spud15 looks ace. Lovely work. (An aluminium block that takes later chambered heads of some type would be good)
I might have better than that!

Pressed 2 mm sections and then the sides machined to size and weld the halves together to form the D port shape. Next step injector bosses and plenums to join into a common throttle body. Once the distributor is removed this will make room for the throttle body.

Wow! That is some seriously impressive machining there! Not engine parts, works of art :) Love it. Keep the pics coming.

Next project complete. Subaru WRX 99 front seats installed. Massive amount of work and two prototypes before it was refined. I made up one set of seats from two sets to get good quality upholstery. One set from Brisbane and the other from Woolongong. I bought aftermarket runners and mounted inboard enough to clear the tunnel. The baseplate I machined from 6 mm aluminium, this bolts to the original spots on the floor except for the rear bolts I drilled through with studs and nuts underneath. The runners then connect to a laser cut and folded 3 mm sheet with 3/4 RHS braces in the necessary areas. I cut the original recliner mechanism off the Subaru frame and connected to my frame. The other side pivot for the back rest was designed into the sheet metal frame. The next problem was to get the adjuster mechanism to work in the narrow area. By using a lever on each side to actuate the release catches and welded to the ends of 8mm rod and pivoting on rod ends and then a horizontal lever with 6mm rod ends to connect. It worked perfectly.
