Hi, where unsure if I should post a project thread, but friends pushed me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif
I'm trying to build a car the way I want. The car is an Volvo 142 -73. They are rather common i Sweden, but all of them are piston-engineed. It started with a simple 4-link-build. But now it all has got out of hands... I will post as much pictures as possible, but there is alot old pictures so I also link my older swedish project-thread so you all can se my progress-pictures. I let the pictures talk for them self at first. Visit my album at Photobucket, to much to upload! All work is done by myself. Right now I'm all hands with the 4rotor-build from my own CADs and handwork. Everything is made in house. http://s815.photobucket.com/albums/z...20Wolvo%20142/ Have problem to post images?! How many pictures can I have in every post?? A teaser... http://i815.photobucket.com/albums/z...stllning-3.jpg Best Regards Tegheim - Mooseville Performance |
you can post as many images as you want.
Awesome project man, looks like it's going to amazing! |

This is how it could look when I'm measure an 20B-shaft https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif
https://i815.photobucket.com/albums/...4-05001-30.jpg Have only rough-turned the both sides to 46mm, will drill the oil-chanel and so on before I do the fine-cut. Attachment 16749 Attachment 16750 |

Sorry for the fast rewind https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif
Have started on the two loose ends. And as I did with the main-shaft, I spared a few bucks taking a smaller material, but then I have to turn the centre from an excenter from start. But why not https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif All you can save in money you can have more fun fore https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif https://i815.photobucket.com/albums/...4-10001-30.jpg Attachment 16740 Attachment 16741 Attachment 16742 Attachment 16743 Attachment 16744 Attachment 16745 Attachment 16746 Attachment 16747 Attachment 16748 |

Have started on the big end's inside of the lose lobs. Sorry for my bad english, don't know realy what the name's are for things https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif But you'll understand by the pictures I hope https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif
As you can see they are about 10mm to long, just to keep the key-grip. With the keygrip I know where to put the holes and so on, without indicate on the lobe. https://i815.photobucket.com/albums/...4-16001-30.jpg Attachment 16732 The two brothers wanted to pose beside their father https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.gif https://i815.photobucket.com/albums/...4-16005-30.jpg Attachment 16733 Attachment 16734 Tegheim 4Rotor vs. Mazda 20B Attachment 16735 Attachment 16736 |

This changes the entire concept of "build". Very admirable, you will have an amazing understanding of the engine when you are done. |

Very admirable, you will have an amazing understanding of the engine when you are done. Yes, hopefully I will learn more and more if the engine, and even more before it's starting up I hope, so I donät need to do it all again https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif |
this isn't a "build" thread but more of a manufacture thread. lol. looks like its going to be a killer build though. definetly watching this. cheers mate.

Very important for me is that you all understand that I'm not an company or working in a Speedshop. I'm working with CNC-mill, and have the opportunity from my boss to use the machines at nights and weekends for private projects. The whole project are payed with own money, no sponsors or gifts https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif The whole concept are my own drawings. Got bored searching for any hints on the Internet and all of our forums about 4rotor. Decided to use MasterCam X4, and Inventor to draw the shaft my self https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif Therefore I don't can guarantee that it works https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif The complete shaft will cost about 10K SEK, that is about 1400 USD today https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif Regards Tegheim - Mooseville Performance |

Have drawn the rear counterweight. It's not precise, but near enough at the moment.
This weekend I moved the last from my old appartment to our new house, so soon the "build" will continue https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif http://i815.photobucket.com/albums/z...lansvikt-2.jpg Attachment 16683 |
i fully understand that, it was more of a joking statement. what you have so far is about as badass as it gets. keep up the good work man!!!
p.s. out of curiosity, what do you do for a living? are you a machinist? zack |

p.s. out of curiosity, what do you do for a living? are you a machinist? zack I understood that you were joking, but wanted to explain anyways. Have had many threads in other forums there people thought I was a member of an speedshop, or the owner https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif I dont wanna be mixed up with some company comercials https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif For a living I works in a small industrial company with 30 employees. I operate CNC-mills with very unusual and rare parts in the waterpower industry. Often 3D-surfaces and so on. So when I first started to turn the shaft in the Lathe, I had never operated a CNC-Lathe. So the estimated time was pretty long at first https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif Have done all my CNC-work in MasterCam so far. |
haha sounds good. that sounds like a pretty interesting job. well anyways keep up the amazing work!!! kudos

Thank you! Don't miss out the rest of the car! Have build an own frame and front suspension in a welding-fixture in my garage. Wolvo 142 - 26B |
Are you going to machine your own rotors and housings? Work looks great, keep it up!!
|
No, at first I will use stock parts. Maybe when they have tried out the billet-rotors more I could try it to. But housing isn't any idea of making my self.
|
As the 4rotor-build have some waiting and contruction-brain-burnout build in, I continued with the chassi and body meanwhile. I promise to update the engine as soon as something funny happen.
See more at my other thread if you are curios https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/top...75#entry937975 |
The shaft is up on the wall again, at least at the table https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

Is there any interest here, or should I save me some time, not updating? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif
|
Keep going!!!
|
Please keep going!
|
Yes, do keep going. I for one am just trying to keep the thread clear of useless posts. Nothing worse than finding an Epic Thread and there are two pages of junk posts for every update.

I don't have the tools to do spurgears really, but I wanna try, and it worked out pretty well https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif
http://i815.photobucket.com/albums/z...1-14002-30.jpg |
When it turned out pretty well, I thought, maybe I should simulate endbearing of the axle as well. Too bad I didn't do the spurgear so long that I could do the M27x1.5 thread also. That will be on the next test-piece https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif
