Stock/dual-bypass ported cylinder, slotted thick-wall with wrench-flats. Case is later with beefed-up nose.. and a nice thick brass drive-plate on the end of the crankshaft.

It's a nice-looking front-end to an engine.. I think. I don't have another case configured that way. Maybe I'll use this one just for publicity shots.. Laughing

The prop is a 5 X 4 3-blade by DAL.

This will be a static-test of the engine with and without the velocity-stack.. running the DAL 3-blade prop in the photos. I'll take /post video here for you all to critique.

I LOVE this holiday. 4th of July Flag

The velocity-stack is easily-removable.. so

Great engine breed, Roddie, looking forward to your report.

Be careful with that DAL prop, that may have been made for electric motors. I had a DAL 3 bladed explode on a TD020 mid-air, so I was not in jeopardy, but a bench run keeps you near the prop.
Happy Independence Day to you CEF friends celebrating in the US.

I got rained-out yesterday. It's probably just as well.. I might have lost an eye due to an exploding prop.. Shocked

That would be my luck...

Rain; off and on today too.. I finished building an "anti-drown" platform for the pool (to save critters that accidentally fall in..) which I started a few days ago. I'll show more in a separate thread.
