Burlington?

Oh boy...

You didn't think to ask the seller what size the motor was? Or perhaps why the displacement markings were chiseled/filed/worn off?

I guess a picture would help decide what motor you bought.

You paid only $5 for that engine? You lucky rascal. My guess is that it is either an SF or F SR series. I'm leaning toward the SF at the moment.

lol yeah it was at the bottom of a pile of junk and i asked the guy what size it was and he said some guy used it for racing thats why the #s were scratched off.. i think is a bunch of bull but i still paid 5.00 he wanted 15.00 and i kind of talked him down due to the #s being scratched...lol the engine has awsome compression i just dont know the size..... :(

It might also be a .32F ABN engine from the early Nineties. They are really sweet running engines.

What size prop is mounted on it? Did it come with that prop?

no it didnt come with a prop thats a APC 8x5

RE: NEED HELP!!!!!
 
Went ot the OS site and it indicates that the 32F ABC came with a 3H carb standard. The .28 came with a 2H.
The engine is out of focus but pretty shiney, looks like you scored a nice deal there..........
