Well, at least a little practice for you. Do you have needle files, a pin vise, and some micro drill bits? Those little goodies are invaluable for tasks of this sort!

Yup, except for pin vise. Haven’t found one yet. I have one of those 3rd hand clip stand with alligator clips.

One of those clip stands is something that would be a good idea for me to acquire.

Thanks for that tip Tom.

Found what I'm looking for....
http://www.b-n-lresins.com/shoppingopen ... ower-Scoop
Problem here I can't choose my payment method through BNL Checkout page. So, I sent an email to BNL staff. In the meantime, I've been looking all over finding another site that carries BNL Resin products featuring engine parts. No luck. I've looked in:
Sprue Brothers
Scalehobbyist
MegaHobby
Squadron (useless there)
Hobbylinc
Free Time Hobbies
HobbyModels
HobbyWorld USA
I've looked in Joe's list as well and came up with nothing. Some of the links don't work or no longer active.

BNL Resins is also on Facebook, Tom. Probably faster to send a message to them that way, methinks.

Re: BlackSheep's Racers, Dragsters, & Funny Cars Group Build
I have finally decided on the color scheme for this gasser kit. Magenta (or similar to it) and silver.
Oh yeah, I’m forgoing the decals from the kit and making my own custom decals. Looking at various images of real ‘37 Chevy gassers and much thought into what gasser name I want to give, I’ve decided to call it...... well, you’re gonna have to wait.
I still have to order the replacement blower though.

Found a replacement blower for my '37 Chevy Gasser... Ordered it from Competition Resins for a couple dollars more than BNL but I needed it. Ordered it on Saturday, Nov. 23rd; showed up in my mailbox today. Quick service!!
