Progress on my 2.2T build for my 914 has slowed a bit due to funding. So I was able to take that effort and begin a project that I've wanted to do for months.
I'm 3D modeling the whole engine. Model work is done using Creo, the images rendered using Keyshot. Started on a few of the easier parts, well maybe not the easiest, but together they make up a large chunk of the engine and a big push of progress at the beginning helps the project move along. I'm modeling these from actual parts, on my dining room table. Which is another reason I started with these particular parts, they're already cleaned. Anyway, here's the first shot. More progress later in the week because I'll have a bit of time, but this is an open ended project. It gets work when I can.

Did some more design work on my outlaw model, certainly not for everyone but it's been fun making a hotrod.
No plans to make any of this, since most of it would be useless in the real world. But it's been fun seeing where the boundaries are from a design standpoint, stepped over a few times and reined it back a little, still pushing strong at that boundary though so if you're a purist, or pretend to be one, you're assuredly going to dislike it. Even if you're not a purist, these design elements have proven to not be everyone's taste. That's ok. Now that that's out of the way, lets get into it! Up front, I created a new turn signal lens and bucket incorporating a new vent to funnel air to the front brakes. Fender vents are unchanged. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/c1.staticflickr.com-19709-1510888460.1.jpg) Changed the lugs to studs, and added some Michelin branding (not a sponsor) as well. Out back I started playing around with a modern tail light assembly. These also incorporate small side vents and also use some lighting techniques seen on modern cars. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/c1.staticflickr.com-19709-1510888462.2.jpg) The roof spoiler remains unchanged, but I added a second purpose of supporting the front wheel of a bicycle! Haha. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/c1.staticflickr.com-19709-1510888462.3.jpg) The rear part of the rack is just roughed in currently, but you get the idea. Then I played around with a few colors.
