Re: Happy with my brand new 1:12

More costly than a real LS2! But how cool!!!

I might have to fire up the old backyard foundry and borrow some lathe time and see if I can knock one up from scratch (wishful thinking with my current project-load). Some of the other scale V8 builders will sell you the hard to make parts (carbs, cams, ignitions and even 1/4 sparkplugs!) or complete kits. It would be great fun to build.

As would: TURBOCHARGER GAS TURBINE - Page 1

and video: YouTube - Beer+old turbo=home made jet engine

Sorry for the thread drift!!!
