stavanzer Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I want to install a Blower on the AMT Packrat/Twister Drag Car. I am having a senior moment, and cannot think of any kit I can rob the Blower parts from , other than the AMT '63 Vette, which has an Okay, but not Great blower. Is there another kit I could Rob These Parts from?. I have several kits in my stash still, but my memory is drawing a blank. The AMT '70 Chevy Fire Chief has a Big Block but no blower. What am I overlooking? Thanks, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 The engine in the Nova is on the small side for a big-block, so you might consider swapping the whole engine. The AMT '69 Chevelle has a big-block with a supercharger option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stavanzer Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 Thanks, Mark for Joggling my memory. The Engine does look small, now that you mention it. That Chevelle, That's what I wanted. Now to see If I sold that kit or not........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AMT '69 Chevelle has a big-block with a supercharger option. The AMT '69 Chevelle has a fuel injection intake. The AMT '68 El Camino Street Machine version has a supercharger with modern fuel injection that fits under the hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stavanzer Posted March 24, 2022 Author Share Posted March 24, 2022 The '69 Chevelle has the Blower I want. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/amt-instructions/automotive-cars--pi/chevrolet/1961-1970/amt-1969-chevelle-s/1969chevroletchevel-8.html#media Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plowboy Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 That's weird. The one I have doesn't have a blower or mention it in the instructions. The one I built didn't have a blower either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 AMT '37 Chevy has a blown BBC, so-so quality. The Revell '68 Vette Roadster has a really nice one. That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 This is the one in the 1/24th scale Revell/Monogram ‘39 chevy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 The early reissues of the '69 Chevelle didn't have the blower, or a stock version for the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stavanzer Posted March 24, 2022 Author Share Posted March 24, 2022 The B/B in the '37 is not bad, except for the lousy Blower Hat, and that can be swapped out. Thanks, I've a about four of those kits. I sold my Revell '68 Vette, sadly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
