I seem to have smaller horizontal mounting engines sorted as far as display goes.

Maybe just variations on a concept.

Lightly used French STAB - 1939/40

This one is different setup so I am thinking along this sort of support

The dimple on the underneath of the tank can be the third man.

up in the thread you have a pic of an engine with a club prop and 2 spark plugs.... Is it twin cylinder or just has twin plugs?

What is the smallest Spark plug you have (not glow plug)

The two plug head is for a single cyl.............something about adding a confirmed spark every revolution.

There are two thread sizes that I can see in my flock:

0.245" (long and short reach) with either 5/16" or 3/8" Hex.

0.245" Two piece with 7mm and 10mm hexes. (that one from the French STAB)

0.375" with a 1/2" hex

Why?

I also have boxes of electric models but not one of these.

I consider this as up to seven types of CRAZY!

Still keeping me eyes open for parts for the 1/3 scale Seagull. 18mm thread plug would work out just nice at 6mm thread not sure on the hex size yet.
I have all of the castings but havent had the time to do anything with them yet.

That electric outboard is real nice. ...but not at that price! :shock:
