Both my extra solenoids and nozzles for my 4 stage water setup came today The tracking number on my relays shows them as coming tomorrow...all i gotta do now is get a box hull for the control unit from radio shack, along with a pack of cable wrap.

I am STILL doing over my plans for the on-the-fly mixing, so I will get the drawings to you SOMETIME Bob... I just cant decide exactly which method i wanna try first...ive got a couple of ideas, just dont know which one will work better.

Hey, does anyone know of a place that sells good CB linear boosters?

Gauge Setup

Just got finished with the list of gauges im going to try to have in BEFORE christmas and the TT motor...wanted you guy's input on anything I might have overlooked...
They will be electronic SPA combo gauges on all of them

Quad A-Pillar Mount
Pyrometer/Pyrometer (Left and Right side exhaust manifolds)
Pyrometer/Boost (Downpipe pyro)
Coolant Temp/Transmission Temp
Fuel Pressure/Fuel Temp

Hook Replacement Mount (triple gauge mount that screws in place of pointless hook in cab)
Oil Temp/Oil Pressure
Differential Temp/Differential Temp (front and rear)
Cylinder Head Temp/Cylinder Head Temp (right and left)

Single Steering Column Mount
Intake Air Temp/CO2 Pressure

Double Instrument Panel Mount
Water Tank Level/Methanol Tank Level
Propane System Pressure/Nitrous System Pressure

The only one that is going to be a pain is the sending units for the water and methanol tank level gauges. I will probably have to have a set of sending units custom calibrated for the 8 gallon tanks.

Im sure this may seem excessive, however, I have at least a halfway legitimate reason for everything on there. The nitrous pressure gauges, ect. are for my personal pleasure of knowing how much i have left. Most everything else is functional. Besides, its gotta look cool

Being a single alternator, am i going to have a power issue with all of them hooked up? I dont figure they draw much, but being the number of them there are i dont know if it will cause an issue or not. I will have alot of other stuff hooked up, including a CB, a radar detector, a cell phone charger, a power inverter for my laptop, satellite radio, brake controller, and countless control boxes, switch boxes, and solenoids for the various injection systems.

just buy a pro-street fuel cell for ur tank. it has its own fuel level guage in it. and it will hold more water and look cooler than a "tank"


i doubt u will have electrical problems as long as u run a separate service in the cab.
