would this big cam ntc 475 cummins be appropriate in the 377 or 379

Nice job on the engine and would be well suited

If you got some "spare" cabs laying around, there is a neat youtube out by a young kid that uses thread as a saw to cut out doors on plastic kits. I am yet to try it but is sure seems to work well and plan too try it on my next venture. I'm having trouble getting links to attach but if dig around and you can find it.

I really doubt there is any problem with the purple power regardless of temp unless down to like zero degrees F.. I would suspect the bucket or maybe some residue in it. Try a cheap foil pan.

Good luck.

That motor is 1/25, the italeri trucks are 1/24. Im sending you a 60 series detroit for it with the box of parts.

As to the purple power, you have to keep it covered tightly or it will jell up. I have two car bodies in the purple pond right now that has been in there for over a month, now. I forgot all about it until a couple of days ago. Bodies are completely stripped and the purple power is still a liquid.

The purple power is melted away now...i had to use hot water. to melt it after it froze
