WIP F40 engine kit (scale 1/4)

COMPLETE!!

- all wiring looms made and installed.
- added the final bits (clutch, fuel cross feed, intake bridge,...)

Installing the intake units was quite a challenge, as it was difficult to reach all the mounting points and add the washers and nuts. Initially with loud screaming and frustration but then with patience and some breaks it worked. :-)

I am not installing the 2 timing belt covers to keep the details behind visible.

WIP F40 engine kit (scale 1/4)

Building step 8 (climate compressor)
Building step 10 (intake unit / coil packs)
Building step 11 (engine stand)

(Building step 9 (clutch / fly-wheel assembly) to follow later)

All parts assembled according instruction manual. Just replaced 1-2 items for personal reasons.
Weathering still has to be done on most parts.

I could not resist and dry fitted most parts for some quick pictures. Sorry for 1-2 pics out of focus.
Also full wiring harness, some hoses and lines still missing to be done in the next updates

Building step 7 (alternator)

I added copper wire (0,25mm) to coil arms of printed part R83 to simulate the coil. This wire is not included in the kit but could easily be added.

F40 engine kit.

Hello everyone. I am overwhelmed by the amount of requests about this engine kit already. I already have WAY!!!! more requests than i have engine kits. I am not able to increase the number of kits in the near future. So i cant offer a kit to all that are interested. Please stand by one / two weeks until the kits are ready. I will contact everyone that i can offer a kit then. So please stand by. Even if you did not hear from me now it does not mean you are not able to get a kit. I will contact everyone once the kits are ready.

I will give everyone then the required information about pricing and shipping options.

I am very sorry already, that i cant offer everyone a kit that is interested. But that would be above my possibilities.

Again, please be patient

Best regards,
Michael
