User blog:1steditionman/Information for Customizers in the Hot Wheels Wiki

Are you a Hot Wheels customizer in search for that perfect engine? You can hit the pegs again and again hoping to find it (nothing wrong with that!), or you can click on the Cars With Exposed Engines category in the Wiki and find that ideal engine for your current and next project. Whether it's plastic or metal, blown, piped, scooped, real or fantasy, on-scale or oversized ('tooned), you will very likely find a good project engine. I am currently customizing a Ford 1960's Pickup (E-Series) and after checking available options, I settled for the engine in the Altered Ego, which has the right size for what I want to do and fits OK with minimal modifications to the chassis. The only thing; it is chromed, which, for a 1:64 scale car, it loses realism, so the chrome finish will be removed.

Caveats for HW Wiki collaborators when categorizing: Please ensure the engines are complete (not just a blower and scoop). 1steditionman (talk) 17:52, September 15, 2018 (UTC)
