Good luck! The 5 second delay version was a really useful engine.

No violation. It meets one of the criteria required to stay on topic. You referred to the original subject item — B14s.

Those B14-7s are the real-deal old-school drilled core big-nozzle boost-kikkers.
Good luck to whoever bids on em. They are already too high $$$.

I like using either a 1/2A6-0 or an A8-0 booster to a B14-7.
Slow liftoff then super-streak upper stage.

That does sound like a fun combination.
