Congrats mate, cant wait to see some vids

Thats just a stunning colour mate, love it!!

Hi ho, hi ho, its off to race we go….

Sorry mate, looks like the Facebook thing isnt permanent, when i  gte a spare minute I will change the name of the thread.

Hi mate, welcome tot he forum, throw up a thread on the SS when you get a chance so we can follow along 

Wow, that’s come up great mate, love it.

+1 for a lick of paint

Have designed quite a bit of stuff back in my defence dept days for ocean use with sacrificial anodes, trust me ask PWR they are the experts, there is much more to it than just bolting on some zinc.  Its a cooling system in a car, not the hull of a bloody fishing boat.  The coolant itself is a conductor, and inside the engine it comes in contact w…[Read more]

I would be speaking to PWR about the right way to set it up as well.

Nice, looking forward to seeing some vids

G’day mate, nice to have you aboard!!

Yep as a fully qualified radio electronics tradesman I can tell you earth loops are something most people don’t understand.  Actually earthing in general is not well understood. Isolating is often worse than earthing.

When it wasn’t there the bay looked a little lop sided with the ABS etc on the left, so it just balanced it up.  Works perfectly too, so best of both worlds I guess.  Thanks boys for the br…[Read more]

Yep agree with that, if the electrical circuit isn’t right will kill an expensive bit of kit in weeks needlessly.

Yea 2 tanks seems like overkill to me.  Yep Cav it’s the radiator overflow.

Me too, a guy back in the SC days had problems with them on his beautiful senator.
