MVVS identity
Can someone please help me identify the MVVS engine I have. I bought the engine used and have no idea what it is other than a 40 size. It has a gold head and is VERY fast. I am not sure what other info would be of any help. If any further info is needed I will try to get it .
Thank you
Tey

RE: MVVS identity
Picture please!
If it has an R/C carb on it, it could be the 40 GFS/R "Quickie" engine, which was built for pylon racing.

Reggie,
If it looks like the photo below and has a 9 mm choke carburettor, it is the #3068 Quickie engine.
It is not intended to compete in Class 428 so it is not in the same league as a Jett, or a Nelson Q-500 engine, but it is quite inexpensive and is stronger than all sport engines. It even has a good idle and transition.
Right after break-in on 5% nitro, it can spin an MA 9x6 at 18,300 RPM.
