If you want to see the art of the possible when it comes to Pocher 1/8 scale kits, then go here.

They sell a beautiful 1/3 scale Bugatti engine kit for $3600. Gulp ! Think they also do an F40 engine for around $4500, but that's only 1/8 scale.

Recently started building a Pocher 1/8 scale Alfa Romeo 8C and, as predicted by my local expert, the o/d of the crank pins is bigger than the i/d of the con rod big ends. Never thought I'd get down to boring out big ends on an 1/8 scale motor. Thank thingy I've retired and have time to play.
