Ben Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) I’m looking for a four cylinder intake and carb as close to this as possible in 1/25 or 1/24. Has anyone seen one that’s similar? Edited January 12, 2018 by Ben
Casey Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Ben, try to find some engine pics of both the AMT Ford Courier and MPC Dodge D-50 kits. The Courier has a Mazda and the D-50 a Mitsubishi inline 4-cylinder engine, and one (or both) might have a decent transmission and transfer case, too.

Ok, I’m not sure if I have those kits in the stash but I’ll look.
Ben Posted January 12, 2018 Author Posted January 12, 2018 No luck on the Courier, it’s turbo charged. The Revell Courier has a V8, the D-50 looks very different and the MPC Datsun is way off as well.
Erik Smith Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) What’s it from, Ben? Thermostat/water intake on the manifold? oh edit - for the 22R? I’ve got a handful of 4 cylinder kits I can check through... Edited January 12, 2018 by Erik Smith
Erik Smith Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) Nothing really close. Checked MPC Chevette, AMT Probe and Beretta, Monogram Turbo T-Bird, AMT Horizon, MPC version of the Horizon thing...even a few 6s to see if they could be modified, but still, nada.

I think I’m gonna need to make it from scratch.
