Hello all, new member here. I really enjoy building military trucks and I have a few kits with no engines. I was wondering if any aftermarket suppliers have ever offered a Detroit Diesel or Allison automatic in 1/35? I have the Miniman Factory M915A1 tractor and it comes with a very nice Cummins and older style Allison but I am wanting a newer Detroit Diesel 8V92T and modern Allison to use in my Hobby Fan M911 HET and in the Hobby Boss M1070 HET. I have a Detroit in 1/32 scale from the AMT Snap Tite truck kits but it looks too big and it's not very detailed. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi Ben,
I just read this in another tread here on ArmoramA:
Quoted TextI prepare engine with this build.
That was said by Miloslav from Real Model in this post: http://armorama.com/forums/186535&page=1
So it looks like at least one of your engines is in the works.
Gr,
Marcel
