***January 5, 2026 – HAPPY NEW YEAR! I returned home this evening to find 30 orders placed since I left 2 weeks ago! YIKES!!! This might be a record, and I am very grateful! HOWEVER, now that I’m back I will need to prepare and fulfill all of them. Some items I can fulfill right away, as I do have some inventory, and some items will need to be poured and cured. I will be spending EVERY evening after I get home from work either in my shop or stuffing boxes and envelopes to get caught up as quickly as possible. Your patience while I work to fulfill everything, as always, is greatly appreciated! ~Cass

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Accurate impulse engines for the 1:537 AMT® U.S.S. Reliant model kit. This new impulse engine replaces the inaccurate impulse engines that come with the original kit, is designed for lighting and includes:

  • 3D printed impulse engine housing
  • 3D printed impulse engine "vents" (2)
  • Clear cast resin impulse engine "lenses" (2)
  • Clear cast resin light refractor

Please note that the Paragrafix photo-etch impulse engine vents WILL work with these parts if you wish to use the photo-etch instead of the 3D printed vents.

Upgrade parts are placed into the model by cutting and converting the original plastic kit.  Certain areas of the kit must be cut away to install the new impulse engine.

    Most parts are MADE TO ORDER.  Please allow at least 5-6 days to process prior to shipping.

    Thanks to Will Fowler for the development of these parts!
