Show me your Engine
 

Hi guys.
I am building a RC4WD Blazer, and the giant engine bay, just begs to get an complete engine with all the accessories such as, starter, generator, AC, master cylinder, complete wires, radiator and all the other stuff there should be ind there.
I do need some inspirations, so if you have som pics of your engine bays it would be great.
Also links to threds and or links to where to find som of the small scale items such as Washer fluid container, and stuff like that.

I have allready been looking at the scale king
http://scaleking.com

Also Knight customs on hobbytown

I will also post my own pics as soon as i start building the enginebay.
I just need to complete the rest of the car build first.

Thanks.."thumbsup"

RC4WD V8, with engine accessories. I have the radiator, a master brake cylinder, and a battery to add to the engine bay.

I'm still working to finish the build, but another guy said he had to trim the body/firewall to get the distributor to fit properly.

That is a really nice engine. I have looked at it soooo many times but my wallet do not agree.
I would love to see your other accessories epecially the master cylinder. I am trying to build one my self.
I am noy yet sure of the outcome but hopefully some paint and rust will hide some of the imperfections..

Pretty sure you don’t want this in your Blazer but here’s my flat four.

i thought ford distributors are on the front?? :mrgreen:

Re: Show me your Engine
 

Yes, it is. The only reason I have this one, is that it came with the Limited Edition TF2 Blazer.
I cheated with the master cylinder, and picked up one by R3ScaleDesignz on Shapeways...

Hey, hey, hey... :shock:

That's GM Corporate Blue, used in the late '70s! I found they used this color in trucks 1979 for the engines. 8)

Re: Show me your Engine
 

I just ordered a engine bay insert and a motor cover off eBay for my Rc4wd cross country hopefully between the two and using some creative cutting it will work out
