Cylinder head mounting template

Hello,

Wasn't sure if anyone knew where I could download a printable template of the accessory mounting positions on SBC cylinder heads.

I can make one out of cardboard, but I'd rather have one that was done in CAD or something that's 100% dead on.

I had a similar issue once so I went out and bought the harbor freight set of transfer punches and then a transfer screw set also. They work great. I thought you engineers all had a magic drawer where you could pull out any precise tool you wanted- just like a magician's hat.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

I'm not a mechanical engineer, no magic tool box.

Thanks
