We're sorry, but you have one of the old O.S. Max .50 R/C engines with the crossflow-scavenged porting. They went out of production in the 70's or so. You'll have to try to get parts from someone who sells to collectors or:

These gentlemen rebuild old motors and stock large quantities of older engine parts. Any of them may be able to assist you:


1) Preferred means of contact: [email protected]

Phone calls will be greeted with an answering machine. Please leave Name, Ph No. and, preferably, what you are looking for:

(Please note that there may be as much as a one week delay in response time due to extensive travel to shows, swap meets, and FLYING TIME! Lucky them! :-)

4) PISTON RINGS ONLY:
For discontinued piston rings, try contacting Frank Bowman. He manufactures repro and current piston rings for our modeling needs. He can make standard and Dykes type rings. If he doesn't have the ring you need in stock, you send the piston and cylinder and he will make it then. prices are $7.50 up to $9.50. His work is of the finest quality.

Frank can be reached at [email protected] which I understand doesn’t work anymore?

5) Alternatively, you might try placing an ad on one of the internet lists such as rec.models.rc.***, www.rcuniverse.com and some of the many other r/c related sites to attempt to purchase the item which interests you.

6) You might try swap meets, club sales, estate sales that list hobby equipment, etc.
