really appreciate the kind words fella's, if I can just make another header and turbo to match these,, thats gonna be a little tough and very time consuming for me!

you can stop and look any time Ray, I don't charge much to look, lol thanks man!

[Alan]

Did you machine the turbo impellers ?

[vintagedragfan]

no Alan, the turbos are all separate pieces, no machining at all on them

[ll Brandon ll]

Wow... almost makes me want to pack my kits up, sell my tools, and never touch a model again, lol. Beautiful work, bro. Your skill is on a level that I cant even trully get to I think.

[vintagedragfan]

So, when you do this, are you machining it free hand or using like a computerized CnC machine?

[John Teresi]

Bill.......so ,so NICE!!!!!!!

[Alyn]

Bill...

you are breaking new ground here.

This motor is beyond awesome

[sjordan2]

Just amazing. Now all you need is a metal chassis/suspension.

[vintagedragfan]

Mind-boggling ! Still having trouble wrapping my brain around this being in 1/24 scale....

Cheers Dan
