Cool pics, Dave.
I have many of those same motors in my collection as well.
The Enerjets are the tops as far as I'm concerned.

Default Vintage motor usage update

Motor update. I used an old D12, pro jet E20, n crown F67
The D12 n E20 performed well. Maybe the projet E20 was delayed ejection. Slow to ignite using electric match. Crown F67 was even slower to move but boy did it move. Now the crown failed to eject. The crown was very difficult to remove, not sure if their was any ejection charge

Default Old motor website

I've got quite a few old rocket motors in a number of brands. Too many photos to put on here easily. Here's a link to my photos of my old motor collection: http://www.angelfire.com/co/m2rules/motors.html. I apologize in advance for the ads from the hosting site.

Some from my collection. That is a thunderbolt, lots from pro jet, prob prototypes G120. Enerjets. Mini max. Have bunch of old Estes, Centuri, and foreign motors from 1980 world championships. Any idea of their worth? For any?

Hi, Chaz,
That is an awesome collection!
I think it would be cool to have a motor that came out of Mable.

Those having Enerjet E24, F52, and F67 motors:
They aren't worth anything. Please send to me for proper disposition.

I can see from one of the pics that Enerjet was a division of Centuri, which makes sense as several of my Centuri boxes say Enerjet. I don't have any of the larger Enerjet motors, just the black power Centuri Mini-Max F motor. Anyone heard of ACS/Reaction systems or have any idea why they would've made a 42mm motor?
