Re: Parts you need
Hello Bill, that was very interesting and educational. My son Shawn and I really enjoyed looking at your engines. The big shaft Fox .15 ( XXX?) was just impressive and I can't imagine there were many of those engines made. One thing I noted at the swap meet was the amount of engines on the table sitting idle with no takers. I really don't recall seeing that many engines. The run of the mill common stuff was just overflowing and no takers on much of it.
I was explaining to you that I had a Fox .049 which was in need of a piston. I damaged the piston and it's been in a cookie tin for nearly 15 years now. My dad gave me this engine probably 40 years ago. I'm quite certain this is the .049 version as it has the raised bump on the top of the piston crown. Ken

Good heavens!
Nothing was kept stock on that engine. Very cool!
Who did those modifications? The driveplate reminds me of a Fox .40 I received from Marvin Denny.
Thanks for those pictures.

Re: Parts you need
Ron, Fox made only a few of these engines for the FAI combat team when they attended the world championship. Back then they were running high nitro in which the stock cranks would fail. The crank is from a Combat Special MK4 I believe which does indeed use the same drive plate as the .40. Bill also showed me last week the bump transfer on the side of the case. If you look at a normal .15 BB you don't have that.
