Is there anybody out there that still has any of the model engine casting kits like the Challenger, or the Black Widow?

If you have one and wanting to sell it please get ahold of me at by emailling [email protected]

Thanking everybody in advance for thier time & efforts.

Ok
I purchased a set of castings from Cole’s, I think they may have been the last set before the closed up
The castings for the stand we’re missing and they stoped replying to email and never sent the castings that we’re missing
I still have all the rest, I am keeping it until I have more experience, then I will start on it
It’s a nice looking engine and from videos I’ve seen of it running sounds great too

If you need a set I can,cast a set from the casting I have also I cast parts mostly alum brass red brass and silver gold. I cant find it but I casted some elemer wall carbs for me one 24k gold the silver one to. I lost them some where. But I can cast them

I might be casting soon note on my casting i don't do cores so no asking for manifolds no tubes.


Let me say that engine has alot of problems due to the intake it's a box I know I spoke to lancer when,I was a kid and his son

Advice make one that flows better I worked on one I opened up the box and inside the manifold

Lol think of the shape of a hersy kiss I made a shape like that it fixed all flow and fuel mix per cylinder was finally since 1968 ran great sad to say that engine gone lost. Ran great a top 10 k,rpm a low of 950

Stay in touch so i don't forget and I advice on,yours soak the block in warm,water check the block most of them from there big problems.
 
If they are cast from castings as he says then watch the sizes!
 
I am more curious what the asking price is. I know what I paid for the Black Widow castings which indeed are top notch but without all the details and rough drawings it’s a project I don’t really have time right now to fix. Some day I will once retired.

I know the shirink. Been trying to figure thus out.

And the casting would be just the stands. But I agree. Had a brass head it was by the book 5/32 just in one way. This. I,don't get
