FOX AIR COOLED MOTOR
HAS UNIQUE FEATURE

One OF the exclusive features of the
Fox engine is the design and construc-
ton OF the air cooled cylinders.
In making the cylinder castings the
wall is cast one and one-fourth inches
thick and the cooling fianges. instead OF
being of steel or other metal set into the
wall, are milled out of the solid cast iron
OF the cylinder itself. This eliminates
all possibility of an imperfect Joint be-
tween the cylinder wall and the cooling
flanges and a consequent loss of heat
radiation. At the same time this man
ner Of machining tho nanges so greatly
strengthens the cylinders that It is pos
sible to use q very thin cylinder wall.
This is of particular advantage in
rapidly transmitting the cylinder wall
heat to the fanges.
At the top of the cylinder the wall ie
domed out to permit the use Of maxi
mum size intake and exhaust valves.
Naturally this construction is much more
expensive than the methods commonly
used, but Fox engineers contend it is
we'll worth while from the standpoint Of
power. cooling and results actually ac-
complished
