There are commercial units from Farmertec/ Hutzl ( chi-com units) from about that size up . priced a little more. I have been tempted by the 90cc or the 105 cc units as a back up to my .084. Likely a dice roll . Oh and somewhere I read 40 to 1 fuel mix.

I saw them also and was considering one for a mill saw before my 084 landed in my lap. First one Ive seen at smaller ccs. My granddaughters boyfriend bought a 660 kit and put it together. I looked at it and thought it was real till he told me what it was. It was stolen after very little use but he said it cut well for the few minutes he owned it.

I was l lurking around the Arborist forums reading about chainsaws a while back and saw the pro saw knock offs. A lot of folks really like them. I wish I had seen the DIY kits on the big bore saws before I snagged a 395xp (I didn't pay full retail for it) for my future mill.
 
run from 105cc down to 35cc or so
