Need tips.
Ok i want to do more engine detail on my next model. So what kinda wire and tubing is best for doing the wiring and plumbing inside the engine bay? I heard u can get some wire from Radio Shack but what is a good gauge to use?
Thnx Cheddar Bob

There was a thread not too long ago that covered all the different sizes possibly required for engine detailing and plumbing, it may be worth your while using the search feature to find that thread.....

Consider the scale. For a 1:24 model, a ~8 mm spark plug wire will be 0.3333333 mm in scale. So find either a .3 mm or a .4 mm wire.

Look for 30 gauge wrapping wire. it's separate from the regular spooled wire, at least in my local radio shacks. I saw red and blue.
