If you want a BBC or SBC, look for a 1/12th scale Monogram '57 Chevy model kit and a Monogram '67 Corvette. The '57 has a small block that has stock parts, a few hot rod parts, or a full-on tunnel ram setup with dual quads (VERY nicely detailed, BTW.), the '67 'vette has a 427 that has single quad, Tri-Power, Or Supercharged with a Three-hole Bugcatcher on it. Moroso Valve covers, etc. on both. And a REALLY nice set of headers with the big-block. They're getting pricey on the 'bay, but they're out there and someone should cast them in resin if they got ahold of one... BONUS: If you have an old 1/12th scale car around, they make killer hardbodies for one. I used to have the '67 'Vette on an old RC12 that I used to have, long, long ago. |

Dont know if u guys are familiar with die cast cars but there was a company called "american muscle"and they put out a 1:12 corvette engine set.it was 3 different year corvette engines,327 fuelie,the 350,and my personal fave the ls1!!!!!you can still find the set on the bay but they are getting rare,i think the last set i saw was 40 or so bucks which is a good deal,but there are the $100+ sets cuz they r in perfect condition,in the box blah blah blah lol
