  1. Gene, the only one I ever saw was in a 1962 Galaxie.
  2. Very,very nice. Love it.
  3. Nobody said you couldn't be comfortable. Completed the wiring. Maybe I should have put the coils in front, I wonder if those long cables would be less efficient. Now I have to paint this without going outside the lines.
  4. Thanks guys, I'm having fun. This is the Ford SOHC 427, sold to me as the Cougar version. Looked all over for a picture, couldn't find one. Fictitious? SOHC V8, 427 cu.in./HP varies with induction.
  5. Ford FE 406, OHV V8, 406 cu.i./ 405 hp. (3X2 barrels).
  6. Ah OK, I have to make a flange on the side. I suppose I could get lazy and say it is an electric fuel pump and it isn't on the engine.
  7. Love it. I never thought I'd ever see a turbo slant six.
  8. Then you must have that CAT.
  9. Added fuel lines and linkages to the carbs and started the wiring.
  10. And so does Replicas and Miniatures: https://public.fotki.com/crstan/replican-and-miniat/replicas-and-miniat/100-3061-jpg.html
  11. Absolutely stunning.Where do you get 1:18 parts? From other diecasts?
  12. Shapeways has them 3D printed https://www.shapeways.com/product/VBPA3FKJX/1-24-flathead-ardun-head-kit?optionId=60717411&li=marketplace https://www.shapeways.com/product/LSZTB27K5/1-25-flathead-ardun-head-kit?optionId=60717420&li=marketplace
  13. Ford 292 Y-Block. OHV V8, 292 cu.in/ 198 hp.
  14. The venerable Stovebolt 6. Second generation 216. OHV 6, 216 cu.in./85 hp.
  15. The humble but ubiquitous Citroën 2CV. Here is an example of how important it is to erase molding seams. They stick out like sore thumbs. OHV Flat Twin, 602 cc./24 hp.
  16. Added some details and belts. This is the only picture I found with a fuel pump. Looks like it is on the same flange as the oil filler. Anyone know better?
  17. Then you must visit this thread: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/97646-background-diorama-flatheads-to-boxers-engine-rebuilders/
  18. The one closest to the door is a rod honing machine and the one on the stand is a rod cap grinder. I made them.
  19. Ferrari Testarossa: DOHC Flat 12, 4.9L/ 385 hp.
  20. Ferrari 250: DOHC 60 degree V12, 3.9L/276hp.
