I intend on making myself titanium connecting rods. Don't tell me its a bad idea. I'm already set on doing it. BUT, I want input on the exact shape. I'm assuming that the structure has to be a little different to downplay brittleness in titanium. Porsche factory did titanium. Does anyone have one that could take a picture for me?

Its amazing you are so critical of other people's abilities. How do you know his machinist hasnt done R&D for major auto makers? How do you know his machinist didnt write the book on engine machining? How do you know this machinist hasnt been a college instructor? And has been doing this for YEARS. I happen to use the same machinist as Clayton, and if he says he can work with Ti, it means he has done it and probably mastered it. Also, cheap is relative. So is speed. And speed isnt cheap. |
