Monogram 1971 Plymouth Satellite/GTX Kit--Engine Swap

[stavanzer]

I have the most Recent boxing of this kit, in Dom's GTX Boxing with the Larger Wheels.

I want to swap in a Hemi. Which of the Comparable 1/24 Scale Mopar kits from that Era would make a suitable donor?

I have a few of the older Monogram kits to rob parts from, so it mostly just finding which kit has a close-to-drop-fit Hemi.

Thanks, Alan

The Monogram Hemi Cuda comes to mind. Been awhile since I seen one, so I won't vouch for it's accuracy.

I have the Petty Superbird kit in 1/24 scale and plan on doing the same thing with a hemi motor from a 'Cuda kit....🙂👍

Ages ago (1995) I mated the Hemi from the Monogram '71 'Cuda to the Torqueflite from the '71 Satellite / GTX . 

I did that so that I could keep the kit's console, and, more importantly not have to add a Dana 60.

I used the Hemi from the 71 Cuda kit in mine.

Thanks to all who replied. Looks like I need to see if I still have the Hemi 'Cuda in the stash.

If not, I guess I'll be buying one.

I have the standard revell/monogram gtx kit 1/24 and I swapped in a revell 1/25 hemi from the 67gtx? I think fits and guy can’t tell the difference, I added. Fireball model works resin carbs and some details but either way it will work
