Timeline Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Has anyone cast Revell's Chevy Corvette Z01 Engine? Or any other corvette engine?
Casey Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Is this the engine in the ZR-1 kit which was released in 2011? I don't think anyone is casting it, and I doubt anyone will. I realize your location makes things much more expensive, but here in the U.S. we can buy that kit for about $15.00 U.S., so if someone were to cast it and sell it for $8.00 or so, I think most people would buy the kit instead, then use or trade off the extra kit parts. Corvette kits (especially late '80s and early '90s kits by AMT) are $10.00 at most here, and almost every Corvette engine imaginable has been included in a kit, so it's probably not worth a caster's time and money to make only the engine.
Timeline Posted March 22, 2012 Author Posted March 22, 2012 Yeah, location is a problem, but the 2011 Corvette is 19 Euros over here.
dig Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 If you do get a Corvette kit, get the ZR1. It not only has the LS9, but leftover parts to make a decent LS7 out of it
Casey Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 The latest Revell ZR1 kit is on clearance for $18.00, but that's probably still not cost effective even with shipping from the U.S. to Estonia.
