1.2 Cylinder Blocks and Pistons

Cylinder block castings for the following models are usually available, as the club owns appropriate patterns.
Bare castings are sold on the basis that an approved machine shop does the machining under a separate
contract between the purchaser and the shop. Due to the risk of defects being found during machining the
Club does not wish to sell castings direct for machining by other shops. Regularly available, but confirm:

37MOT60 T37 Block T37-40

57MOT37 T57 Block T57

Normally blocks are supplied with standard bores (69mm), except Type 57 (72mm), but oversize can often
be arranged (e.g. T37 at 69.5 so that standard Volkswagen Polo Pistons (which are stocked) can be used)

Bugatti Steels
Apart from normal mild or medium carbon steels, Bugatti used widely on shafts, axles, and gears good quality
low carbon nickel chrome based hardening steels, often not case hardened. Such parts are usually stamped
with the maker's reference number.

C4/700 Tacho Belt 700mm G.P.

AD3 (Aubert & Duval)
Carbon 0.12% max.
Nickel 3-3.5%
Chrome 0.5 - 1%
Modern equivalent SAE 3310, En 36B Typical strength 120,000 p.s.i., 55
tons sq. in., 85kg mm_ Case when hardened, Diamond hardness 700,
Rockwell61C

NCAV (Aubert & Duval) as AD3 with rather more caron, approaching
MH2 (Marine) 140,000p.s.i. 65 tons sq in., 100kg mm2
CR-X (Holtzer)

897 (Aubert & Duval)

JC2 3% Ni. C - H steel

Case depths quoted on drawings are generally 0.8-1mm(.03-04 inches) before grinding. For valve caps do not
exceed 0.25-0.3mm (-.010 - 012in) preferably by cyanide hardening.

Lubrication Recommendations
Engine: Roller bearing types Castrol R40
Other Castrol GP50
Any "straight" 40
(Modern SAE 20-50 oils are less suitable for single-cam engines, in the opinion of some experienced owners)
Gearbox: EP 90
Rear Axle: EP140
Steering box: EP 140
Water pump: Heavy industrial grease, such as Mobil AA (not soft lithium-based chassis
grease).
