Good detail for belt and valve covers.

^aint the intake suppose to be red as well?



^it looks like to me that the cylinder head is coming off or not wanting to stay on!
but not bad at all
question= was the prototype engine black in the svt ram?

The heads are on nice and securely. It probably was a slightly warped part. And no, this engine came with the kit. And according to a site I use for reference shots, this is how the engine looks. You gotta remember, this is the new Viper Coupe, not the old one. Bonnet hinges at the back.

lovely paintjob!, good colours and great masking job too!

Can i give you some dummy advice (as always from me ). A gentle blackwash will do the engine justice, on the metallic parts. Just two cents to make it really stand out!

Oli - Now Go!

Well, I'm gonna take this kit up again because I'm back from my 4th of July break, and still nobody has completed this kit. Hopefully there will be some progress soon!

Oli: Thank you for the advice. I'm going for a very showroom stock look here, so the shinier the better. In addition, I'm always hesitant about ruining my kit while learning a new technique. I'm gonna try a brownish wash on the tan leather seats I'll be doing for my MX-5 (also will be updated soon)

Well, the engine has been installed onto the chassis.
