You must have been REALLY BOARD.
I would of use solidworks or anything else besides autocad....
Good job.

Solids in Autocad are fairly easy to use once you know hwo to use all the tools correctly. I can pop out one like the first one in about 30 minutes.
Cylinders 1 and 4 are together, and 2 with 3 the same. The intake cam doesn't protrude from the block where it connects to the PS pump. Pretty good overall. How long did that take you?
thats awesome. the only thing i noticed right away was the manifold, if its supposed to be 2.3 HO it hangs to low.. but looks great.. i took a year of auto cad and havent used it since.. was pretty cool tho. if i had the program id prolly use it more..
That is the 2.3HO yes. the whole model took me about 5 hours total, there is a lot of detail in many of the parts suck as the block has most of the coolant ports and oiling holes, the head has the intake and exhaust ports cut out of it. those little things which you can't really notice took the longest. and the manifold looks like its hanging too low because of that particular view. I'd really like to make a very detailed model of that engine and others, it could help people out who are looking at getting machining done or anything like that.

I have been thinking of doing something like that. I am just getting started in cad at school. We are learning on NX3 however. Me and that program arent really getting along well. I have a final project due at the end of the year where I have to do assemblies. My partner and I chose a turbonetics turbo though.
The Model looks really good though. Try and work on the cam specs. And like CTS said, the cylinders 1 and 4 are together and 2 and 3 are together.

wow...better than what i could ever do. The intake cam does stick out of the cam tower on the 94 and older 2.3l quads. keep up the good work
That's pretty good, especially for not having any dimensions

a turbo is going to be hard to do, the fins are tricky. At least in autocad, don't know how nx3 works
Great work! I wish I had that kind of time to play around lol. I spend my hours working on the magazine
Not bad for not having actual measurments.

That bored at work eh Chris
Nice work
ha ha, yea soletare is getting old i guess lol. as for the fins on a turbo, it wouldnt be that hard at all. draw one as a polyline, extrude it and then array it. voilla... easy as pie. ur just send me the dimensions and ill whip it up for ya!

Yeah, I figured it would be pretty tough, but then again, our instructor wants us to choose something hard to do.

That is pretty much how I was going to try to do it. However, the fins are curved and twisted so something else is going to have to be involved. it can be done, i might just need the instrucors help a little

Well I just tried it, its just a simple one but u get the idea. it took me about a half hour, but not too too difficult. I didnt put alot of time into it but i know you can make it look alot better.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
very cool!! Mind If I ask what steps you used to do it?
I just talked to my prof a few minutes ago and he was pleased to see my partners and I chose something like this. Apparently we are now doing a "turbo kit" with charge pipes, BOV, Wastgate, T bolt clamps, couplers, down pipe, intercooler, and a turbonetics turbo. I have to model the exaust housing, couplers, the wheel shaft, and intercooler. Should be fun. I will post up some pics when I get it done if you want.

check out acad 2007, huge improvements with 3d.
That sounds really cool, i was going to do one as well, but in autocad, its not the same as if you used solidworks, its a much better 3d program all around, or really any solid modeling program. When your done, you should animate the turbo as well, that would be cool, and its not that hard.
all I did was create the cylinder at the bottom for a base, make another for the center, make a rectangle stretching from the quadrant of the cylinder to the outside of the box (for the fins),rotate the UCS, make a curved polyline that makes the "wave", then extrude the box along that. thats basically it, then it was just subtract a few things to make the overall shape.
Like I said i rushed through it to see how difficult it was. It takes a couple trys to get it right but I think it will turn out nicely.
If you finish that whole project, definitely post it up with dimensions if you could. that would help people who want to go turbo figure out how much material they need and where to place the pipes.
Good luck with the project!

im a cad drafter and where can i go to find the specifications/dimensions for a 2.2L motor. i tried looking online but came up empty
