Kris Morgan Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Www.scalemodelingbychris.com Really nice engine kits complete with a prewired distributor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 This AMT parts-pack contains a smallblock Chevy V8 with 2 build options, an old blown 392 Chrysler FirePower Hemi, a V8 Pontiac, again with 2 optional setups, and a Corvair flat-6. The Allison aircraft engine in the background is also in there. You do NOT get 7 engines, as the package photo suggests, but the 5 you DO get are very good quality. Revell also made excellent engine kits over the years. The last release of the smallblock Chevy V8, Pontiac V8, Ford 427 V8, and the Cadillac (labeled wrong as a 354 but actually correct for all 331-365-390 engines) didn't sell well, and they can be had cheap on ebay. Revell also made a Buick "nailhead" and a blown Chrysler Hemi in the lineup years ago. They are both exceedingly rare and somewhat expensive now.

10thumbs Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I got recently auf ebay the Revell kits, 2 each of Pontiac 421, Chevy 283, Ford 427 and the Cadillac motor. 8 motors for $25 !! I've seen some decent Resin Kits for small money too, much less than the Ross Gibson pieces for $25 and up. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
