Here you see the brand new Aeromotive RG30 engines, and in the background the GP-1 racer with these engines installed (Remove it's cowlings and see for yourself how they fit perfectly!).

The engine you see on the left is the RG30A, and on the right you see the RG30C (This one is installed in the GP-1). You can take these engines off and save them as subassemblies, credit would be appreciated when using them on your builds.
