Rods finally came.

I'll show you mine if you show me yours. This you learn in the book of the west I mentioned. Even Steven.
I never said I owned one, I said I used one years ago. I DO NOT own the lifter tru fixture. I dont do lifter bores in house, they are sent out. I DO know the limitations of the system, obviously your oblivious to the short comings. I will ask you once more, how do YOU determine the bores are at blueprint spec when your done?

He can’t tell you anything. He’s not a machinist. He plays one on here.

I’ve used that fixture many times and you are correct. Even when you spend forever dialing the fixture in you still can’t move the bores very much if at all.

We used it mostly to make .842 bores .875 for the Chevy guys and it’s fine for that. It’s actually not bad for 98% of the stuff out there.

There is no dialing it in . it is a fixed arbor. You don't know what you are talking about. You and 43 will come up with anything just to argue your idiot reasoning.

There is a reason for not using a CNC for the Lifter bores. But you wouldn't know that since you are saying it takes you a while to line your BHJ fixture. The BHJ self aligns the lifter bores with the cam tunnel .

What does the CNC use for the program? The crank tunnel . Well what if the crank tunnel is out from the cam tunnel? The BHJ fixture aligns off the cam tunnel and there is many fixtures for different blocks they are not cheap. So I know for sure you don't have one.

We have them Mopars ,fords, and GM. Do I use them? No I don't. Do I have a shop on my property that does? Yes I do. My son just explained to me why CNC truing is not the best way. He is correct . He also said you are not worth the time of day to try and explain it to.
He said it would be like trying to teach someone with a big mouth and with no arms and legs how to swim.

Well if you used one Like you said or even watch and under stood the process you would know there is a fixture for every different block that places them in the correct position using the cam tunnel for the placement. How do you determine the bores are in spec using a CNC machine? What on the block do they use for reference?

Evidently you’ve never used a mill. Your son can teach me nothing.

I suggest you don’t come on here and act like you can walk up to a machine and run it. You can’t. You take pictures.

Dont criticize someone when you can’t do what they can do and have done. You don’t have a clue.

Have you never seen a blueprint? They don’t just grab the block and start machining on them. It’s called...never mind. You still won’t get it.
 
So what is the end goal for this motor what will be you using it for, It seems that price is no concern.
 
I can't wait to hear it with 2 1/4 zoomies . Should rev quick. We'll get it on the run stand soon. Its been a long time since I heard this engine. And now its getting some serious upgrades. .

Have you looked at this video about crank rotational mass? It's pretty interesting.

Can you answer the question. What do you reference the lifter bores off of on a CNC.? You cannot answer that can you?

I know how to reference the job I want to hear it from you the mouth. And who do you think taught my son how to run a mill. You just keep making up stories. just as my son and other machinist said

I already told you. You won’t understand. Can you read a blueprint? Didn’t think so.

Who cares what your son says? Why is he talking for you? Oh, it’s because you don’t know **** and after you run your mouth and get called on it you go to him to bail you out.

Tell me how you how you referenced the lifter bores? The question you won't answer because you don't know the answer. Your what we call a mouth in the shop. Someone who can do it all with their mouth. Hired many just like you

Dam well right I can read a blue print. I was a machinist at the Bethlehem steel at 18 yrs old right out of school in 1973 and ran a Gun lathe .

Race engine machinist ? I can do some of the old day things but there is no need for me to do anything at my age but have fun. I have owned my own mills and lathes since 1995. Gave several mills away when I bought others . I gave a mill to Shady Dell and showed him how to run it when I found out he didn't own one. Tool boxes filled with tooling. I know a hell of a lot more then you do .

For one reason, I listen an learn from those who know. I watch my son every day the best in my eyes and learned from some of the best in the business. I may question some things from people but that is how I learned, Just by some of your replies I would never listen to a word out of your mouth.

Answer that one question above or are you still trying to find it on the web. You don't have a clue.
 
Listen what he says. Exactly why we bought this crank

There should be more weight coming off this crank balancing it using these rods and pistons.

The reason for the Ross pistons we chose was to increase compression to 13-1.

If and I mean IF you can read a blue print then you should know how to find the lifter bore bank angles and center lines.

You know, or at least you should know the print shows the X, Y and Z .000 for any location on that print.

So eat me moron. Any fool knows that. Do you think the OE’s didn’t use prints that outline the machining targets? And the .000’s?

That’s how you do it. You need the PRINT. I have the print for ALL a small block 18 degree heads. All 6 of the drawings.

I answered what you wanted you blow hard. You know nothing stooge.
 
Again what part of the block do you use to reference the block on the machine? Everyone knows there is a program and it uses. X,Y, Z. You stated that a CNC will locate the lifter bores. To true them. What do you use as a reference for the starting point for the program to place the bores in the correct position and at the correct angle? Since you cannot answer I am assuming you never did it. Because if you did it you would know the CNC mill doesn't find the start point on its own.

And the blue print is not something you program in and tell the machine to find the position where you set the block on the table. How the hell would it know where to start.

Every block is different you need to touch off at places on the block . Where would that be ? You can't even understand the words reference point. And you run a CNC?
I don't run one but I watched and am smart enough to know that you need those points to start. You don't even know that. Give me a break.
Your getting mad now aren't you. Because you don't know. Clue: There is probably more then one spot you would need to locate after you lock down the block on the table. Don't tell me? Its at location X Y and Z. LMFAO

Fool , Blowhard, Stooge. Eat me Moron. Is that anyway to talk to a friend? I thought you were a good friend.
 
that crank sure is pritty, but those pistons are a work of art. they are too light for paper weights. bet they are profile milled on the inside.
this engine is going to rev like a chainsaw, hope you have a rev limiter.

Yes it does.What happened was The shift light and limiter were set the same at 8000 and it would flutter right before it would shift So we raised the limiter to to 9000.

I drove the car one day and and the recall hit 9300. I didn't use the shift light. I was to busy trying to keep the car on the road at the end of second with the tires lit. . So my son lowered the limiter to 8500. We put that poor engine through hell for 8 years.

We refreshed it but its wrapped up in plastic for about 3 years. But now its coming apart because we can afford to do it the way we wanted to from the start. I have seen similar small blocks recalls at the end of the 10,000 tach. we are staying with the same cam so 8000 is good .

We just want 1000 lbs off of the car and cut back on as much reciprocating weight as possible. Light weigh spool, billet clutch drum, Carbon fiber drive shaft, and a bunch of Titanium hardware and fasteners.

Why ? Its on my bucket list, If I could feel the g's with one good solid 170 mph 1/4 mile pass behind the wheel I wouldn't care if my heart gave out when I push the shoot lever . I would die with a smile on my face.
 
Steve, an aluminum drum is way lighter. I put one in my tranny. It has a steel sleeve on it. There are light weight kits for the 727. I have 1 in mine. Kim
