55fireflite Posted April 22, 2024 Posted April 22, 2024 Greetings, I have a long-running project to build a K&K Insurance Dodge Charger Daytona based on an original 1970's vintage MPC NASCAR Daytona body, and parts from a variety of kits. The bodywork is done. The MPC kit had a grill over one headlight opening, and I want the version with both stock headlight doors, so I adapted the nose cone from the much-maligned AMT street Daytona kit (based on the General Lee kit). The sides needed a LOT of reshaping, but now it looks great. I found a set of K&K Daytona decals on ebay (now out of production). My question involves the engine. I plan on using a 426 Hemi from an AMT kit, but I need the distinctive NASCAR Hemi bathtub intake manifold. I there a source for one of these in the aftermarket suitable for an AMT Hemi? Thanks, Tom
bluestringer Posted April 22, 2024 Posted April 22, 2024 The Salvinos generic Dodge kit has the correct engine. I built the 71 Dodge number 11 using that kit. I got the kit and decals from Mike's Decals. 1 1
