Cool piece if he were running a carburetor.
With fuel injection and an ECM he'd need an ECM controlled distributor.

That mag is pretty sweet, I could run two and have a rotary switch in the cabin...Take me back to my flying days...As mentioned though, I am running EFI so someone else better scoop it up.

some sort of 3d scan?

Bingo! I'm doing a photogrammetric 3D scan of the block. The process is sensitive to reflective surfaces, so I'm covering the machined areas with paper. The flaking orange plate and bare cast iron should work pretty well without doing anything else. When there's a nice overcast day I'll drag the block outside and take around 200 photos at around 5-10° spacing and varying heights. These will then be stitched into a point cloud model of the block.

I also have a process I'm working up to do the same thing for the engine bay.

Ive watched this thread since day one in 04.

Figured now was the time to speak up.

I am essentially missing a few pieces to finish my engine, I need the Hilborn Injection manifold or carbed intake for the 801 head, I need a flywheel, and id like a cast alum timing cover. If anybody has any leads on this stuff I would greatly appreciate the info.


Thank you guys, been a good read here for 10 years.

I'm late to this thread, but I'm wondering how the 3D scan worked out? When I started to upgrade my turbo, I scanned all my parts/engine bay to import to solidworks. I know its not professional quality, but I was able to pickup the important header flange 'planes' and get an idea of spacial relationships.

I've also been watching since the first week, eagerly anticipating the finished product. Any decade now...

So I scored a new old stock Quartermaster Carbon-V clutch. It's from 2001, but brand new in box. 3 disc, 5.5". I would have liked one of the new Tilton or QM Carbon clutches, but I got this thing for ~$850, which is something like $3500 off the new price so there's that. And it has an extra flywheel that I won't be needing so I can recoup a little there too :-D

Another $300 for a new 1"x23 spline hub to go into the F40, and I'll be on my way. At this point I'm still leaning towards this solution:



I'm still looking at needing an additional 3/8" of clearance that will need to come from a spacer plate between the engine and trans. I was hoping to get everything packaged in without needing that, but I don't think it's going to happen. The clutch mounting surface sits ~1.43" out from the bellhousing. Max clutch clearance height is 2.23", plus 0.10" for good measure. That puts me at 3.66" I need to clear inside the bellhousing, and the max worn set-up height would be at 3.09" total.
