    I don't know how you come up with all these ideas, Robin Fink is a great idea and well done. The engines are coming along well. Good tip on adjusting the box tops, I hope I can still remember it when I get back to my workbench.

    Your concept for the computer controlled double blowers on the Hemi has a LOT of basis in reality. Back in the late '90s I got together with a couple other partners to put on a race track event at Willow Springs Raceway. It was for cars like hotrodded Honda Civics and such. I was a self employed race car and movie set fabricator. My business was called PREPCo. 1 partner owned a local shop building custom cars and go fast Honda Civics and such, several of which had been on magazine covers. The 3rd partner was the idea guy who was then working on unmanned air and ground vehicles for the military we now call "drones". These days he's a project manager for NASA living in Birmingham, AL.
    So when we got together to go to the track to set up the event we took a Honda Civic (with owner's permission and even suggestion) to test drive it and put some miles on it. It had a new computer controlled electric powered Turbo on it. Instead of being connected to the exhaust, it had an electric motor driving the intake side of the turbo. That thing hauled A! WOW! Mild mannered Honda Civic coupe...until you flipped the switch on the dash and turned the knob to crank it up! Then Hang On! Like in the TV show when Batman flipped the afterburner switch on the Batmobile and ZOOM!
    The Red Ram early Mopar Hemi was a small block 241 cu in. engine. If you see one in person, they really ARE little. In the late 60s and early 70s for the JDM Toyota top of the line Crown Luxury car had an optional 3.0l Hemi V8 that looks just like a Mopar Hemi. But again, little like a Red Ram. I saw one of the Toyota Hemi engines in a '29 Ford Roadster in a car show in Burbank once. Since it was parked next to a Deuce Roadster with a 392 Hemi, it looked odd. But sounded just as nasty.
    There was a real Unibody F100 that was drag raced in the early 60s. Google it.
    Cool episode here Glen!

    LOL Robin Fink
    I'm digging the mutant double 6, that's as cool as the backside of the pillow.
    The original Model A roadster / Ala Kart kit had the right sized engine. The Mod Rod kit has the Dodge Red Ram engine and some of the old Ala Kart parts
    The Texaco Gassers are a good looking group. Lol that would be a cool name for a band though "The Texaco Gassers"

    It's a baby hemi. The 332 and 354 hemis were used in the early 50's. They fell out of favor with an odd cast block that had what looked like the top of the bell housing. When the 392's came out, you could have a more conventional setup.

    "Studebaker"..... now what, is somepin sposed to happen? It wasn't just the smell, for me it was also the feel of polystyrene, I just wanted to eat it especially the candy colored kits! Maybe that's why I spent the past ten years buying old vintage kits.
