Technically very nice. I’m not savvy enough to know what engine it’s for. Any info?
It is the top portion of an engine block. A V6. Looks like a Japanese made block, most likely Toyota or Honda. lol
Nice model by the way.
Hi, thanks, it’s an american V6 2.7lt cylinder block
I am smart enough to count :) and to know what part of the engine it is, I was wondering if there was any signifigance to the overall engine – like the racing V6 used in the Renault Alpine R73A to win the Targa Largo in East Boligrad in 1978 (that’s all made up, of course). Classic engine blocks can be like fine wine, identifiable by those who know their provenance. :)
Sorry to dissappoint you, but it’s a very ordinary block based off a rather boring car that’s still on the streets in high numbers, sorry can’t tell you which as it’s resemblance is a little too good and I’m sure the company in question wouldn’t be too happy… You’re right about classic engine blocks though, I’m going to try and dig out a mono-block (head + cylinders) of an old Ferrari that was done in CATIA V4…
Thanks for the extra information. I understand the necessity of staying mum. It would be great to see the old Ferrari if you can find it! I have a book that just shows the “Top 10” motors. It is a real treasure of information. There is a lot of artistry that goes into engineering, manufacturing and building an engine. Capturing the history of that artistry is valuable.
