Thread: 351W EFI into Classic Rangie

Nice work as usual Pete, looks really professional

Didn't get much done this weekend. Plus I feel like **** due to bad news about work.
Did manage to do the trans lines which are 3/8" stainless and the teflon braided stuff aswell. I've run the lines back before coming forward so there's no lines running above the spinning driveshaft..

Great build ive been watching with envy well done mate
A small bit of advice separate those lines or they will rub together and in the long term wear a hole , If they are hard against your chassis the same will happen

Cheers Rangieman,
Yeah those cable ties aren't permanent. Going use some little ally block separators and some metal straps with rubber blocks that I flogged off a DF LTD I'm wrecking.

I've been thinking about how to control the thermofan on the trans cooler and, at the same time knowing I wanted some extra gauges to keep an eye on things decided to go with a couple of these... Auto Meter
They're a bit over $200ea but they can do much more than ordinary gauges which will cost well over $100ea but can't do anything else.
I got a trans temp gauge and an Oil pressure gauge.
So I'll be able to control the fan and it will also change colour and flash the change in colour to warn of exceeded limits, they have memory recall and a 0-5v data logger output.
I looked at some other similar gauges and whilst some were cheaper they didn't have all of the features including, most importantly the output driver.

Have you spoken with Autron in Melbourne? Local and very innovative instrument company, with good prices. Link below provides some initial info.

Just had a look, Interesting. Reminds me of tech, where I designed an LCD analog face gauge.
I don't like the LCD gauges particularly though.

Here's what I got...
