I say homeopathy. :)

But, these are stunt engines and not high performance engines. More often I have found myself fighting against overcooling, not overheating. So propably it is just fine as it is but certainly I would be interested in trying what better cooling would do.
Besides, it is allways easier to increase temperature if need comes. And you save some grams, too!

I like your sense of humour Laurie but all joking aside I reckon that the budget was spent on anodising rather than a milling operation simply as a point of difference in marketing.

The milling could have been done as a standard part of making the head, BEFORE the anodizing, would require very little extra

Would look great with fins!

Doesn't look all that bad in the ARGO II, but the model is cut for the OS LA 46.

Now would be the time to make the change.

For anyone interested, the Enya Classic .35 Red Head is back on ebay. 149.95

10 available for those that may want one.

Different case though, has the square venturi case.

Wonder why more of the other .35 Classic wasn't produced, like the first offering?

The 35 Classic Type A has a 35 III crankcase with a 29 V front housing, bearings and crank. It has the white plastic venturi insert.
The 35 Classic Type B has a 35 III crankcase, front housing, bearings and crank. It has a neat looking aluminum venturi insert.
The round venturi Model 5224 B engines were never produced as ball bearing engines. When the Model 5225 engines came along they were produced in both the ball bearing and bronze bushing plain bearing configuration.

Just an update on this thread, Bob (shtterman on ebay) has 2 of the Type B engines for sale but what I found interesting is that the square aluminum venturiis are available as spare parts.

Bill,

That engine has been listed and relisted a few times. Seems there's little interest in it?

Or it could be a good selling regular item, since he has "more than 10 available"  :)

Could be, but I don't remember seeing 10 available of this particular engine?

I see 3 available currently, so you may be correct about sales.

The engine didn't sell in December, however many he has?

I purchased the one with the round case venture. I hope it's a good engine?

The link you quoted was not to the engine, but rather to a venturi insert, that is what I followed and commented on  :)

I suspect all of his engines sit for a while, just the nature of selling to a smaller market.

..yes, to absorb heat, but how about transferring it into airstream? I'd just chuck it in lathe and cut some cooling fins, a little like that:

Re-reading a little bit of engineering, anodizing ups the emissivity of shiny, raw aluminum from.06 or so up to .8 or so.  Just letting the shiny finish naturally oxidize ups the emissivity(radiation emission) up to .6 or so.  So a heavy anodized coating can make a substantial increase in heat dissipation.

I think I'll anodize a head on an F2D engine and see what happens.

I'd love to try one of the new engines but they're a little pricey for me. I'm buying a couple of the new venturiis for my older engines. They originally came with 3 different size venturiis, 7, 7.5 and 8mm. 2 of mine, bought used, have the 8mm while the new venturiis are 7.5mm according to Bob.
