In this thrilling episode of StanceWorks, the team embarks on a daring mission involving not one but two powerful Ferrari V12 engines. One destined for the iconic F40 and the other, a variant from the FF and GTC4 Lusso, serving as a crucial mockup piece. The crew dives headfirst into disassembling and meticulously cleaning these beasts, preparing them for their respective roles in the project. With a keen eye for detail, they opt to swap the direct injection system for port injection, a move that promises enhanced performance and customization opportunities.
As the engines are stripped down, the team showcases their ingenuity by using 3D printed caps to prevent any mishaps during the intricate process. The decision to eliminate bulky and weighty components from the direct injection setup reflects their dedication to optimizing every aspect of the build. Through meticulous planning, they aim to rid the engines of unnecessary brackets and tabs, streamlining them for their future purpose in the custom project. The meticulous 3D scanning of the engines, facilitated by cutting-edge technology from Creality, sets the stage for the creation of bespoke parts tailored to perfection.
Furthermore, the team's commitment to precision extends to their new 3D scanner, a game-changer in capturing intricate details essential for the project's success. With a focus on designing engine mounts, exhaust flanges, and other components, the CAD file derived from the scans becomes a vital tool in shaping the project's future. The introduction of a powerful shop PC from Orbital Computers underscores their dedication to utilizing top-notch equipment for seamless CAD work. The journey culminates in the cleaned and reassembled engines, shedding light on the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that define the StanceWorks team's approach to automotive excellence.
