Default CAD model of a lycoming engine???

Anyone know where I can find a CAD model of a Lycoming engine?
I'm not looking for a detailed model, just something that has the general shape and the correct dimensions.

Not exactly what you are looking for, but Mickey's got a great 360* view of his on his website.

Default you could "scan" one

I have been playing about with www.my3dscanner.com and come up with this:





It's a 3D point cloud generated entirely from photographs. I guess you could do the whole engine.

Looks like it's sitting on the ocean floor next to the Titanic...
