Random Thoughts - Part Deux [NO POLITICS]

[Lantanafrs2]

With oil price volatility I think there will be a greater push towards solar power and evs. A good conspiracy fantasy would be covid as a reason to gut oil production based economies.

Found it

I've seen the series.blue adventures switch panel. TBH it is a super basic piece that isn't hard to diy in the form its offered (not altantara wrapped.) It's too generic of an otem. I'm still into the oem+/factory racecar design elements. Things that scream generic or universal, the local autozone or basic diy are a no go. The optional sold trac box is nice but, other than the pedal dance always on feature it really doesn't appeal to me.



Long term I'm looking at fully configurable toggles. Aircups, exhaust cutout, fuel cut, methanol activation, intercooler sprayer and so on... more than 4-6 toggles.

Oh geez, that’s def full blown race switches. I, myself prefer not to have any switches. Prefer minimal as it can be is better, but that’s just me.

i've had an idea for a little while to attempt an overhead switch setup just forward of the dome light... i just need to measure the clearances within the headliner

All I’m asking for is 5/16” to 3/8” elbow barb & 5/16” to 1/2” elbow barb that can handle the temperature +250F... is it much to ask?

All the barb that fit temperature requirement only comes straight, while elbow barb that fit that size spec comes in temperature rating up to 160F...

Seriously, does anyone know a site that have it?

Assume brass fittings are OK(1650 deg F)?


Ebay has heaps, unless I am getting it wrong..

I suppose it could get that low in some states, but there is a "minimum" price in the US. The effective tax rate, which is $0.18 fed and the local rate.

I am all the way down to $3.50 a gallon for 91! It is a treat considering it can easily hit $6.
