) Less than $40, and no messing with pop-off pressures, and other Tilly fun.

obviously im out of my league when it comes to two strokes, because i dont even know what pop off pressures means lol

maybe i just need to take the motor off and sell it along with my 820 and not try to mess with that stuff, ive got a lot on my plate already....
