914World.com _ 914World Garage _ One piece cylinder and head

Posted by: r_towle Aug 19 2013, 03:58 PM

I recall seeing someone, possibly the type 1 world, that was making a CNC made one piece head and cylinder that you bolt to the cae at the bottom.

Does anyone know who that is?

Rolls Royce?

Sorry, that is indeed an interesting idea. I am not sure I would like to work on the valves, but it still sounds cool.

It may have been the Australian guys, or the guys in denmark working on the overhead cam type 4 heads....
