    If you'd like to keep that blower setup for the sbc in NYS, it would sure look good on old mangy once it's rebuilt and in the Whatever project... just saying

    The COX 049 engine is the stuff of young kids dreams. That lean out screw could bring that little engine to scream at about 20,000 rpm. WOW had a flash back ...from about 50 years ago! Good Stuff!!!

    Yup, the .049 was a lot of fun. .074, .15, .29, .35, were too. Still have them, although haven't sniffed burned nitro & caster oil from them in >45 yrs. Loved that sound... Will have to see iffen I can find the time to let 'em sing again, maybe this summer. Good memories.
