fiatboy Posted Wednesday at 08:09 PM Posted Wednesday at 08:09 PM Anybody have such an engine? What's a good kit to find such an engine? I am putting a NASCAR chassis, 1/24, under a '69 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1/25. (I wrote about this some time ago. I think I am going to need to buy a kit off of 'ebay'.) Did Ross Gibson ever make one of these? I think his engines were more like 1/23 scale, but I would try one. Thanks.

Wrong carb too. But a nice-looking engine.

dwc43 Posted Friday at 12:47 PM Posted Friday at 12:47 PM Competition Resin has a cross ram that could be easily modified to look like the Edelbrock intake they used. Cheaper than a kit.
fiatboy Posted Friday at 06:34 PM Author Posted Friday at 06:34 PM Thanks you guys. I will probably buy the kit.
fiatboy Posted Sunday at 05:20 PM Author Posted Sunday at 05:20 PM If I get the whole kit, I'll probably use all the ancillary pieces, like the dry sump oiling system, etc.
