RE: vintage nitro engines need help identifying pics inside
The engine with the blue spinner is a "G" series Super Tigre (probably an ABC .40). In it's day a very good engine.
The dual plug engine is not a Thunder Tiger, but a Super Tigre (probably a .60). Also a good engine in its day.
The engine with round exhaust adapter is a Pico that was made in Italy. (probably a .60). They made good strong engines, but they were heavy. The OS .20 has a non-stock Perry carburetor.
