I scratch built the cad (nurbs) based off a 1971 Porsche 911T engine. Most of the internals are there too.

Optimusglen,
Kudos on the modeling. Did you by chance tear down the engine to get all the details?
Yes, I disassembled the engine and modeled each part individually taking measurements as I went.
Welcome! This is absolutely impressive. Well done on the modeling and the rendering. Would love to see more detail shots!
This is a painstakingly impressive job! truly amazing!
Thanks all, I've been meaning to revisit these. I've grown a bit in my material and lighting since I made the last images. I'll try and get some more detail shots.
I've always wanted to try to model an engine - this is definitely impressive as hell.
Really amazing, I really like the passionate approach behind this project ... well done ;)
I had some time to make some progress on materials. Hope you guys like it.
