Paul and Bill,
the 13B dwgs. I uploaded were scanned from the pages of "Rotary
Engineering's" catalog. They were not in a CAD format. My scanner does not
have  .dxf format as a file export option. The choices are .JPG, .BMP.
.TIFF,
.PCX. If anyone knows how to get to .DXF post the procedure and I will
try.

Thats what I guessed Ed. Thanks. There used to be a program that converted
bit mapped images such as bmp's to Auto Cad dwg files but as I recall it was
quite expensive. Perhaps someone can search the net for a freebie.

Here is a DXF of the 13B,  The original came from the scanned images.  It
seems fairly accurate although I have the engine on a table and am
attempting to accurately measure the mountings, exhaust ports etc.  Will
re-post in about 3 weeks when I have completed the detailing.

regards

The DXf was too big by itself to up load so I zipped it.
