I’m going to find the person responsible for this music existing and I’m going to have a stern talking to.

Could a pressure washer pump be used to dyno test a small engine?

Awesome!!!!!

This is now OUR project as we are emotionally involved. Please don't stop posting

Best Video Ever

Where's the car ??

Cool!!!

This video was really informative! In addition to this video, can you make a second video on the Mazda car hood linkage and its design?

Was looking everywhere for Audi A4 transaxle info, especially when it comes to adapting to a LS. So glad you put out this video. You did a great edit, can't believe it's got under a 1000 likes.

Few question- how much ground clearance do you have and also is there any underside protection? Looks like to didn’t need it for that course but is it in case I ever find anything out in the dirt I am protected lol

Mind blown!

I am a new subscriber to your channel here. What type of mid engine car are you building here? What are you intending to do with this?

are all electronic components and computer programs also included when you buy the drawings?Will there be an update on this in the future? do not mean included but which ones should I buy! how does it work with smaller engines such as chainsaws down to 1 hp

Anyone else unable to use this correctly? I only care about my start and finish positions and there seems to be some limitation I’m not clear on

Check out my car on youtube ! Look under dettling sports car. I have all the tooling for producing this automobile for sale. Many people say it is the best constructed auto mobile in the world and it was designed to be exactly that. Contact me with email on my channel.

Thank you!! I’m using this concept to create a lift out floor hatch in my boat. Exactly what I needed to see to get past my mind block 👍😎

Hello Engineer, your video has inspired me a lot. I have a project that I would like to discuss with you in depth. Could u share ur e（@）mail for further discussion?

Awesome work man! I appreciate the knowledge you've shared in unveiling the process behind a vehicle's development. I've worked with MEs in my humble experience as an industrial/automotive designer, and it's definitely a balancing act with all the moving pieces (pun intended) ;P

the flang system for the 8 [i[es intoo the collector allso opens up a possibillity to experiment with header lengths you basicly add x length pipes welded in between two more flanges and add them between the headerflange and collector flange , it moves the exhaust back and down but if you can get it to fit you can see how it affects powerband and sound

Small pickup chassis. Remove engine. Replace solid rear axle with an independent rear end in factory cradle from donor car of choice.. Hook LS motor and gearbox directly to diff.

Never knew you could use CAD like this but it makes sense as it's so necessary

What computer are you running for these big solidworks files? Thanks

love the chopped mug

el Solidworks no te da la libertad que te da el AutoCAD en el dibujo libre, es mas facil hacer ese autito en AutoCAD, pero el SolidWorks hace simulaciones, analisis,...,

Very cool and great structure. Something else that might be of use is that you can colour your sketches... It doesn't all have to be grey. You can also change their thickness. I worked in the design of steel canopies for about 1y8m and using a solid body to derive your sheetmetal parts off of is also a handy method. Top down, each part gets its own file in the parent assembly and you do a Surface Offset = 0, Convert to Sheet Metal. If you don't like your sheet metal to then sit at weird angles in the drawing, you just have to float your part and mate the planes to a reference point on that body of your choosing and then do the surface offset etc. The only thing I noticed -that was an annoyance- is that SW's Task Scheduler didn't like this (but I think it had to do with me creating many variations for each vehicle through Pack and Go) and some original references would reference a much older parent part when trying to save the drawings this way, leading to error. I didn't have time to figure it out, but found a macro that would allow me to one-click save to PDF (the drawings)[ as long as you had saved the SW drawing first] in stead of going File>Save As, select PDF ... I also never found a great Macro that would help you sequentially save all your configurations of a sheetmetal part, which would have been great since I kept the both RH and LH parts as a configuration within the same part.

great content, thanks very much for sharing. i'm currently setting up a new laptop for Fusion 360 and will hopefully soon begin modeling my own mid engine car design. a top-down vs bottom-up question if i may, i think i know the answer but here goes: any bottom-up child component can be imported and/or referenced in the parent top-down design file, correct? ok, 2 questions: should the bottom-up component remain a separate file or shouls it be imported into the parent file, integrated into the parent's file structure and the child file archived? thanks. can't wait to see more on this.

