Default Diff between round and square OS .91?

Is there a performance differnce either through engine life or reliabilty, etc.. between the round head version of the O.S. 91 and the square headed version

Mike

If I remember right one is for the ramtec or dynamax and the one with the bigger head is for the byron.

Yeah you're comparing the large and the small head. There are two different versions of the small head one.

There is the older one which is simply a round head. damn near a perfect circle. The newer design has a square-ish head.

I think the squarish head version is just a "sport" engine, not a Ducted Fan engine. I have a new OS 91vrdf and it has the round head.
I could be wrong.

I just looked at the Tower web site, and, indeed, they do show a small head version with what looks like a smaller "Byron" head.
But you can't buy one...

Never mind...I think both pictures are of the Byron version.
