Welcome to the IHoP

I've been thinking a lot lately about adding go-fast parts to the Roadmaster. But my mileage is bad enough as it is.....really can't afford to kill the mpg.

Had some issues on the V8's and the liners wearing out. Offered and extended warranty to a 100k to cover it. Not sure if there are any skeleton's left. The chassis is nice and even reasonable with only the I6 in it.

Oh and fuck T-Mobile. Instead of the W's contract being up in February, it somehow got changed to fricking August. Now I'm going to be stuck paying more money for their damn screwup.

By the way, my friend uses page plus and says that they use verizon's 3g network. $30/month gets 1200 min 3000 texts and 100mb data. I think he said they are about to increase it to 250mb for no additional cost.

How do you find these places. Wife just came in and said she wants a smart phone. She won't use jack for data/min/text so signing up with the big 3 would be teh dumb.

Boost might be a good option if the Sprint service is good in your area. Their 3g is slow but usable, and 50 a month unlimited everything isn't too bad.

Finally extracted the wiring diagram for my sled. Slightly confusing being it is an 07 race sled, with an 07 consumer engine & a frankensteined harness. Not 100% sure what I have is right, from a color perspective but at least I know what goes where.

Tail light and brake light are currently AC. Since I only have one "bulb" I was going to build a voltage divider on put it on the tail light section and let the brakes hit full voltage. However, I had a thought....let me know if I am nuts.

Run the AC to the tail light. It's an LED so it'll just be like a half wave rectifier and automatically be my voltage divider. Then pull a DC lead off the rectifier that powers my gauges and send it to the brake switch and out to the brake light.

*alternatively. Any idea if a Bosch automotive relay will fire on 12vac instead of DC? Figure it depends on the frequency and voltage more than the AC/DC, but it's my other alternative. Rewire nothing and use a relay on the brake side to apply the DC.

Would be easier to troubleshoot/determine if I could fire it up. I want the suspension in first though in case the engine races and she hops up in gear as that would be disastrous how she sits now.
