Big BP motors.....

Something to watch out for...some folks have said that the delay/ejection trains on old Enerjet E's became unreliable. If you've kept the motor in a controlled environment I can almost guarantee it will thrust properly.

I still have a couple E24's and at least one F52 squirreled away somewhere, plus one RDC Enerjet 8 and two RDC Enerjet 22's (99 N-sec, about a G62). Those will never see the hot end of an igniter...

It was a used case, but for a long time ( and maybe still do someplace ) I had a engine marked as enerjet but the thing was a monster, about 2 times as long as an F100, found it out at the Dry lake bed people fly at.

The last time I tried to fly any Enerjets was back in 1989-1990, at TRA launches before they required certified motors. As Mark states, the propellant worked great, but there was no ejection. Never checked if the delay train didn't burn, or if the ejection failed. Fortunately the one I recall was in a long skinny rocket that did a backslider style glide recovery.
