OS Max 21 FSR RC Buggy & Car Racing Model Engine Vintage! 

One vintage OS Max from Japan!

A vintage mid 1970's OS Max, the very first OS Schnuerle ported 1/8 RC car engine.

The chief engineer at OS turned the crankcase about 30 degrees clockwise thereby improving volumetric efficiency & gas flow into larger inlet ports & eliminated leakage associated via gudgeon pin & the gudgeon pin circlips (the bits that can break above 20,000rpm).  The crankcase is a 1-piece diecast aluminium alloy affair, machined con-rod bushed at both ends (2 lube holes at the big-end side), hardened chrome molybdenum steel crankshaft supported in dual ball bearings, buggy cylinder head with horizontal fins & the easy to tune twin needle OS 2C car RC carb with automatic mixture control.

Tech Specs (from OS)
Displacement: 3.463cc
Bore: 16.6mm
Stroke: 16mm
Checked weight: 218g

This engine could be used in a vintage 1/8 Kyosho buggy, e.g. Dune, Circuit, Peanuts, Datsun / Nissan Fairlady 240Z, Landjump, etc, or could be put on display as one of the most sought after OS car engines (the 1st OS FSR 1/8 car model engine).  

Condition wise, this engine is new & turns over smoothly.  Engine comes with shelf worn box, papers (2C RC carb instructions & a copy of the 21FSR ABC instructions is included for information) & tools set in open packet (spanner, Allen key & RC carb needle).  The patina & burnish reflect its age.  Please see photos.

International bidders are welcome!  Shipping worldwide at cost with tracking number. 

The OS Max 21 FSR engine; perfect for the vintage 1/8 scale model!
