Visible Harley Twin Cam 88 Engine 1/2 Scale

[DougS]

I've been collecting models now for too many years to count including the Testors visible engine thinking I would have plenty of time to build them when I retire. I've been retired now for about eight years and haven't built much of anything yet. I finally decided I need to make time to have a little fun. Here's a couple of pictures of the finished engine.

 

 

 

 

I bought it as-is and it was missing about half of the internal parts so that's why it is only half visible.

I thought the carb was pretty poorly done so I did an internet search and found out it isn't a carb but fuel injected, but still pretty basic. I did quite a bit of modifying to make the efi a little more realistic by adding screws, making springs, installing choke plate, opening up air cleaner mounting holes and electrical conections and reshaping other areas. I've left the air cleaner off so everything can be seen.

Now I'm inspired to keep going on my hundreds of projects.
