I've acquired a SD-4 Cosworth (IMSA) engine with a few spares. Although it's not yet here, I'm considering a turbo upgrade for a Bonneville car. Are you making your intake / exhaust flanges available? It would sure save a lot of head ache!
Thanks!

I'll send a PM, we can discuss it! Right now the current set of flanges are reserved for Alan Samura.

Loving this thread BTW.
Question(s) : You're using PRO-E, correct? How do you like it? Never had to use it career wise, but always kind of wanted to learn it. I've always been stuck on Siemens NX, Inventor, or Solidworks.
Side question: If you ever want some help with analysis, feel free to forward some models over. I can run them through ANSYS simulation (if you don't already have access to) not only under static loads but with vibrations as well.
Cheers,
Joe

CATIA actually. Most of the analysis I've done in CATIA as well, which uses a fairly fully-featured ABAQUS solver. Some analysis I've done with ANSYS and PATRAN/NASTRAN. Most of the pretty pictures I post here are from CATIA. Here's a screenshot from the flywheel stuff I was working on last year. Last year? Scratch that, 2011. WOW. Okay:
That's a combined loading scenario, showing 12,000 RPM (3K over-rev) as well as an angular acceleration equivalent to a very harsh clutch engagement or missed shift. I think it was something like 800,000°/s². Anyway, I have a lot of fun doing this, and unfortunately there's a lot of analysis and pictures that unfortunately I have been too lazy to post. I'd be happy to send you some models and scenarios that I'd like to see and compare results.
I'm hoping to make some updates (on NEW news) later this week.

I'm buying another new Cosworth head kit. This one is supposed to be complete.

You must hate yourself if you're using nastran/pastran.

Occupational hazard, given the industry I work in. 
So as I mentioned above I found another complete (new) Cosworth head kit. This should have everything I need to get the kinks worked out. The guys that I'm getting it from in Puerto Rico were turbocharged using stock Cosworth cams on a 3.0L Pontiac SD block. He said their last dyno pull was 1200hp. Best 1/4 mile time was 7.01 @ 198.
Once the kit arrives, if everything checks out I may start thinking about getting rid of my 2-valve head, intake, and pistons. I'd like to see someone complete a turbo setup with my 2V head. It's really close. The guy I'm getting the Cosworth kit from also has a few SCAT billet cranks and a block, as well as some other assorted parts that he's cleaning out of the shop. I have his email if anyone wants to get in touch.

You don't know how much this update excites me, been following this thread for years. Only tripped over it again because I was perving at Nick Arias Jr aluminium SD4 blocks
