Yeah, it is the sound of the small v8's that gets me. They just sound like the real thing, as if you shrunk it down. The Toyans sound really good too, and are far cheaper.
Conley has been around forever. The first one that got popular was like 12 years ago I am guessing. It was a small V8 they put in a 30's Ford Coupe RC. It sounded so wicked.
Yeah, I am scared to look at the price of that Conley. The last one I looked at was their scaled down Viper V10 that if I remember correctly was $15,000. Maybe it was $9,000. But anything over $1000 is way out of my budget lol.
Yeah I know what you mean. Just mounting one on a scale engine stand would be cool to have on a shelf. But I would rather have this Conley supercharged V8 😉
I keep telling Dennis to do more build videos. His Toyan equipped RC's are just amazing. I would love to do a build with one. Something like a 32 Ford Coupe would be awesome, and allow you to show off that engine. A Rat Rod would be SWEET!
If you want to use the Toyan in something you absolutely must check out Dennis Dempsey on YouTube. He uses those engines in everything from Tamiya Bruisers to road cars. He is a master at making things work and he will give you tons of ideas. Here is just one of his many, many videos on a Toyan...
