we had no oportunity to save the Concorde, saving the Vulcan is a must. My 3 year old just spent 10minutes sat on my lap watching YouTube videos of the Vulcan flying, ignoring the kiddies programs on the telly and his friends who were playing with his toys. How could i not pledge!!!

Thanks to everybody who has taken the time to answer. A voltmeter is now my informed choice of gauge and i will update my other electrical related thread with that. Thanks again

Thanks for confirming my thoughts Bill. Deffo with the voltmeter i think.

Thanks for the quick responses, i was just going to call it a night but just had a thought. An ammeter would also have to be fed with high current capable cable and also would have to be rated to handle more than the stated output of the alternator. Not sure i fancy running that gauge of...

Assuming that my understanding of the function of both of these gauges is correct... Ammeter will show current usage, i.e. with A/C and headlights on, current draw will increase resulting in a higher drain on the alternator and resulting in engine out put shifting from turning the wheels to...

I am getting close to sorting the electrics and i am starting this thread to double check my thoughts and improve my understanding of this subject. Firstly some details on some of my proposed electrical choices to help those that wish to comment understand where I am coming from. The car...

Please forgive me but this subject is new to me and i need to understand it so i plumb mine in the best/most suitable way. There apears to be 2 camps, PCV and non-PCV non-pcv, from the pictures it looks like you pipe from both valve covers to a catch/puke tank. This then vent to atmosphere...

It's probably been mentioned before but to make it all a little more interesting offer more incentives. The gold medal thing would n't help, difference between matchplay and stroke play, its still Golf.... How about points for more things, like NASCAR (i think anyway, wrong side of the pond...

I am also building around the Davies Craig Unit. My plate has 3/4 BSP female threads (Taps of EBAY for less than 10quid) and so purchased s/s 3/4 BSP male/male coupler from a plumbers merchant and will use washing machine hose for mock up as these hoses are only rated to around 85deg and then...

i thought about doing that but had no pump. Anyway i made an ally plate with 3/4 plumbing fixtures. Check out my build thread or pop a request on here for photos. I have spare stock ally i used so could manufacture another, getting quite good on my milling machine now...the more i do the...

An electric water pump by any chance and you want to use the old pump as a means of getting water in the engine?

lhc Some live webcams to keep an eye on the nerds so they don't open up a portal to a demonic realm and we have to send in all the old WWE wrestlers!!!!!!!

Has the Large Hadron Collider destroyed the world yet? funny in a nerd way, specially as they only sent a single beam all the way round today. What everyone is 'worried' about is when they collide 2 beams in opposite directions....

Dell are definatley the way to go, been buying them for years and recommending them for the same time. Could not agree more with the RAM comments but i would add don't worry about buying all the ram up front, 3rd party sources rather tham OEM work out cheaper usually (upgraded my dell desktop...

The thing that gets me is that the data is on removeable devices in the first place... putting data on a memory stick!!!! asking for trouble. even laptops are moveable, nature of the beast. You have important info, stored in datacentres, i would hope, leave it there, its what networks are...

The rally design kit just arrived, first look seems promising. just have to cut arms down to fit the front and the rear looks the same. Probably easiest to fabricate drop links than find ones of the right length.
