Help!
Help me identify this motor
[HR][/HR] This is a 78 size motor and the exhaust does have a baffle .. Anyone know what it is and maybe a value? Someone said it is a Fox 78 from the 70s but with the adjustment screws and the in-exhaust baffle I would think mid 60s.

Fox .78 from the 60s-70s. Value is $25-75 depending on how it runs. Based on how yours looks, I'd guess $25-50 tops.

I think it's a Fox 74 like the one I have going by the red head with twin plugs and the carb. Also there's an indication of a 74 underneath that muffler retaining screw. There were two versions, the first had a needle roller big end while the later had a normal bushed rod.
