The benefits of a CAD/CAM program. Wouldn't wanna be the guy to program it manually.haha...

first off casting is not easier, I work in a machine shop in a foundry been through both methods. Second castings have a much higher probability of internal defects, and third tools to produce castings are very expensive especially the complicated shapes involved in a crank case or engine block, and finally once you've proved out your machining programs it's very simple to setup another block and let the machine eat unnattended nothing like run time

why do they have to ...machine the entire engine ?...even though casting of the engine block is mostly followed in most places.. casting is much more easier and less time consuming and it saves cost too..!!!

watching these machines, i get the idea of how amazing engineering is. A dedecation to mathematical precission in combination with design and arts.isnt this true creating? Wether the artist nor the worker has his mind in those two realms, only the engineer has.

Skyline gtr is a great example

No. High performance car's engine block are made like this... even regular cars, part of it are made by a CNC machine like this.
