george 53 Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 OOO shucky, when will those bad lookin turbo's be ready? I can use a coupla sets of them bad boys!!!
Deckerz Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 nice work man, love the seats and turbos, they look perfect size for the viper engine.
diymirage Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 OOO shucky, when will those bad lookin turbo's be ready? I can use a coupla sets of them bad boys!!! i got mine in the mail yesterday and they are awesome even though i got them at a discounted price because they were B quality casts they still look great i should probably order a set of those drag radials he is casting to put on the rear of the car that will get these snails i cant wait to get my hands on a full catalouge of his castings and go to town
envious8420 Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 I need a lg. turbo now and the drag radials when they come out. please pm with prices and mailing address
shucky Posted June 20, 2010 Author Posted June 20, 2010 Thanks for the kind words guys. Details should be posted this week on ordering and availability. The turbo's will be slightly delayed because I'm still working on perfecting the molds. Drag radials I'm guessing should be ready in a couple weeks. Thanks again fella's!
diymirage Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 do you think you could cast some nice classic rims to go with those drag radials ? i am so sick of centerlines, its not even funny anymore i would love to see a set of deepdish keystone classic or cragar SSs or dare i say it...spyder rims like i said before you should consider selling the rims and tires as a set
diymirage Posted June 26, 2010 Posted June 26, 2010 for those of you wondering about the turbos...here are a few quick mock up pictures of the small ones bolted up to the doomday machine...a DOHC 426 HEMI with a supercharger (and now the twin turbos offcourse) it will also have a 75 shot of nitrous for that little extra oomph at any rate, this is how the turbos look with no effort what so ever, i only glued on the manis and made the charge tubes, then painted everything i didnt clean up the castings or fill in any sinkholes, this is how the units look straight from the mold (keep in mind these are B quality pre-run units and im sure the final product will be even better) one more thing, i did trim the impeller shaft down to save room so the two snails sit a little closer then straight out of the box. and one shot with the charge pipes removed to show more detail
shucky Posted June 26, 2010 Author Posted June 26, 2010 Sweet. That things going to be a monster! Just some info for anyone curious, the resin is paintable straight from the mold. It does NOT require any soaking, washing, cleaning, etc. Just a little benny I thought I'd throw out there.
george 53 Posted June 26, 2010 Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) Shucky, jus let us know where an when we can get some an you got at least 6 of them bad boys gone!!! Edited June 26, 2010 by george 53
bigmikevee Posted June 26, 2010 Posted June 26, 2010 Shucky, I am building a Revell Crusader, will the large blowers possibly be in scale for this type of build? Thanks. Mike
shucky Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 Mike I've not actually seen any of the Revell 1/12 motorcycles up close so I can't really say size wise how they would look on one. I could measure the x-large turbo for you and post the dimensions?? Let me know.
bigmikevee Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Hey Shucky, Thanks fo the reply, if you get a chance and can measure the sizes (both large and small) that would be great.... hopefully would work on this and one other 1/12 bike project just to do something I am imagining. At your convenience sir. Thanks. Mike
shucky Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 Mike no prob! I took some quick pics, thought that would be easiest. X-Large: Large:
Romell R Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 shucky Please send me a Pm with your prices for your turbo and ordering info. I'd like to get a few set from ya. thx in advance Romell
bigmikevee Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Hey Shucky, Clever way to send the measurements, I have no doubt what they are! Hey, when you send PM to Romell, send me one please, include prices for both sizes, since 1/12 scale, just gonna get both and see which one passes the eyeball test, best way I know. Hey, there's always a place for cool parts. Thanks. Mike
toplessfury Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 those are so awesome looking parts!! any updates on prices etc.....?
george 53 Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Guys, I got mine last week, and they're PERFECT!!! NO flaws whatsoever! These things look GREAT! I got both the Street size, an the Pro Stock size too. BOTH sets were OUTSTANDING!!! VERY good product for the price, DEFINATELY worth it!!!!
Len Geisler Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 Fella's....If you are even considering ordering these turbos, DO IT.... They are AWESOME, in no uncertain terms, nice clean white resin, ready to build some boost... Mike, thanks for doing EXACTLY what you said, it is quite nice to have another caster who does just what he says he will.. Oh yea, and get craking on those drag radials, my Monte can use some.....
shucky Posted July 26, 2010 Author Posted July 26, 2010 Thanks fellas glad you like 'em! I have a prototype drag radial in rubber now. Will do a test pour in a couple days. My fotki will be updated soon with more parts and price list. My computer took a dump last week so that set me back a bit lol ...
diymirage Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 if you need a test car for those drag radials they would be a perfect match for my quadcammihemi engine ill be sure to write a great review in return
TurboKitty Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 I am definitely interested in buying a pair of the Large turbos (smaller size), please PM me with details. I'm trying to make my own right now and stumbled onto these!
shucky Posted July 29, 2010 Author Posted July 29, 2010 IM sent Michelle. Jim, thanks bro for posting those really nice pictures! Much appreciated.
