Whiskymack Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Does anyone know the BBC dimension for the Detroit Dozen RS771? It's longer than the standard RS700 and you can see there's an infill between the cowl and hood. I know these are rare beasts but I was hoping that maybe someone has access to one and could measure that extra cowl infill or that there are some figures available somewhere. Another model project.

Vladislav Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 There was discussion about this truck on here about a year or two back. As I remember the cowl was modified to make the total length of engine compartment larger to accomodate V12.

Whiskymack Posted June 14, 2020 Author Share Posted June 14, 2020 All the 771's have this modification so it must have been factory. I guess that they were so few in number that it was not economical to produce a longer hood so they came up with the cowl extension instead. You know me, I like figures so I was hoping to find out exactly how many inches were added! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
