Default Screen Saver

Hey Buddy, there was a previous post about a screen saver of a small block chevy motor going together. Not exactly what you were looking for, but still pretty cool.

Here is the link: http://smallblockscreensaver.com/default.aspx

A lot of us would dearly love to have a CAD drawing of this. Frame and body too! It's not easy to find if it's out there. Twin Turbo had some suspension parts I believe but I haven't seen him around lately. And there was a guy in Canada who was working on a 6-link IRS assembly a while back also. Don't know where he's at with that.

My skills with AutoCAD are pretty basic and I haven't made much progress. Our cars have very few straight lines.

Fathom 427 - that's a great link. Thanks.

You can reach Marc (twin turbo) at his website VetteMOD http://vettemod.com/forum/index.php I know Marc has a lot of drawings that he did which started back when he was heavy into the CFI scene on the Crossfire Injection Vault forum back in the day. I haven't seen him here for some some time. WOW! It's been that long already.

Me personally? rough planning fitment and location for an electric hot rod conversion
In general though, having cad files around and centralized is super helpful for the community overall

I have a dwg of the 6-link design by Pier Paolo, plus a modified version for the batwing on the 80-82. I used that to model it in Solidworks.
