[SuperB70]

Been awhile.. But be sure project has goon forward.. alot..

Lets continue build this intake. Next task, build intake top plate and to mill recess to it for supercharger mounting plate. Bolts for that can be on the sides, but front and back edges are under the blower. So I milled step edge on those. The plate will lock tight against O-ring when blower is lowered and pushed back. Top plate is bolted with countersink bolts and had to check twice that bolts clear all the rest. A lot of going on here.

Then copied the supercharger mounting bolt pattern and discharge port shape and location and transfer it to mounting plate. Straight, super important thing here.

Finally supercharger is bolted on top of the intake. First time. Now can take it off the engine and take it to our large vertical boring machine to face off front and back faces. With machine that size and options, its easy to do this kind of tasks. Reat time to practice Heidenhain programming..

Same time I started to do next cool parts. Supercharger intake flance. Took photo of the supercharger, imported is as canvas to Fusion360. After drawing it until I was satisfied, then 3d printed it out from PLA, just to veryfy that it will work. Print quality isnt great but dont care, it works. I transfer model to Surfcam and made toolpaths for it and started our Haas mill. Came out awesome. Have super plans how to continue from here. Again, finnish afer machining isnt super great but dont care, it will see some tig-glue so it will get worse before gets much better.

Next to open front and back faces for intercooler fittings. ¨Then need to design, draw and machine a plate to seal everything up.

does anybody like to see more?
