Hullo, mastercam and running Mach 3 on a hobby mill cheers Peter
Have you tried Fusion360
Are you going to start a thread of your build on here?
Its interesting to see how other people do things, there is always something to learn, even just with pictures
No have not tried it i done most of my engine so far manually, i have a friend who is a programmer for a company here that he works for and he has been helping me with CNC G codes and has made a program for the cam and also the rockers which i am making now, was hoping you could give me the codes or files that you made your dizzy cap also the water pump ect have a code for the rocker covers, I will put up some pics of the build on here as i have tried to do it to share but cannot work out how to do it. will put them up soon cheers Peter

Coming along nice. Was the balancer changed to aluminum so it could be colored?
mate you are pumping it out , doing a great job , please private message me
Did you get this on your plan? I did not get this on my plans, Peter
It’s off the supercharger plan
Some more work done years ago but still doing it all manual work,
Made the insulators and brass tops for the plugs today
insulators are made from corian, I cut a strip of a slab of corian I have and turned it round in the lathe
the insulator’s were turned in the small cnc lathe
the worst part was drilling a 1mm hole in them, this was done manually in my other lathe while the cnc was running
it took 32 minutes to make one insulator as the cnc could only take very small cuts because of the flex in the corian
