Jurva that's exactly what I used!
3M makes a red color tape but I don't have that so I painted some Tamiya masking tape with red. I'm thinking about making the strips thinner...on the 1:1 the red is actually 2 plates, not painted stripes. |

That aircleaner looks great. I really like how you did the red stripes around it. Your builds are always impressively detailed, great work!

I started working on the triple carb throttle linkage and detailing. This is my attempt at making small enough return springs.
  Each carb will have a linkage on the left side...it's a pain! I'm using parts from a photoetched carb-linkage set.   |

I had to compromise a little for the linkages... so it's kind of simplified but I think it worked out okay and looks similar to the 1:1's!
http://community.webshots.com/photo/...75156278xIgojz     1/3 of the way and I'll finish this sucker off! |

Looks good to me! I can already hear the air sucking past the butterflies. Amazing work.

Thanks for the feedback!
The carbs/air filter are now in place. I'm not sure about using the Revell(1/25) chrome valve cover or the Fujimi(1/24) matching silver valve cover...   Distributor is on and needs to be wired:   Next up is the fuel line to carbs and back...then onto the accelerator linkage  |
