Better get my new POS started on the board. I got 3 NEW kits for xmas. They're still virgin. I so like to model this way. Everything here is salvage, parts box bashed and/or scratched. First, I discovered this frame. Origin, make unknown. Pile of collected parts. Body,engine, and wheels showed up just in time from Jody (Smartresins) for this baby. Large tank is made up from right and left side tanks off of an old RC Jeep. parts gathered to Geezerize the engine. Heads way too small for these valve covers (home cast from 1 orphan resin Hemi cover... how'd I ever get just one??) Mocking up a dual blower manifold. Sent Igor out to the yard to pull pullys.

Going a little slow on this build it seems. Power company CEOs and the stockholders all want their million dollar bonuses and dividends, so I'm reluctant to run the heater out in my studio very much. This is central Florida....no business being 32° every morning !! Mainly been working on the induction for the Geezer8. Here is the manifold roughed out. Parts laid out. Manifold and heads on the engine

Have the belt on and everything looks fairly good. I can get the carbs set up next, and then move on to the chassis. I have a small piece made for the joining of the plenums, but it's pretty flimsy and will have to be messed with about the last thing.

Your motor will be amazing! This is created in your brain or you are replicated a real one? Good continuation on this project.

Well, Flip, I 'spect there must be some variation of this setup out there somewhere. If there is, I haven't seen it. I wanted dual blowers, but not up on top of the block. so this is entirely IMAGINEERED. I pretty much have the powerplant done now that I have the carbs on,
