rssschris Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Has anyone biult the streamliner dragster from AMT`s double dragster kit ?

6bblbird Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I could have sworn that the original question was....... "I am wondering if any of the hemi options will fit under the engine cover or do you have to use the chevy engine ?" Anyone have an answer? I would also like to know if the Hemi fits the streamliner body. WF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Myers Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Looking at the instructions (novel idea) it looks as if the HEMI with the injectors "MAY" work, but the carb set up and blown version defiantly will NOT.FW (?) Here's your Stream liner, a long ago build,The Hemi does fit with out the engine cover. I wonder if you could work up a front drive blower set up ?The parts are there.

funhouse1 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Wow, some great stuff posted! Here's a couple of mine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curb Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 The Hemi should work in the Streamliner. Just use the Potvin Front Blower asssembly. The engine cover may meed trimming at the edges but you'll have to check that out. I have the Streamliner(Cad powered) and Dragster(Allison powered) on the bench. I just finished the Fiat, Walt's Puffer A/A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rssschris Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 Thanks for the pictures guys, lot of good stuff there . I`m was tring to decide what way to build mine. Decided to pick up a couple more & build all the versions. As far as the Hemi fitting under the Streamliners hood, Didn`t AMT`s 53 Ford pickup have a fuel injection setup for it`s optional Hemi engine ?

Greg Myers Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Has anyone given much thought to the seam on the top of the stream liner? I'm thinking an aircraft type build, where everything inside is finished and then the body half's are glued together, then the body opening is sealed with tape and the body sanded smooth and finished.
