But make sure you bring any old oil you have. Mix some of it with water if you need to make more.

Off the subject, but you need a latching relay

Ya but what specific type of latching relay? Needs to be a latching relay that uses a single momentary pulse to both latch and unlatch... That's the tricky part.... I think I might have found something a bit overkill to work...

Guys I went on a shopping spree in the past day. I ordered a TS MP-8 which should be here Thursday....if not then...by Friday for sure. I wanted to try to get it hooked up before the Dyno Day in Ft. Worth.

And the black headlights.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-05...QQcmdZViewItem

and also a smoke LED 3rd brake light.

Still waiting on my CURT Gooseneck hitch plate to arrive too.... That one is kinda slow.

The lights probably won't be here till next week sometime.

I am also studying turbos. Not sure if im ready to join the twins club yet...so im considering this....>>> http://www.atsdiesel.com/ATSWebsite/...e/TurboA3K.asp

and a CR Manifold....>>> http://www.atsdiesel.com/ATSWebsite/...ExManifold.asp

Yeah it's past time to start "seriously" thinking about it. I have the money saved.....well most of it anyway. I am just trying to save a little more for a cushion before I spend it all. My stocker is still holding/shifting as well as it ever has, for now. It's hard to let go of that much money when mine isn't broke........so im trying to help it out a little...

Overkill like mine with 4 relays and 2 diodes to take the momentary pulse to latched?

OK, I'm seriously considering coming this weekend, still not a 100% sure of making it though. Mike, the parts you mailed I still haven't seen, I don't know whether the mail lost them or my roommate did, I'll try to see if my roommate did before the weekend, otherwise it might not be a bad idea to have some extra parts on hand if I make it.

You should've gotten that SS hardware weeks ago - check your room & mate!

It went USPS Priority, so I don't have tracking info for it...

Anybody know if the ISSPRO FP gauge can be mounted outside? If so, what have you seen done to seal it from the weather?
I want to move it outside to free up a spot in my pod for a boost gauge.
