Is anyone familiar or have used this engine for CL? I suppose someone could make a venturi for it.

Fred Krueger set one (.37 size) up for stunt and shows videos of running and flying. He posted in Engine set-up tips here:

I bought one and set it up for 75/80 MPH combat. Works great with same size venturi as we use on the ASP's and Magnums. (10% nitro/20%oil)
We use 9-4 APC or 9-5 Master air screw. Same mounting pattern as ASP, Magnum, GMS, and OS ball bearing (small case) 25's, 28's, 32's, and 36's. Weighs about 5-6 grams more than an ASP 32

I would hazard a guess that it's pretty close to the OS .32F if it is close to the ASP.32
Type at you later,

Here on the East Coast we only allow plain bearing engines. It's hard enough to get people started on plain bearing engines and the extra power available from ball bearings makes it harder to stick to the speed limit, plus the extra cost(usually), dirt in the ball bearings, etc.

Absolutely and I apologize for not getting back to you. I have not bought one but the info you gave me helped a lot. Thank you again.
