Default RE: Engine history lessons

That was engine number 118. Engine number 119 will be a Fox .50 that might come tomorrow. Thanks for the interest. I am toying with the idea of testing some engines on my AHP torque reaction dyno to find the difference between, for example a Fox .74 glow turning a 12x8 two blade Graupner at 11,200 rpm and a Fox .74 Davis Diesel conversion turning a 12x8 three blade graupner at 9,400. I may make a post soliciting ideas on how to measure thrust while I'm measuring the torque. It should be do-able. I am pretty good at fabricating things.
