just mind boggling. that is all.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Nice. Where did you get the intake runners and plenum? That might work for my drag pak challenger.
Thanks,

Thanks Lee, Lyle and John.

John:
That intake setup came out of the Jo-Han kit. That's the one thing besides the body that they got right. However....Replicas and Miniatures re-popped this exact engine.

It’s a 429 Boss/ Shotgun engine but the intake and carbs are top notch and are the Jo-Jan molds.

Thanks Stuart!

So....now that the two pieces are now together it takes on a whole new appearance. Just have the throttle linkage and a couple of other details to install here....
