RE: The price of a new norvel
The question is, what is a .074 worth compared with a OS .10 or .15? The .074 is a nice engine to give some 1/2A designs extra punch without redesigning the plane. .074 owners need to be resourceful enough to keep the engines running with no factory support.
I think you can easily find .074s for about $70-100.

Everyone is pretty much in agreement that an OS .10 is
a great little engine.I open the exaust a bit and get real
increase on a 7X4.
Now if some of our machinist guys will design a new head
for turbo plugs we may find how strong they are.

Yes, last spring I replaced the stock head on the OS .10 with a unit that took a custom made button that carried a turbo plug. The gain was about 500 RPM.
