thank you.

good luck on the 1:1 build. perhaps we'll meet up cruisin' somewhere.

just eyeballin' it. i think you could get pretty close. give me some real dimensions and i'll make an accurate representation.

the plug spacing could certainly be done the way it is in the model if so desired. simply grind the cam to the correct opening sequence, use the correct rockers and move the plugs to the same side of the valve layout. here are 5 small block chevy heads. 1.std. sbc wedge 2. sbc buick symmetrical port wedge 3. sbc symmetrical port splayed valve 4. sb2 mirror image 5. sbc hemi head all these heads bolt to a sbc block. all use different intake and exhaust locations, valve angle and position (wegde, splayed ,hemi) layouts, rocker arm layouts, pushrods, cam shafts and spark plug locations. everything your saying that doesn't work on your version of the v-12 could be changed to work for this design if so desired.

love it Tim!!!

3 pedal cars ad trucks are the best Francis!!! keep up the amazing work.

you can come build my engines any day Tim. beautiful man!!!!!

Killer stuff Paul. your hard work is paying off!!! good for you!!! keep at it buddy. i have been looking at a project to put that killer strange rear into. just gotta make time in between the big stuff!!!

your headers on this car should not be below the chassis. so, instead of chopping up your entire chassis. if you simply modify the existing chassis / floor pan you can achieve moving the headers up to a point higher than the main rails on the chassis.

a better, more accurate way to do this would be to build it more like the real deal. if you'd like some pics and info. i could give them to you. LMK.

i can only imagine the smile on your face right now Tim.

francis, your dominator is turning out fantastic. i'm a big carb guy my self. if you need any dimensions let me know as i own a few of these.

love this thing dude. i did this engine a while back in a more modern configuration for a salt flat car. one day i'll get to finish it. LOL.

WOW. nice job detailing this!!! super clean work. gotta love me some 1/8 scale.

well,..........you certainly have outdone yourself Tim!!!!! WOW,.... just freakin' WOW!!!!!

HOLY float bowls!!!!..........o.k. that was it ...i got nothing. speechless!!!!

THANK YOU very much, John! finding out we've inspired you to finish your project is wonderful. keep at it 'til you get the results you want.

don't worry Tim.....you'll find them................right after you make all the new ones!! happens to me all the time!!

Glad to see you back at the bench Tim. This bit of machining is almost to much to comprehend. Remarkable!!!!!!

thanks Martin!! we do love it. LOL.

HOLY VENTURI TIM MAN!!!! ?? that's one for the museum !!
