Need help identifying engines

1. Jim Walker Firecracker, it came with a hand held bulb and a long thin tube which connected to that throttle flapper for throttle control.


       Engine to the right of it assuming it's #3    

Early Norvel, if it's marked 1.0 in ink it's a .061. if .08 it's a .049. It could be a Big Mig which has 5 internal cutouts on the cylinder liner ( Visible with plug removed) or 3 ports indicating a AME which is a higher performance, somewhat like Medallion vs TD. Big Mig and AME versions were available in both displacements.

2. Royal Anderson Spitfire .065 displacement


4. I believe it's a G-mark .061.     .061 is casted onto the bypass on the opposing side that you show.

5       G-Mark .030          Engine with no number to the right is a Gilbert .07

6 K&B Allyn Sky Fury       Engine with no number to the right is a O&R mite .049

Hey you guys are good I want the one with the bear on it

That's funny, when I first posted my take on the engines, I didn't even see Chris's post. Pretty darn funny actually

Well. I feel like an idiot...I see no bear! What am I missing?

Thanks everyone and that was helpful

The Norvel is an AME .061

For the Fury, is it "Allyn" or "Aurora"?

For the O & R, is it "Midjet" or "Mite"?

The Fury was originally produced by Allyn Sales Co-BEFORE they merged with K&B-and available in various models-inboard, outboard and aero. AFAIK only the 049 was produced-the larger twins only came after the merger with K&B...so your engine could be referred to as an Allyn Sky Fury 049....or equally validly as a K&B-Allyn Fury....depending on how long production continued after the merger-but definitely NOT as an Aurora anything...

Ref: AMEE pp4-5

I stand by my original identification of the O&R as a 'Midjet' not a 'Mite'-the former has the large tank, the latter is tankless and with a shorter crankshaft bearing...

Ref: AMEE p186

Sorry, I got em mixed up. O&R had eagle and O K used the bear. Early Midjet has brass eagle on the cylinder, I was thinking bear.

Thanks for the clarifications
