Hey Jeff 

  The 1/24 Renault 360 from Italeri showed up today. I got started on the E9 engine, it's a little bigger than the engine from the AMT DM800, but I believe it will fit, although pretty tight. I didn't get any pictures today but I will tomorrow.

Ok, here you go Jeff. I have the E9 together. I had to do some modifications to it to make it more like a actual E9, not a European version.

20210409_173707.jpgI had to move the starter from this side to the other side also I added the chrome part to make the oil cooler. I put the rear piece from the Cummins NTC-400 with the trans cooler on the E9 transmission.

20210409_173019.jpgthis view shows the piece I removed from the Maxidyne engine from the DM800 and added to the bell housing for the starter.  I also had to modify  the part that goes on this side to move it forward to clear the starter.

20210409_173745.jpgcloser view of the changes made to this side. I had to remove the oil pan from the kit supplied E9 for the Renault 360 because it has a front sump and I need a rear sump, so I kit bashed one together from an old oil pan from the parts bin and the left over part of the oil pan from the kit to make the one that is on it.

I also added fuel injector tubes to the fuel injector pump. I also added a piece to the intake manifold cross pipe for the inter cooler pipes. I still have to add the fuel lines and the rest of the plumbing.

20210409_173525.jpgthis view shows the fan and the alternator form the DM800. I made a fan belt for this because the kits alternator was on the other side. I still need to add a fuel filter by the alternator.

20210409_172313.jpgview from the other side showing the inter cooler pipes. I have to modify them because they sit to tall and the hood won't close.:wallbash:

20210409_172223.jpgthis view shows everything together. I painted the wheel centers a dark orange and Molotow chrome on the rims and details. Well that's it for now be back with more updates soon.
