That crankshaft is deeeeeeeeeelux Dave. Just superb!
Hello Dave,That's a neat little pump and installation with all the pressure and delivery passages machined into the blocks. I see you have gone away from the idea of an externally located pump. You said the external location was to give access to the pump during development. You are obviously more comfortable with this version of the design, because when the two sides of the crankcase are eventually bolted together, it's in there for keeps.67 hours last week...... you can thatMike
Looks like a very neat and easy installation of the pumps I must admit that I'm not sure I got all the detail right in my head. I presume that the two lower holes are the oil entry points for the two of tree pumps - but what is the the input to the one closest to the pumps input shaft ?The recesses on the pumps outputs, are they for the o-rings Great that you got a good income after some hard times, but I understand if you would have liked it, to be more even workload over time ....Per
Hi Dave,Incredible build so far and love it every time there's a bit more progress to be admired. The thrust bearing idea is excellent, are you using 25x32x4 bearings? I'm using these on the DFV crank but cannot find a flanged version of it.ThanksJon
Hi Dave, I am following along quietly all time.Impressive to watch the progress.There is an always upcoming desire to ask you for the plans/drawings if it is coming closer to the final stage.
