Chuck Most Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) I got sick of having to make one whenever I built a hopped-up Hudson Hornet engine, so I sent one off to Kris Morgan, and now I (and you) don't need to do that. Just plunk down three bucks, wait for the USPS folks to bring it to you (as a bonus Kris' order turnaround time is pretty quick), and you're done. This isn't based on any particular aftermarket Hudson head, it's just a finned aluminum style. The bottom is flat- due to ease moldmaking, the two locator pins present on the bottom of the Moebius head had to be removed. Note that the 3.00 price is for one, not a pair like in the picture. http://www.madmodeling.com/store/ Edited January 18, 2015 by Chuck Most
Kris Morgan Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 As you can see, Chucks master building skills speak for themselves. These are not up on the site just yet. In the meantime, feel free to PM me if ya need one.
Kustom Steve Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 do you pressure or vacuum cast these parts?
Kris Morgan Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Pressure is used when pouring the resin. Vac when the rubber for the mold itself.
Kustom Steve Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks for the info Kris. A lot of so called casters just open pour everything and show pictures of the one time they get lucky with a good cast. Then they never give a straight answer as to how they cast the product and when you order it is Swiss cheese, lol.
Longbox55 Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Chuck and Kris, any chance you guys might get together and do more hop up parts for the Hudson kits?
jbwelda Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 yeah a little hop up kit of some various stuff including this head would be kool! jb

I've got a couple dozen of his parts in the stash, and there's not a baddie in the bunch. I do have some other Hudson-specific engine stuff in mind, it's just a matter of getting them made.
Kris Morgan Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 funny..kris smells like cheese...... Yeah? At least I can exit a truck. :-)
