Default RE: Ross 61

I did a post of this in the glow engines forum. A couple of guys chimed in with some info, a few photos, and a link which has some history
on Ross engines and photos. I have a used Ross 61 as pictured in the link which is in real good shape. Got it off ebay around 2000.

That exhaust port is rather small but the Super Tigre X60 had what looked to be a small exhaust port also and it was a real screamer.
So this thing might be a screamer too. That K&B carb is one heavy chunk of metal and adding to the overall weight of the engine.
I would dump it and try a lager intake Perry carb to get the most out of the engine.
