Yep. Small chamber head is the early version. These are actually friendlier - there is talk on Flitline about it. At least for the .40s which I’ve had many of. I had a trumpet shaped head...

Are the correct width bearings being installed? Are they seating completely? I’ve had bearings that didn’t seat completely bind up when the prop was tightened. Does it only bind when the prop is...

Fox parts are hard to come by. If Mecoa doesn’t have them, try eBay or the forum classifieds. Put out a “wanted” ad. However, if all you’re looking for is o-rings and gaskets, I suggest making...

You could also give the backplate area a whack with a piece of wood with the case hot as well - this has worked for me in the past as well. The fact is the aluminum case will expand more than the...

I do the hardwood bang with all of my engines. If the case is hot enough, the bearings will come out. If they don’t come out, heat it up hotter. Like I said - I had to run one engine up to 400F...

Try 350F instead. I’ve had to go as high as 400F to get bearings out of one particular engine, but 350F usually does the trick. If using the oven, heat for no less than 10 minutes. The oil in...

Check to see if the wire circlip is missing. Fox engines seem to spit circlips out often enough that Duke Fox went to using a roll pin pressed in the side of the piston to retain the wristpin in...

The MkX carb is better IMO. If I had an engine with an MkX, I’d leave it. UNLESS it’s too big of a choke for the engine used.
