    Fuel system is done

    Tarm, I'm all about overkill. Try upgrading the grounds for your batteries, that might net you a little more voltage. It's a simple trick the audio nuts do to get more voltage to their amps. I upgraded all the wires for my batteries when I installed my new 200A alternator. Sorry for taking...

    Fuel system is done

    If all you are going to run off that terminal strip is the two relays, 4ga is going to be overkill. You would be fine with 8ga wire. Be sure to fuse the wire from the battery to the terminal strip and then each wire coming from the terminal strip. Be carefull if that terminal strip will be in...

    Fuel system is done

    Yes, the finer stranded wire is normally a better quality wire and therefore is more true to the ga size chart plus it has more surface area. Normally the finer stranded wire is more expensive than just going to the next size lower. It is also hard to find good quality small gauge wire. Your...

    Fuel system is done

    Not that this pertains to this thread but the ultra fine statement is not needed. You could always go down in size if surface area of each strand is a concern. Instead of using 12ga, go to 10 and etc.. The only crowd that seems to be concerned with ultra fine strands and lots of them is the...

    Fuel system is done

    Yes, I would use a relay for each pump. You can use the factory harness to operate both relays though. Yes, I'm talking about the little cube relays. I say to use a relay for each pump because one pump might lock up and it could heat up the relay because it will start to pull more amps. If...

    Fuel system is done

    Yes, you need to fuse the power wire going to the relay. Relays are actually cheap, it is the fuel pump you are protecting with the fuses and those are expensive. I would use a relay for each pump. You can pick up the relays at Radio Shack and most likely any autoparts store. I normally get...

    Fuel system is done

    Use the factory wiring to activate new relays. If the AIH relay is not a continuous duty, do not use it. Get a couple new Bosch 30A relays.

    Starter solenoid questions

    I bought them off Ebay. I check for them from time to time to see if I can get a good deal. They normally sell for around $50. There is another brand on Ebay called Tyco or something like that and it sells for around $25.

    Starter solenoid questions

    I would check to make sure you have a good ground. What size of wire are you using for the power wire? If you are using 14ga, that may also be your problem. You want the least amount of resistance going to a fuel pump. I would recommend 10ga wire. Below is a picture of the Bosch 75A...

    Retro Solutions Digital HIDs ordered

    As stated above, it's either the relay or loose wiring. Sometimes you can get a relay with loose contacts in side or it's just the wire connections on the relay. You can get another realy cheap at most any auto parts store.

    Retro Solutions Digital HIDs ordered

    What are you talking about..? I have flashlights that would make the output of these HID's look like candles. Granted, they are custom.

    Need help finding stickers!!!!

    I could not find the exact post but you can Google "domed decals" and you will find many places that will make them. You may need to get a few people in on a group buy so the one off price is not so high.

    Need help finding stickers!!!!

    A typical sign shop will not be able to make these raised gel type letters. They will be able to make you flat letters that look just like them. If they tell you it will take them an hour to design each letter, run. I have been in the sign industry for almost 20 years and it would take maybe...

    Starting a new build log here:

    It is looking really good. You stated building out the doors 1.5in. Did you add 1.5in of MDF behind the panel or is that total with the baffles? How much MDF did you put behind the door panels? How flush do the outer baffles sit against the door panels?

    Fuel system question

    Tom S, Do you still have that tube style finned fuel cooler or did you decide to take it out? If you still have it, do you think it made a difference?

    Thanks! I took a little vacation from most of my hobbies and then decided I missed them too much.

    Cheap AMP Steps 799 shipped!

    He is willing to take $249 off each set if they are shipped to one address? I'm guessing the Ext cab version could ship UPS and that might cost you $80 at the most. Even if they had to go freight, you might be at $150 and that still saves you $100. You guys should get together and do a 3 set...
