4 the haters

[Sammy~D]

So my old post was deleted but here is a few pictures and the set up we have. like i said be fore we are just getting into the auto parts side of things but here is a few pictures of some of the machining we have done


tm3


tm2


brother on the lathe


the family


some of the sample parts we have ran


parts with tolerance of +/- 0


+/- 0 also

so this is just a few things we have made so throttle bodys and bbbs and other sorts are not all that challanging

I want 44mm butterflies, just housings. No plates. Make them, i will test, and dyno. Fair enough?

 

[intimdatr]

Is there enough metal in the stock housings to get 44mm?

If you plan of selling parts here your going to need to either do some sort of group buy or work out details with Beth on it.
Also I would be really interested in finding out how to make parts with 0 tolerance especally scince metal contracts and expands with temp. And where you can find bits at the same zero tolerance to make this happen?

 

[Sammy~D]

the last 2 peices just for the ringed lip take over 10 passes to do in very small increments and the final 3 passes take off less matirial than half of a human hair each time. it is not all jobs that require 0 just those 2 and it took hours and hours to prefect. i dont want to make it sound like i just whiped them up it was alot of work of trial and error. Also im not selling parts yet just getting an idea of what people would want. no transactions in this thred. and it was intended on being mn local but it does not look like that is the case any more.

This.

I've been a machinist/fabricator/mechanical engineer my entire adult life. Everything has a tolerance, because proper engineering designs it that way.

Maybe an extremely tight tolerance, but 0 is unrealistic and damn near impossible.

i agree until i pick up a set of butterflies i dont know how much i am working with. correct me if i am wrong but aren't current bbb kits 3mm over stock and at that it is a thin wall?

yes you are correct i called on it i apologize it was +.00155-0 but still at that is super super close cut

and SinisterSHO sorry if not every thing is spelled 100% i am on my phone and i cant type on the key boards worth a damn

Hey Sammy D. WHere is your shop located I have some butterflies laying around I could drop off as long as you make me a set of the biggest butterflys you can ill be a test dummy (one thats in the state) I can also bring you Tbs and whatever else you could make. I have lots of TBs and butterflys. you make me a set and ill give you a set

In typical SHOForum fashion, errybody wants something free. lol.

Sammy, good luck to you and the crew. Nice looking machines you have.

But don't ever, ever give anything away, even if it is for testing purposes.

 

[Sammy~D]

what do you mean?

 

[jayro]

I am pretty sure there is not enough material for 44mm. They would have to be a custom machined unit.....like th HBB that were made.

If your caliper is only marked in tenths of an inch perhaps . . . .

 

[zach44102]

Stock butterfly = 38mm
Bbb = 40mm

Stock butterflies are done at 40mm.

 

[intimdatr]

Stock butterfly = 38mm
Bbb = 40mm

Stock butterflies are done at 40mm.

What i figured.

 

[SHOtime2511]

**** 2mm bigger butterflies.
gearset please.

 

[Art5]

Very nice work, man. Thank you for doing this, no matter what... I wish you could do something with that intake to make it easily accept some kind of bolt-on supercharger(m-112).

 

[Sammy~D]

i was tossing the idea of the bbbs with my dad today and not knowing sho at all he came up with a good out side idea ill put a drawing up shortly... and as for gear set we can not do them but we are close to a gear and spline company if i can get skematics on it im sure the can do it
