Default Engine ****.

Not sure if this is an Enzo but it's pretty cool to watch...not so much to listen too.

pretty cool. That is how the SSC (Shelby super car) block is made. Solid aluminum block.

There's a company here in Australia that does all sorts of things. From what I understand, they'll do a block for approx. $8500. Pretty nice stuff.

So, why are they using a 5-axis machine to cut 2.5 axes?
