(...) It's looking good, Bram! Unfortunately, to be exactly accurate, all you can do is to inline and chop away. Depending on how sharp the angle is, you can try the 1-4cyls.dat and 1-4cyls2.dat primitives, to see how they fit. But they won't be (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jun-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
