Custom 1/14 Scale Vintage Detroit Diesel V8 Engine Dressing & Radiator Kit

Bring true American muscle to your 1/14 scale RC rig! Modeled after the classic 2-stroke Detroit Diesel V8 (8V-71 / "Screaming Jimmy"), this detailed multi-piece 3D-printed kit is designed to dress up your engine bay and hide the electric motor on Tamiya and custom 1/14 RC semi trucks (Grand Hauler, King Hauler, Globe Liner, Knight Hauler, Peterbilt/Kenworth builds).

The engine block is cast with a hollowed rear sleeve designed to fit over standard 540-size RC electric drive motors or chassis centerlines, turning an empty or functional chassis into a scale showstopper. 

What’s Included in the Kit:

Detroit Diesel V8 Engine Block: Highly detailed block featuring dual-bank valve covers, top-mounted blower/intake assembly, crossover plumbing, front pulleys, and alternator/accessories. 

Radiator & Fan Shroud: Upright square radiator with circular recessed fan shroud. 

Bullet Auxiliary Cooler / Intercooler: External finned heat exchanger unit. 

Cooling Fan: Scale 6-blade radiator fan. 

Scale Piping & Conduit Rods: Long scale runner rods and black joining sleeves/connectors to customize your coolant and intake routing. 

Specifications & Details:

Scale: 1/14 Scale (Direct match for Tamiya 1/14 tractor trucks and aftermarket metal chassis rails).

Color / Finish: Printed in iconic Detroit Alpine Green/teal with black and white accent components. Unpainted details can be left as-is or touched up with model paints (acrylics/enamels) and weathering washes. 

Assembly: Multi-piece kit; simple assembly using hobby CA (super) glue or epoxy.
