ORIGINAL: GWILLIE

Desmobob,

In 1983, Fox made .29s, .36s, and.40s, all in the same basic configuration. These were the Series 5 engines. The 36s had NO markings. The 29s were stamped "29" on the top of the left mounting lug. The 40s were stamped "40" on top of the left mounting lug.
GWILLIE,

Thanks very much for the information. I got my three new Foxes back out and looked at the mounting lugs. The two engines that were in the 40BBRC boxes had a "40" stamped on the lug, while the one I had in the 36BBRC box had no marking at all. Must be I had them in the right homes.

Maybe Ill find a muffler or two at the WRAM Show tomorrow and I can try running one of the .40s soon.

Thanks again for the Fox information!

Good flying,
desmobob
