The Aeronca E-107 was one of the first low-cost reliable engines of the post-World War I era.[1]
[edit] Design and development
The E-107A was a production engine designed to replace a Morehouse engine on the first prototype of the Aeronca C-2. The first five were produced without cooling fins on the crankcase. A Winfleld Model 5 carburetor was standard for the engine.[2] The E-107 was replaced by the uprated E-113 engine based on the same design.[3]
