Needed: Dynamic Brake Blisters for EMD Hood Units

[Anonymous]

I need a set of HO scale dynamic brake blisters so I can update some later-model non-Dash2 SD40's to resemble ones that were built in 1970-71. I looked at both Details West and Cannon&Co but neither one has this in their product line.
Thanx in advance...

Ken: will the dynamic brake portion of an Athearn SD-40-2 shell work? If so, I've got a spare you can have. E-mail me with your address and I'll mail it out Monday.

Utah Pacific Brass, Part #78, SD-40 Dynamic brake kit, last price I bought one for was $4.25. Not sure if this will fit the 70 era, or if there was any change in the dynamics at that time.

If you need more than one, you might try sending an e-mail to Athearn. They might sell some.

Thanx all of you who responded. I discovered several hours later that there are other CSX SD40's (inherited from Conrail) that have the original type of DB blisters, just like the ones on the Kato model I am painting. The shell "ain't broke" so I would rather not "fix" it - I'll use the number of the ex-Conrail unit instead.
