While going through my tigre 46's I found 1 engine that has no ring. Anybody know anything about this engine?

Sleeve appears to be steel or cast iron. Piston looks chrome plated or aluminum. It is an older no lug case and the sleeve has no bridging for a ring. I may take it apart and get a better read on the parts. It is brand new or a very good rebuild but no name other then supertigre.  

My bad it is a 35. I had it in my box of 46's and did not check the size. Still what is it. Is it any good for stunt. Like on a smoothie. Is it a combat engine. It looks just like a 46 except for no gap under the cylinder head.

If it is a 35 it would be a combat motor if there is no baffle on the piston, if there is a baffle it is a stunt motor. That is the G-21 35, there is also a plain bearing 35 that also has both flat top and baffled piston versions
Does it have  G-21 on it  or does it have a  "C"  on it?

The engine has a flat top piston, stunt venturi and g21-35. It has 1 exhaust port/no bridge and 2 intake ports/with bridge. It has no C anywhere but came with a very large short venturi.
