I am trying to identify the model number, resistance rating, and what cars it's best suited for controlling. I've found some pictures online I compared it to, and I believe it could be a KOFM366.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jason

The 2 on top of the heatsink signifies it as a 2 ohm.
What type of cars do you typically race?

I assumed that the "2" could mean a 2 ohm variant however all I was finding when searching were 25 or 45 ohm non-brake models.
I also picked up a Parma Turbo at the swap meet knowing that the Daytona resistors are available in a wide range still.

Mike Knows Koford !!!!!
Bring it to Carl's Wen. night it should work good !!!
And the Parma is ezy to change.... Look for the "wet Wound " resistors .....
SEE You Wen. ??? We have cars to lend .....

If the controller does not work, pry off the flat alum heatsink to locate the break in the foil under it. The material IS hard to solder, but it can be done. The wattage rating is similar to a parma turbo, so do not try to use it for a big motor.
