Fox 36X ABC piston/liners Why?

[frank mccune]

    Hello All:

    Why the demand for these p&c? In what even are they used?

                                                                         Tia,

                                                                         Frank McCune

Perhaps cuz there is a small sub set of our hobby that is reliving their past and building old skool combat planes and want to use the period correct engines. Or they just want (like me) to take their older engines and breathe life back into them for posterity sake.

I have about a dozen older Fox combat engines mostly .36 MK IV and MK VI (no .36x) and would love Brian to do a run of P/C so I can gift them to my son and let him get 30+ years of use like I did flying VooDoo, Sneaker, Mongoose, Big Iron etc...

To quote an old motorcycle aphorism: "If I have to explain...you wouldn't understand".

cause they are loud, powerful, cranky and loads of fun to mess with.  Like a classic motorcycle, old tractor or restored truck  Also as a kid, I never had them, too much money for me.

A Fox 36X with a good P&C assy. should be a good fun engine. Single needle bearing, decent rod.
