Tegheim - Home made 4 rotor Wolvo 142

Tegheim · 11-23-2013, 04:17 PM

I have been thinking about the intake. I would want to have tapered runners, but because "someone" decided to lower the entire body over the frame, there isn't much space above the engine.
This means that I have to make a turn on 156.5grd pretty tight around the engine and land on the block. The options are to cast runners in plastic, carbon fiber or aluminum perhaps?

Today I continued to mod my intermediate irons for more bearings.
First I layed a the intermediate and clamped it. Then either front or rear iron onto to indicate the centrum.

Machined two new very tight dowels. As tight as possible.
Even then you can move the plate 0.015mm in both directions. I alinged in the middle of the play.
