The crank I have is cracked so I need a good one to get this beast running.  Thanks!

The parts list for the 1956 Fox 29R "bathtub" engine is attached.  Unfortunately, the part number for the crankshaft is '29RC' and a Google search for that will get you every Fox 29 R/C engine ever made, but not a 29R crankshaft with that part number.  You will probably have to cannibalize a donor engine -- if you can find one.  Are you trying to make a running engine?  I also included the 29R engine test from the May'58 Aeromodeller FYI.

Thanks for the tips guys!  A casual search continues. I would love to run it but it also makes a great display item.
