I'm relatively new to the 3D printing world, and was searching around for cool things to print. Found a 427 engine block file. Came out pretty cool. I was surprised by the detail. Any other 3d guys out there ?

I saw those when browsing the web awhile back. I looked at them a couple of times and said what the @#$ and bought 2 of them. I gotta admit they are neat very good detail. They are a close copy of the very early FE and a late aftermarket block. And yes good detail.

Very cool! Now, onto heads, intake and more!

wow, that looks very nice, I just recently bought a 3D printer myself, a few weeks ago. Been testing it out printing some functional parts (just prototyping at this stage, learning the ropes ) using Carbon Fiber nylon mix. Parts are coming out pretty good, way better than I thought they would.
What printer and filament did you use?

Im using an Ender 3 pro, this filament was just some PLA i bought. I haven't tried ABS, or any other types of filament yet. I am also learning Fusion 360 to make some of my own stuff. Definitely a learning curve. Lots of great tutorials on you tube. What printer are you using ?

I bought an ender 3 V2, Not as fancy as the pro. By the time I was finished buying all the extras to go with it to print the carbon fiber nylon, Hardened nozzles, filament dryer and a roll of the Filament, I had spent about $500 . Pretty impressed with it so far, I haven't really even tuned it yet and it just works. There is room for improvement, but for now, just prototyping and getting used to it.
