- Billet Aluminium Cylinder Block

That's what I'm after but no one makes it for vg30 any one knows if they do make it

 

Made by a company called Electromotive (or something like that) waaaay back in the day when Steve Millen was racing the Z32.

If you really want an ally block go for a VQ series motor and start from there - that is unless you have tens of thousands of dollars to develop and build an ally block, if that's the case get in touch and I can help ya out

This is a rough idea of what is involved - only if you have tens of thousands though :rofl:

Anyone in Australia do this

 

given the time any money a good machine shop could make a billet alli block

 

My old man knows a guy who did blocks for some of the Nascar guys in the states. Also does US Airforce and NASA stuff. I think he sold the business, but the new owners might be able to help you out. Will try and get some details for you this afternoon. They are in Brisbane somewhere.


Edit, not Nascar, top fuelers.

They do not do a vg, but would be the people to talk to.

 

Thanks for that will call and ask for price

 

Come a long way from the Leyland P76's. I did not know CAD had advanced this far, I guess i never thought of this application until seeing this now.

Are the normal market of factory mass produced alloy engines built this way ?
I have always assumed everything of aluminum engine structure was produced by molds.

We see aluminum heads with the casting remnants of poured molds.
I have not been around a alloy bare block yet to see castings.

 

There is really not much to this 427 in the completed scene. All that power from what looks/seems a thin/week construction.
The bore housings are so thin without the sleeves.

Anyway, here is a quick find of a power of a different kind, that , i can only describe it as.....GAAAAAWWWWW!
It's.....it's....horrible http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=JWxcJDONE_U

 

EP racing is developing these at the moment for the vg30dett !

 

How much do you know ?

 

Hit Mitch up, if you have facebook here he is:

I was interested and I went to have a look but then I saw

"Sadly...with my oil squirter CAD image shown...I feel that AMS will begin to try and copy :-( "

After I wet my pants laughing at him thinking anyone would want to copy that I gave up looking.

BTW anyone who wants the exact same result as this part he is developing you can simply drill an extra hole in the tips of the current squirters OR remember just how much oil is flying around inside an engine and figure out you are just wasting oil pressure.
