Just purchased and received a Whipple [EDIT - supercharger]. Yes that unobtainium Whipple I have drooled over for a few years now, and no I'm not planning to TP my Slantback. Anyone have experience installing these and then turning up the IP to allow proper fuel delivery? [EDIT - Standard...

I want to run 17 inch rims and I prefer steel. That will improve tire options while allowing me to run a standard 16.5 inch runflat insert. I figure welding a 1/4 inch rod all around might be the ticket, but I wanted to see if anyone else had done it?

Looking to make a manual or "dumb" PCB for my HMMWV. Think I need 24 Volt, 100 amp, full duty relays. Am I correct? What brand would you guys use? What company would you buy from? Also, would you use diodes? If so, same questions... Am I correct? What brand would you guys use? What company...

1- remove arm from vehicle. 2- remove blade from arm. Save screw and bolt! 3- grind off rivets that hold the blade receiver to the arm. [EDIT 05/28/2020 - just cut the arm immediately proximal to the closest rivet. Just cut it off and forget about all the grinding and smoothing. The arm...

I need resistors and capacitors and 100amp relays and mosfets and such. Who are the players who sell these, and are there any site sponsors who sell this stuff? Where is Radio Shack now that I finally grew up and need them?

So, I need power for my 24V back-up camera, and I want it to turn on when vehicle is running and turn off when I stop the engine. Which wire is live during the drive? Is it safe to run a "Y" connector through that wire to a relay that will turn on and off when I kill the engine? My desire is...

My trailer and I live near the ocean. Rust is the norm. Left trailer brake handle won't turn to adjust. Right "passenger's side" handle is fine. I was WD-40'ing things and noticed the handle won't rotate to adjust on the left. Is this a common issue and what should I do? Gonna use a fabric...
