Chuck,


This engine review can still be accessed through the Morris Hobbies web site.

It was done over four years ago and the engine no longer even looks like the photo in Clarence Lee's article.


In those times, Morris would replace the bearings in those engine with a phenolic retainer, high speed set and I believe they issued the test run info.

Today's Quickie engines come ready with the Swiss, phenolic retainer, C4 bearings and with the dedicated, 9.5 mm #3219Q carburettor.
They do not include any performance certificate, as they come from Brno, Czech Republic.
The manual states 20/80 fuel and 15% nitro isn't even mentioned.

The performance is still as good, however.
