Hi,

Thank you mates. ;)

Few progress!

It is requested by the manual to reduce the intake manifold by one millimeter.
It is modified and reinforced using 0.8 brass so it will not move for milling.


Image

The shafts are prepared as well as the calipers.
You can see the difference with original OOB parts.

Image

Image

The gearbox is painted With aluminium (Dull Alu Alclad), instead of the black recommended.

Image

Image

Image

Same thing for the engine block after being quickly masked with tape and liquid mask.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Time for oils, 1st step.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Even 1/12 engine looks small next to the 1/4… oil filter!

Image

Image

Image

2nd step

Image

… and starting with carbs: Weber, it’s written!

Image

Image

Hope you like it.
More soon!

Good evening,

Thanks a lot ;)

The base of the vermiculated paint of the camshaft covers is done.
The other stages of painting will not be long in coming.

Image

Image

Image

In the meantime, the hardware is in preparation.

Next soon.

Good evening,

Thank you!

The shaft covers are lightly retouched with Sennelier and Humbrol reds before being matt varnished with Aeromaster.

Image

Image

They are installed and fitted with ACT bearing covers.

Image

I turned new caps for the oil filler, but I'm not sure yet to use them...

Image

Image

This is also an opportunity to start installing the bolts.

That's all.
