I meant for turbochargers making more horsepower than the factory supercharger. Edited the thread title.

Let’s say it’s a factory supercharger. Could a budget semi-custom manifold be made removing the rotors, with a block off plate for the throttle body and an inlet to replace the snout? Thanks. Cheapskate in Chillicothe

Fujimi? Esci?

Wow. Thanks!

I got an old book called “ Rolling Homes” that has home made RVs. Several started as 1948 International big rigs or lwb trucks. Does anybody make a resin cab? Are there any 1/16 resin cabs from that era? thanks. Lee

A White 3000 bus? Wow, that is cool. Good job on it , too. ??

I think this search might be more trouble than it’s worth. The guy at MCW said I would need to get info on the color. That makes perfect sense, but it would be a lot less trouble to mix something myself and shoot for a match with the box art.

Wow! Thanks.

I didn’t see Kenwood blue at MCW. It’s not a color for something for something wildly popular like a factory 1969 Camaro color, but I saw another seller with two shades of blue for a 1930s Bugatti “tank” race car. I’ll have to keep looking. If no one sells a good match, it’s not the end of the world. It means no one can say mine is inaccurate. Pretty much.

Was anyone doing it back in the 1960s? Maybe folks like Michele Conti? Was the metal grille in Tamiya’s old 1/24 Lotus Seven made of photetch, or made a different way? I remember being really impressed with that as a teenager back around 1984 or so. To be fair, information traveled a lot slower then. We didn’t have all the answers at our fingertips. Thanks. Lee

I would like to be more accurate than Tamiya’s recommendation in the instructions. Thanks. Lee

If advance payment would help make it happen, let me know. I would REALLY like to have several of these. Thanks. Lee

P-51 Mustang. At speed

I had that made into a solid 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of decal years ago. I’ll have to see if I can find it. I’m not 100% sure it is accurate for an original Royale. I believe that pattern is from a replica that is or was in the Sinsheim Auto+Technic museum in Germany. I could be wrong on that.

You’re welcome. I don’t remember what markings were on the plane, but it was all white and the pylons had rearward facing ECM pods. They looked like cylinders faired into the back end of the pylon, with that pink/purple glass on the back end.

When I was deployed to Macedonia in 1999-2000, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Of Staff, General Hugh Shelton, visited the base. That guy had a lot of rank, responsibility, and clout. He showed up in a 707. That’s a whole lotta plane.

I gave mine Purina Beneful topped with gravy made from chicken scraps, boiled chicken liver, a little bit of carrots and apple. Put the ingredients in a blender and there you go. I also made “jerky” in the dehydrator. It had chicken, boiled chicken liver, and dried blueberries. When dried, the pieces looked like Chihuahua turds, but she loved them.

I did listen to this in between calls a few days ago. Definitely worth a little bit of your time. The part at Reagan’s use of the Blackbird over North Korea was great.

It’s just about bedtime, but now I have something to listen to on the road tomorrow. I have seen him in a documentary about the SR-71. He mentioned hitting some pretty high Mach numbers on an operational mission. Possibly after strikes on Libya in 1986. My memory is a bit fuzzy on the dates. Btw there is a guy in Europe who is 3D printing a 1/24 scale SR-71. That would be an awesome ceiling hanger.

It seems hit or miss since Chrome Tech USA shut down.

Wow. Thanks!

I wondered if you might weigh in on this. Would you happen to know where I could find an old 3.4??

Can the early chrome cam covers replace the ugly, ribbed cam covers on later engines?

The Red Pig?
