Smash i dont have a clue as to which kit if any had a 401 by AMC i would think (if a kit is out there) that one on the old Javeline's (sp) would have one Thanks, Willie

Hey Willie, I also have a Thunderbolt One Blazer parts kit. Not much left but the chassis, leaf springs and axles are all intact if you need them. I also have the tires and wheels.

Willie, all AMC small-block V8s (they never made a big-block) are the same externally...so a lowly 304 looks just like a 401 on the outside. So our choices for scale AMC V8s are: Revell CJ-7, Revell Honchos, Jo-Han Javelins or Ramblers, I think that's about it. The Rambler V8 really doesn't look much better than the Revell ones, the revamped parts I did for my Scrambler kit fixes the inaccuracies of the Revell V8s. and the modified front cover:

For reference: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMC_V8_engineI've got an unassembled Jo-Han Rambler here if you'd like pics of the engine, I believe that all AMC V8s in their kits were the same?
