this ones for AJC
Saw a picture of your sub piston intake design on the site that dickybird turned us on to, I was curious as to how well it works and what type of port you machined into the sleeve??And did you port the piston or trim the piston skirt?? loved the thimble

The engine, as most piston ported designs, is not meant for speed, but will run happily at an RPM similar to a reed valve cox engine. It will turn a larger prop like a 7 or 8 inch like a Texaco.
It is mainly done for fun and for the originality. I cannot take credit however for the design, that goes to a fellow Canadian that lives in Quebec, Canada, Mr. E D Cox! (no relation to the Cox engines!) It was a published article in "Strictly I. C." a magazine devoted to miniature internal combustion engines, no longer in print.
Hope that helps!
