This is a two part inquiry post:

A few days ago I was looking around at different online model stores for aftermarket engine kits and came across one site that had a Chrysler Slant Six resin engine kit. These last few days I'm going crazy finding the website. (I know, I should have bookmarked it), I know it wasn't in the list of sites here. Any help would be appreciated. I even did a simple google search and came up with nothing except the 1:1 types.

The second inquiry is there a resin kit of a 1964 Dodge Dart kit?

It was probably the Ross Gibson resin cast Slant Six engine, like so:

Pretty much made obsolete by Lindberg tooling up a very nice Slant Six engine and including it in a few kits in the 2000s, While the Lindberg Slant Six includes both automatic and manual transmissions, it represents an early style /6 with the ribbed valve cover. Easy to sand smooth if you are replicating a later /6.

Good info here:

Gibson died a few years back, and now these engine kits are in the Hen's Teeth section of your local supermarket.
