Big Scale: 1/6 Hemi Twin Turbo

Post by duffy-duck21 » Mon Nov 09, 2020 7:09 pm

Hello everybody,

After a long absence, it is time to present my latest build, with which I have fulfilled my personal model building dream.

Anyone who knows my conversions will surely know that my passion is American classic cars with modern engines.
For my project, my choice was the 6.1 liter Hemi from the manufacturer Liberty Classics (as a Mopar fan, I was very happy :))

Various companies such as Steve Morris Engines, Nelson Racing Engines etc. served me as a model for the turbo conversion. In real life, my finished engine could be in an engine manufacturer's or tuner's showroom.

In terms of the level of detail, I tried to go as broad and deep as possible, which sometimes succeeded more or less well because I work without technical assistance such as 3D printing or a lathe.

With a bulding time of over 5 months, this was my most time-consuming conversion to date, which was a lot of fun for me (and my eyes) due to the large scale.
