Scale motors?

[TURTLE]

Specifically a 4 cylinder diesel in 10 or 12th scale?
Anybody know of any out there?

I am not sure of exact scale and it is probably expensive since it really works but here is one. check the 5th picture down on it. Looks to be 3 times the size of a quarter.

:shockamn!
Thats rad, but Im kinda thinkin something I can hollow out and put a planetary transmission in with a 540 can motor.
How about any flat fours out there? Hell I might even be down for a straight 6 if the size is right.
Thanks
Ty

cHECK EBAY,I found a 1/12 scale CAT engine for a an 8x8 build,so if you search,you might find what you need http://cgi.ebay.ca/Caterpillar-C15-...4f4925&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116#ht_3095wt_1026

look up the conley or conely v8, its a mini v8 for rc cars

That's 1/4 scale and costs around $6,000.

Maybe I should specify, non working static model. And cheap to boot!

from the 14.95 thread in general scale, these are free (including shipping) when you register.

Wouldn't be hard at all to whip up a 4 cylinder block with some styrene to wrap around a motor.

 

[monkeyracer]

The free motors are only 1/18th scale though, and a lot of the liberty classics or revell/monogram motors are 1/8 or 1/6 scale, it may actually be hard to find a 1/10 scale. Especially a 4-banger diesel...

I think your best bet is styrene...

Well I guess I will stop being lazy about it then. Thanks for helpin guys."thumbsup"

Hey Ty I missed this thread sorry for the late reply to it but an easiy way to make a motor like you want is to carve it out of blue or pink construction foam,,fiberglass it the cut it in half and remove the foam with some nitro fuel

Heres a pic of the 1/8th scale 22re i carved

 

[TURTLE]

Nice I will have to try that.
Unfortunately, I am going to have zero room to do it on my TJ build, I thought I might but it is just not in the cards for this one.
Thanks though Thomas."thumbsup"

I heard a rumor this weekend there maybe a cummins 6BT coming out in 1/10 scale.. he is just finishing up on a Hemi, a chevy, and a Ford engine.

 

[70duncan]

I would like to know more about the Cummins. I am building a scaler that realy needs one, if I can figgure out how to get it in there.

I'd really like to get a fake plastic V-8 to put in my 1/10th trail rig..

Also a V-8 that simply snaps onto the top of a 540/550 electric motor... kinda like the snap on heat sinks, but with the look of a real motor...
