  Do you want long shaft or short shaft?  You just might want to point that out.

This is going in a Humongous.  So I would be looking for the short shaft engine.

    The short shaft engine would be the easiest to find. Even the R/C version can be converted with a venturi and a proper NVA. . Search out Jim Lee's contact info, as I know he has done that in the past and may have some to sell. I don't know what I may have or where to start looking!!

David,

     I have a NIB short shaft Fox 59 that I probably ought to sell.  I was going to put it in a Big Job but I am taking that to the Las Vegas contest this weekend to sell.  The 59 has great compression and feels excellent.  I was planning on using it myself but I'm giving up on O T S as I keep mixing up the pattern with the modern one.  Old timers disease.  If you are in the area and going to L V I could bring it with me and we can talk.  Otherwise I am busy packing for the trip and wont be back until next Tuesday.
     Jim Lee makes a head shim that mellows out the 59.  I was planning on getting one for this engine.  He has a Humongous with a Fox 59 himself.  I have been flying one myself but mine only weighs 38 oz and uses a Magnum 36.  Make me an offer if you are interested.  I don't think you will find a nicer one.
