Pressing on with my 3D printed Studebaker kit here's the engine. Came with separate exhaust manifolds, fan, automatic transmission, alternator, engine sump, air cleaner. Cast on two barrel carburetor, distributor, and oil filter Yes, all research indicates rocker covers were yellow.

No way I could work on something that small. Nice job!

Beautiful work John. Covering this with a hood would be a shame.

...not too many 1/43 engines out there, this is pretty cool. Nicely done John.

Thanks, Not to worry, the hood is removable as is the sliding roof section for this Studebaker Wagoneer model.

Yes, mounting that alternator was tricky. And I still have the battery, radiator, and brake booster to fit in the engine bay.No way I could work on something that small. Nice job!

Amazing detail in our scale. Perhaps there's a market for making 1/43 powerplants?
