The Cooper Norton . 

I didn't know a lot about these, so I looked it up and found this, every day is a school day.

Norton – 500race.org

oh, and in case anyone is wondering, the fuel can issue didn't work  as the plastic had become brittle and shattered while reassembling. 

there seems to be some differnce of info on whether the Stihl version will fit on the Husqvarna can, some say yes, some say no?

can anyone confirm either way. 

I just noticed Joe has confirmed it fits, I'll look into getting one of those.

No , the Stihl and Oregon are the same. Husqvarna is different.

Just buy the Oregon or stihl can, with the Stihl spouts. Throw the husky one in the bin.
