Mechanical drawing, X & Y coordinates, etc
Hey all:
I'm looking to fabricate up some torque plates for an M8 @ 128" bore size. I have blanchard ground plates w unfinshed thru holes for diameters. I may have a local machine shop bore the holes for the cyl spigots, thru stud, dowel pin & tapped holes. I'm wondering if any of you fellow engine guys may have a drawing of the stock H-D stud hole locations, datums etc from the intended C/L of the bore? Even just X & Y coordinates would do, I have them for TC, evo & shovel but no M8. I can use layout fluids, transfer hole locations if needed but if i'm asking somebody to do it for me, i'd like to avoid any interpretation errors so intended locations would simplify... Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the intel but you might be misunderstanding my query. I'm familiar with the X, Y & Z axis movements. what im looking for would be the actual coordinates for the hole locations. Example: from C/L of bore the two pushrod side cyl stud thru holes would located @ X-2.500" & Z- 3.125". i hope that clears it up. Thanks!

Thays my plan B. Gaskets would suffice as well & if i still had milling machines w DRO's i'd just find my own coordinates, & do the work in-house. I still use the plates i made years ago. if i resort to Plan B, it just opens up opportunity for errors/interpretations that id rather avoid.
