Power Train!

O.S. 35 FP converted to C/L with O.S. parts. The venturi is an O.S. 25 FP-S venturi. And I added a head gasket. Other wise the engine is stock. It has awesome power and torque. The plane is a little heavy, but with this engine that doesn't matter much. This thing starts easy and runs steady with minimal vibration. The engine has ABC construction with Schnuerle porting and a plain bearing supported crankshaft.
The fuel tank is a 4 oz. Snubnose with standard vents from Smith Model Products.
The prop is 10 x 6 EW.
This stays out on the lines during overheads and anything else yoou want to do.
Vive la Ringmaster!
