    GTD40 chassis # help please

    The link has the headlights, brake and indicators. I tried some other brake and indicator LEDs but they were by no means bright enough. The ones in the link are a massive improvement. It gives me a lot more confidence when it starts to get dark.

    GTD40 chassis # help please

    Hi Ken, I suspect that the polarity on the LEDs may have been wrong. It doesn't matter with incandescent bulbs but you will not get anything with LEDs. Some people have needed an additional resistor for the flashers, but I didn't find that. The headlights were the biggest improvement. Here is a...

    GTD40 chassis # help please

    The other big improvement in drive-ability I have made is switching to LED lights.

    GTD40 chassis # help please

    I couldn't agree more with Bud regarding the crossfire mirrors. Bud was extremely helpful to me when I was looking into mirrors. I haven't bothered with the wiring to be honest, but they made a huge difference to my car. Before, having no mirrors, it was butt clenching driving along freeways...

    Weber ida fire extinguisher nozzle positions

    Frank, I am wondering if it would depend on the extinguishant used. I have a fire suppression system using DuPont FE-36. It is a gas and doesn't leave any residual liquid or foam. I did have the case to use it once! It was a most surreal experience. It was before I had the webers setup...

    2x2 and the GrapVine

    Looking forward to seeing the "hateful 8" around the neighborhood! Glad that the 2x2 was not any worse. I know what you mean about the attention these cars get. My friend described it like being in a goldfish bowl!

    Fire supression

    I had a Safecraft system installed. It has one outlet in to the cabin and two into the engine bay. I would seriously recommend a fire suppression system. Before i had the webers gone through I had them spit back on starting and ignite. The fire suppression system took care of it without any...

    Unimaginably brutal, people in Iran

    It amazes me how people can hurt and kill dogs. Dogs are so human centered in their whole being. They would do anything for us. They are always so glad to see us. It takes an extremely heartless person do do anything horrible to dogs. I really would like karma to bite these people really hard...

    Unimaginably brutal, people in Iran

    Hi Al, It is not about political correctness! I think that is an underlying indication that you expect this behavior to be representative of Iranian people. I know it is not explicitly stated in your post, and I hope that is not your view of the Iranian people (my experience has been far from...

    Arabs

    Hi Al, It maybe that your title is quite inflammatory. I haven't actual opened the link, the title of it is repulsive. There are good and bad people in every country. I choose to only make a determination where people fit on that spectrum based on what I witness, and try strongly to avoid...

    Webers

    I worked with Jim himself and also found him very helpful. He was very insistent on certain things to make sure everything ran right (timing and fuel pressure), He was also keen to make sure you called if there was any issues. The Inglese company that now does the EFI setup is different from Jim...