I enjoy hearing what you have to say, but why the annoying background music? 3 minutes in, and I can't take it any more...

Awesome. Game developer here, currently learning CNC/VMC programming and solidworks. Doing 3D modelling is one thing, but the science & Engg behind the mechanism is another thing. What things do I need to study, to create mechanism of my own. ANother reason to learn this is, in modern games, such as Red Dead Redemption 2, we see horse animation, its all procedural, meaning the motion is all mathematical, there is research paper on how it is done. By learning this, it will also help me create procedural animations, also Animatronics also uses these things I guess. This is so insightful. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day ahead.

I'm an existing mechanical engineer that has ended up in the HVAC/industrial systems industry and would like to change to automotive design engineering. Should have paid attention more in school

Awesome work. im at the end of doing my know SOLIDWORKS design car and it is about to hit the Dyno. Its a big job build a car from scratch. really looking forward you seeing yours take shape

FSAE guys are soaking their parents while listening to how to implement top-down design in SoildWorks.

I'm a mechanical engineering student in my senior year and I want to be a design engineer one day. These videos are so informative and I just wanted to thank you for posting these! I'm currently doing my senior design project and these videos have been helpful to me.

Could this be implemented into the design of a 3D printer? Like top-down designing?

Thank you for the detailed video. You should checkout the OnShape CAD system, some of the same folks from SolidWorks. I am also a SW user at heart, but OnShape really makes references and assemblies easy. You can create multiple bodies (parts) in the same file and then they can be related and treated as an assembly. No file transferring or hopping between part tabs for different sketch references, etc. It feels weird going to an easier system after learning the SW struggles lol.

great video! Really helped. I was wondering if this technique also works if I have a 4th or a 5h position. Will it then become a 5 bar or 6 bar linkage?

This is the exact kinda work I'd love to get into

Blocking in Your Packaging is the way to go, form follows function..!

Hi from 3D artist/ designer, appreciate it every minute of this video, very good approach to the design process and file management

I've been a CAD guy for nearly 30 years and I couldn't agree more with organization being the #1 tool. I use Autodesk Inventor Pro. I've taught classes before and organization is always overlooked. Top down is very effective and I use it all the time. I use bottom up a lot too. Just depends on the project. When I learned how to use reference geometry and parameters it changed the way I design and made me a lot more efficient. Love the explanations and the mid engine project :) Can't wait to see more 🤘

i know theres no body yet, but im getting rear engine truck vibes, like a 80s C10 on a C8 Corvette chassis, or maybe im seeing what i want to build.i have no CAD or engineering experience, im just a dreamer with a bunch of ideas.

Glad to see an update on this project! What's been your motivation to use sheet metal VS tube to provide the primary structure of the chassis?

Awesome! Keep going and can't wait to see more.

I like how chill you are compared to how many minds are blown away by what you showed us!

What an amazing explanation! Thank you!!

Is the flow valve throttling associated with the throttle position?

Any updates on the build

Whats the measurement from the back of the block to the center of the output flange?

Explaining why you’re assembling the engine and transmission without a clutch and flywheel, anybody asking that question never built nothing, else they would know they have to take it apart and put it back together many times.

Check out GT40 replica builds, many use the same principal but not with the 01X. The better gearbox to use is the 01E with code FRF or DQS, this three letter code is found on the underside at the lowest point of the diff cover. The DQS and FRF were both used on front wheel drive cars that had a 2.5 turbo diesel engine, a high torque low revving engine. when that gearbox is mated to a powerful enough engine you have a vehicle that has a first gear that makes trips to the shops easy and a sixth gear that will take you beyond 200mph. The big difference with the 01e is that it has a cast iron center which houses the lower gears, the output shafts are in very much the same if not identical position. The 01E comes four wheel drive and two wheel drive, the four wheel drive is the version that was used on the original Audi Quattro, the two wheel drive is exactly the same except for the lack of a center diff and rear output. Still available from Europe, eBay.
