horsepower Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) You have to remember that hood scoop sits on the top of the carbs after the manifold is in place, and after you move the motor back to its proper placement,the scoop will set almost against the windshield, and the base will be even with the hood line.

W-409 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Yep building that throttle linkage is not the easiest part, but it can be done. I did similar throttle linkage as you will need on this one to my '69 Charger Daytona using copper wire and Detail Master Carburetor Linkage Photo Etch Set. I hope this picture will give you an idea on how it can be done. This might not be the only right way to do it though. I am interested in seeing more of this one!

I got a pleasant surprise, I picked up one of the cheapy $14.95 Harbor Freight specials and it works out pretty good, used it for some fine detail work and it surprised me, and I bought it so I'd have something to use just for primer, but it's working for everything, but I'm not going to even try it on the high solids urethane clears, or really coarse metallic, just to fine of a needle size.

dragzz Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 w-409 tys for that pic that will help me out a lot tys again horsepower the iwata tr that u see i will use that for house of coler paints as i will for primmer i have .30 neddle and .50 for primmer its work really good for that as for water colors i will use paasche vl as the pigment is a bit thicker thats the diff just thot i let u know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
