F4R engine drawn in CAD?

[Meek_racing]

Anyone done any 3D parts for this engine? I think I've seen some stuff done from one of the supercharger tuners on here... Just curious what people have done and to what detail. If anyone has done and 3D parts with accurate detail, please PM me.

As of next week I will be cleaning up parts from our engine ready for the re-build. In doing so I'll draw them up onto SolidWorks just because I'm sad and have no life . It will only be external detail and no specific tollerence or sufaces finish on the parts.

you really need to get out more

I'm only aloud certain time off now that the missus has locked me into a mortgage (no comments from Nick if he reads this), and will be in work.

and im sad.

LOL-priceless

Mike - no need to worry, I'm saying nothing

On a serious note. How long would it take to draw this in CAD? Ages me thinks. I remember drawing stuff up in 2D from customer samples took forever when you dont have any dimensions to work to.

I have a better idea anyway! Why don't you come over to mine, model a Clio door, then design and water/laser cut some door cards for the car?

Lol. Ring Renault and ask for their pics what's happened to your lump boys?

it went in the bin a few days ago!

Drawing modified Renault F7R took more than 200 hours to me. Moreover the calculation, simulation and documentation took 150 hours.

Fred will re-build the top end with one of his bottom ends. Just waiting on prices for high comp pistons and cams, then will see what budget we need to raise for the work to be done.

Only the bottom half you git.

Nick, In regards to drawing the parts... No time at all really. I'm not detailing all the internals and there wont be any drawings done. Best bet for the door will be to trace around it with a large sheet of paper and work from that. I can only laser cut steel/Ali, I might as well do that when Percy's over here

You know it makes sense :approve:
