It is like that in a lot of places sadly. Sad

OK, let's get back to this question. What is different between these 2 motors, besides mine shows some use?

Yours has a thick neck crankcase these from my experience perform a bit worse but really it is fine.

WingingIt74 Sat Dec 24, 2011 9:11 am

I did notice I have a brass round drive plate.

nitroairplane Sat Dec 24, 2011 9:15 am

THen it was most likely used a pusher at some point in time.

Crankcase neck is thinner on the one inside the Piper Cub. Backplate is inverted also.

Brass driveplate you said on one.

That's interesting..... I've never had a pusher..

nitroairplane Sat Dec 24, 2011 9:46 am

Well people also use them when they use E starters on their engines because they are reduced friction.

Now on the hunt for a correct crankcase....

WingingIt74 Sun Dec 25, 2011 7:25 pm

My cousin is in town. He remembers it as a CAP Super Cub 105 like this one.

Maybe someone replaced it and disgarded the original.

Found out in my wanted ad that the tank is a 62-63, which would make the plane a SuperCub 150 and not a 105. Hard to remember so many years ago when I only had messed with it for a half hour and found out the engine mount in the plane was junk.

Mark Boesen Thu Dec 29, 2011 12:36 pm

Hi Travis,
I reread your post and your correct, all you need is a "thin" tapered case with the starter spring groove, if your try to make a "early/mid" sixties Babe Bee that came out of the Super Cub 150.
The "straight" case you have now is usually seen on car engines. Its kind of tuff to call a engine a specific year as constant production change makes that pretty hard unless the engine was only made for a year (Strato Bug) or two (silver case RR-1)

Mark

WingingIt74 Thu Dec 29, 2011 12:49 pm

If you look at the 105 above it doesn't have the spring grove.

Mark Boesen Thu Dec 29, 2011 12:52 pm

yes I know, are you trying to build a engine for a 105 or a 150??????

WingingIt74 Thu Dec 29, 2011 1:06 pm

My cousin and I believe it was a 105. I remember the engine being a little difficult to remove or different, which could have been because it was mounted upside-down compared to my PT-19 I had.

Here is the '58 Babe Bee now Smile
