I just bought this engine off Ebay thinking it was a Bunch Mighty Midget. It has not arrived yet and now I'm not sure what it is. Anyone have any idea what it might be?

Looks like a 1936 or 37 Mighty Midget to me . 1936 W/lapped piston is a 0.421 displacement & 1937 W/rings is a 0.488 displacement .Page 11 in the new Anderson Book. Think you did ok if you didn't pay over a $170.00 for it. Max H.

Wish I talked to you first Max. Paid a little more than that for it. Won't know about the piston until it arrives. Thanks for the info though.
Mike
