I think when the 40th anniversary came out they were generally thought of as being the best year for the Fox 35 Stunt. What do you think? I owned a couple and they did seem to be a little better than prior years.

Anyway, I have some nice parts to build one but I need a crankcase. I was wondering if the 50th and 60th anniversary engines were as good because I wanted a case with the big exhaust flange.

I built an engine with a 50th case many years ago but it would really bind up. I eventually ended up boring out the cylinder and putting a different sleeve in. Runs good but I have Fox 35 sleeve that's chromed and fitted from Glen Dye so I have to use a stock case.

Just wanting to know others experience with 50th and 60th engines. Did they make a 70th?

Thanks,
MM

   

I would suggest that no matter what else might be wrong with it, you need the 50th or later just because to use it in stunt you really need to run a muffler.

There was a rumor the black case 50th engines were just hacked out display units not ment to run.

   I think it said something like that in the instructions. I would be curious if it is any more "hacked out" than a regular engine.
