Twin 360's

I recently cut a odd ball spline in a 4 wheeler drive shaft.
I had no hobb and am not going to spend $1000+ for one
freebe job.

Anyway, using a NC multi axis lathe mill hybrid machine I cut
the spline with a 60 degree threading insert indexing the odd
angles off center to get the correct angles and diameters.

That is how I would do a crank. I shaved the shafts
at a .0004 depth of cut per pass. It was time consuming
but it made a perfect spline.

I am thinking that to shorten the engine try and internal balance
the monster, then dry sump it and crank trigger the ignition
eliminating the center oil pump and housing.
Of course the rear cam still has to be driven in the center
resulting in the need for a wet (oil wet) center housing.

Wife should be happy, since it sounds the same. When things get noisey and unweildy, traveling companions become a bit of a grumbly nuisance, until you can drown everything out with a 1500 watt stereo.
