Thanks for the information andy. How did you copy the Chevy crank and timing, did you use any prints and if so how did you got them: Drei

I wanted to know how did you time the engine, for example which the firing order and thus how do you number the cwlinders. I mean do you start counting on the crank shaft or on the cylider bancks and if so after each other or crossing them? Then as for the cam timing, once you have determind...

Great looking engine well done :). Regarding the crack, at which rpm did you machien it and as for the tool you used hss right? Drei

hi, does anyone know from where i could buy materials like the cold rolled steel used for the cranckshaft etc. im looking for a site which could ship to Malta. Thanks Drei

Hi, How did you calculated the displacment of the blower, the diameter of the two rotors etc Drei

The bore will have a diameter of 25 and also the stroke is 25 with a compression ratio of 10:1. Drei

Hi, is a 6 mm diameter to small for a gouging pin situated in a 1\4 v8 engine. the engine would rev for about 10000 because it will be supercharged. Thanks Drei

Which one is better for machining engine valves? Drei

I just cut the cams with the cam cal program values, then polish them on the lathe with some fine emrycloth. Tough i would like to have some sort of machien or cam grinder to be able to achieve a more accurate cam. Andrei

Hi, Can you tell me from where I can find any drawings of a 1/4 v8 engine machiend from bar stock? Thanks Anderi

Hi, How do you guys attach your lathe chuck to the rotary table. If you have the work piece turning on the lathe then you have to mount it on the rotary table without removing it from the chuck. And what are like the flanges or accesories that attach the chuck onto the ratary table. Thanks Drei

If i was giong to do the job, first i would roughly cut small steps leaving ecess material. Then machien and form a 3in diameter ball nose tool and cut some cutting angles with the slitting saw etc. Then gently as posssible with low rpm i would drill and form the hole. I think that the most...

I have used the loctite for my Lynx engine and it didnt hold, maybe because i used the green loctite. I have heard that to acheive permanent bonds the blue one is better maybe i should have tried it. About the pinning, i did it as well and the cam shaft fails and snapped from the pin hole. At...

What is the main difference in designing the v twin in a 90 or 45 deg angle? Does it effect the RPM or torque?... Drei
