One becomes a master with time .... its said it take 20 years to master any given skill or ability. Your not a master if you can work resin or if you know how to scratch build a holley carb from soda bottle tops. A master is anyone who has worked there craft for 20 years. Constantly perfecting the things he has learned over time . The one characteristic prominent in most masters is improving on learned skills .

Good job with that fix bro, this project is still a jem! Wow I just noticed this thread has 161 pages keep it commin man!

Hey fellas Ive known for a while that my right head was shorter than the left so i need to add to it. I soldered another end on and filled the gap with solder then shaped and smoothed it. now the valve covers fit just right.
here you can see the material added to the right side, i had already done some shaping.
a lil more shaping and the top has been ground out.
see the valve cover fits just right now. (man I cant wait to get some paint on these ugly parts)
Thanks for joining me see ya again soon.......
-
Hey Ron great job thus far. Paint looks crystal clear. Im just wondering about the tunnel ram and blower. Im pretty sure you cant use one with the other(but ive been wrong before). A tunnel ram is used with carbs and a blower has a whole different type of manifold. Im not tryin to count rivets here but. Youve done alot not to get that detail correct. Keep up the good work.
-
Thx Glen i cant wait to see this one finished too.....
I modified my oil pan by adding the pump ports, I also notched it for the filter it not done but close.
Inside......
started prepairing the carbs for detailing.....
And heres my proof that I can build a box stock kit lol...
thx for joinin me ..................

I'll say it again Bro.... outstanding work!
-
Thanks Chris for your help...
hey fellas here a short video of the crank and pistons moving.

I just read thru 25 pages of pure art you have an amazing talent Dave... This is and outstanding project but nothing short of what i expect to roll off your work bench. keep it up buddy.

Hello I'm Romell I've built a few models on this forum and I had to depart for a while for personal reasons. But I've decided I'd share what I've been working on. I'm posting pics of where the build stands as of today and I'll be posting build pics to get you caught up as well. Aside from a few 3d printed parts almost everything else was crafted from brass. If youd like to see some of my other builds I believe there's links in my signature. Anyway I hope you enjoy...
