    Default Need Automotive Parts Blocks

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hey everyone. I am looking for 2D (elevation & plan) blocks of the following:

    Small block Chevy engine
    Small block Chevy Tunnel Ram intake manifold
    TH350 or TH400 Transmission.

    Anyone have a line on where I can find these?

    Thanks
    ZM

    I assume that you have tried Googling "chevrolet parts cad drawings" and looking at the images?

    Clicking on an image should bring up an enlarged view, with the option to visit the website it came from and see what else they have.

    This Chevy Small Block 3D Model for instance: https://www.3dcadbrowser.com/download.aspx?3dmodel=1599
    Once you have a model you can take any 2D views you like from it.

    You are probably going to have to pay for stuff like this though.

    These guys have OEM CAD files and say they have a library of Chevy stuff, they also scan parts themselves.

    Or have you tried contacting Chevrolet themselves?

    Yes, I've tried Google. All I have is AutoCAD, is there a simple process to cut 2D view from a model? I've never done 3D or worked with anything 3D.

    The SectionPlane and BaseView (ViewBase) commands can be used to extract a sectional view from a 3D model. I wonder how much internal detail someone modeling a 3D engine would actually provide (if at all)?

    Not sure, I only and needing the external views for mocking up. That 3D place has perfect models but it is way too much money for me to spend.

    Your profile says that you are using Autocad LT?
    Is that correct?

    Is there anyone I could email the 3D files to and send me back the plan and elevation 2D views of the complete engine/transmission?

    Thanks
