Hi TarheelRick, Thank you for the compliments on Quad AL, I decided to make the front exhaust point forward as the carburetors are in the middle, Unlike the real one i was thinking of a fire hazard. I forgot to mention there are 96 exhaust pipes (i ordered these 4 at a time from Shapeways 3 D printing). Thanks again to everyone for the kind words. Jr. Roberts

This is a model of Jim Lytle's Quad Al dragster from the mid 1960's that i just finished custom building. The model has (4) V1710 Allison air plane engines, I Chopped the Fiat body, Custom built chassis and drive train, Including some misc. parts from the Revell Tommy Ivo Showboat dragster & The Revell Mickey Thompson Challenger 1 salt flats race car. I saw the original car last year at a car show and it blew me away, So i had to recreate one for myself. There was a magazine article in the October 1965 Rod & Custom magazine that helped with the reference's in building this wild dragster. There are also some misc. articles on the web. I started the build in May 2021 and just finished today (January 30, 2022). I tried to wire & plumb it accordingly. Thanks for looking, Jr. Roberts
