Yeah I’ve used a few in the past but most are vector renders of complete models and hard to breakup into parts. I do needs to have things separate(Ie heads, slugs, block, etc). I’m always open to new companies and links though so send them my way bia PM 🙂 I can import files extension from Pro-E of prt/xpr/asm/xas/ and step files and iges 🙂 ---

Big thanks to Shaun(SP, shawn, Schaunn, ?? lolz) Made a total ass of myself in front of him when loading the parts into truck and the cam decided to take a nose dive out of the end of the box onto the driveway.

Wasn’t a couple days after getting the heads and cam from Sean that we ended up pulling and LS1 apart at the machine shop :lol So I took all the parts home from the machine shop that I wouldn’t be borrowing from Sean when their motor comes out and put them all into CAD while I had the chance. Some stuff you LS1 guys might recognize. I made some subtle changes to some parts like the VC’s and oil pump cover. Head is 90% done too, just took a break from that when all these parts fell in my hands. All the valves/rockers/pushrods/lifters are done too, as well as the front timing covers and galley cover. Stuff that’s left: Block/crank/rod/piston/wrist pin/flat sump oil pan When I get the bottom end from Sean I can finish this up and start the real fun :ohnoes ![http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/camsprocket.jpg](http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/camsprocket.jpg) ![http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/rearc.jpg](http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/rearc.jpg) ![http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/valvec.jpg](http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/valvec.jpg) ![http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/lguide.jpg](http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/lguide.jpg) ![http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/oilpump.jpg](http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/oilpump.jpg) ![http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/expoilpump.jpg](http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o285/Boxxersix/expoilpump.jpg) ---
