Hi Paul,

The Series 21 .35 is identical to the Red Head .35 except for the Dykes ring in the Series 21 and its extra weight.  It is a typical 1960's 4-2 style .35.  Not a real "powerhouse"............

   If you get a good one, it's a remarkably steady runner with an excellent predictable 4-2 break if desired. The problem is finding a good one. The quality control was the absolute pits and makes Fox look like a precision outfit. Finding one that runs right is a complete crap-shoot, fortunately, they are (justifiably) very cheap.

Paul, if you can find one the 40 would likely be better.  It seems whenever a mfg. build several sizes of motor on the same case the largest one makes a better stunt engine

As far as the fits go, you may end up having to try several rings or get from one of the suppliers(frank Bowman, etc.)
