| Re: A few questions re RF Build...SVA... Hi Paul,
1)To get the toggle switches through the SVA on my R.F., i made a plate to sit on the dash with 6mm bar bent into semi-circles on it so the testers sphere could not touch the dimmer switch or the end two toggles. the remainder of the switches are in the exclurion zone around the steering wheel.
2) The serpentine belt set up that is on the Ford Explorers has the toothed ring. This is what was fitted to mine on the crate SVO engine i fitted. I used it with the Omex injection system.
3) I'm using the Smiths electronic speedo and the Audi sensor( its a reed switch) with no problems.The Wiring has to be adapted on the speedo short loom to get the electronic speedo working. One of the cut off wires needs to be a power feed( connect red and green together i think!!!)
4)The steering rack is from a cortina, but I told and DVLA & mr SVA tester that the rack comes as part of the kit, and was brand new so there were no issues with it.
5)Couldnt get a wiring diagram out of the old rf company so had to spend many a happy evening tracing wires through looms as i was using the Omex ECU
Hope this helps, Jerry
