Abrams MBT

Hi,

can anyone tell me where to find close-up pics of the inside engine bay of the Abrams MBT, once the turbine has been removed. I have had the idea of super-detailling a 1/72 Abrams for a long time, but can not get started because I’m missing this data… What I want to model is very much like what was in the October 02 issue of FSM, just at a smaller scale. I tried, thought FSM, to contact the author, but had no luck there. Tried Fort Knox Museum, but the curator told me they did not have that kind of info. I’m getting kind of desperate!

Pictures like this? [:)]
