another update
rpm arms are on
test fit the motor and stinger pipe i had (motor is bad so i need to rebuild or replace it hopefully the motor on the ds i just bought is good)
and test fit a body

looks like everything will work well (as long as i can find a route for the fuel line for the stinger)

Looks good! I picked up some of the gold paint, I figure if it doesn't turn out like I like it I can always huff it :shock: :mrgreen:

I can't help it, I have to comment on the front body mount. "Turkeys done!"
