Zippi Posted August 15, 2023 Posted August 15, 2023 I can't remember if I posted anything about this before but I had this site bookmarks as it interested me. This fellow machines engines and accessories for a very reasonable price. Has anyone purchased one of his engines as I'm interested in the Top Fuel Dragster Engine Kit that's made out of Pewter & Aluminum and sells for $22.95. If you have any pics that would be great. https://scalereprosplus.com/
64SS350 Posted August 15, 2023 Posted August 15, 2023 They are nice, but in my opinion, too heavy for a plastic model. I have a SBC and a BBC set, but I plan on selling them. I have tried ways to polish certain parts to a higher shine, to no avail. Not a pewter guy.

bluestringer Posted August 17, 2023 Posted August 17, 2023 Bob, I've bought a couple of distributors from them, but no engines. The only thing I can tell you is I had no problems and shipping was fast.

Oldriginal86 Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 Where would one find pictures of said engines? Are they meant for display and not installed in a model?
