   CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
   *Cox Engine of The Month* Submit your pictures! (Aug 2013) -1210

       Rules: You may post *one (1) picture of an engine or a group of engines that are alike (for example: a collection of Space Bug Jr.s that feature each color tank). The engine must be a Cox engine, it can be stock or parts built. Cox engines using aftermarket or handmade parts and multi-cylinder engines are allowed as long as they feature Cox made crankcase(s) and cylinder(s). Although proof isn't required, engines that are built using aftermarket or handmade parts have to be able to run. A good example of a non-running homemade engine that wouldn't qualify for this contest is found HERE.

       *You may post a 2nd picture as long as it is is showing another view or detail of the engine(s) being displayed in the first picture.

       After 5 days, the first 10 pictures will be moved to another topic to be voted on by other members. The winner will have their engine displayed on the sidebar of the forum and forever listed on the past winners page.

       Looking forward to see what you guys come up with! Good Luck!

Can't say for sure. It was a high school engineering project and I think they clear our student accounts each summer. I'll see if I can get it when school starts at the end of the month. Here's the original thread I made for it. https://www.coxengineforum.com/t4754-3d-printed-cox-babe-bee

Galbreth, or Galbreath can't remember the correct spelling. You can still buy them new though.

Yes, thats a Doug Galbreath head and a Nelson NL02 plug. The combo showed promise but never got it tuned just right before I sent it off to Kim for the race.                                                              I got them here

http://kittingittogether.com/glow-plugs/

I believe 1, 2 and 3 place Mouse engines all used this combo in the 2013 race.

I have been watching this competition for some time now and like all of the entries every month.

However, this one does not seem to follow the rules. The crankcase has been modified and the cylinder is not a Cox item.

The rules were meant for complete custom engines that didn't even look like cox engines, except for the cylinders.  I feel all the entries have followed those rules. For a long time, those engines were the only ones winning, so we had to change the rules to make it fair to everyone.

So if one posted a picture of a mint Taifun and slapped a Cox prop on it the engine could be voted on? Where do we draw the line?
