what head do i have?

sorry no pictures, but the head i have fits the COX .09 size engines, takes a normal glow plug and looks just like the heads that the testers "pipe bomb" engines took

The glow heads for the Queen Bee and the TD 09RC, use a regular plug;

Does it look like the MECOA 09 head adapter?

it does not look like that, it has two 1/2'' flats milled into the top fin, has three fins that are .036'', .036'' .056'' thick

It might be one from Charlie's R/C Goodies. I think I recall seeing a picture of an engine with a flat topped adapter with the 2 cutoff sides like you describe that the person brought up having a Charlie's head on it.

Its been quite some time, I just googled "Charlie's Glow Head" to make sure I had the name right and "Charlie's R/C Goodies" come up with a few pictures of NIP heads. Unfortunately, all the pictures I found show the head upside down. I'll do some searching.

Take a look at this thread, scroll down to the pictures and read a few posts below them. Take a look at the head on the Norvel.

Not the same but similar.

Maybe someone like Mark will chime in and know what that exactly is.

that looks just like what i have, maybe it is a little smaller that the one shown in the link or do the .15 and .09's have the same glow head thread?

The .15 is larger than the .09, the company that made that .15 head adapter in the auction probably also made .09 and .049/.051 adapters too.
