Beats the hell outta me....I know it WILL be one of the lightest DP cars (at this point), but by how much ? Ive got another 100+ I can pull legal long term, but thats HARD work and its having some items made I cant get done before Pomona. Steering col alone weighs over 30lbs for example....
Looks like noone has got a set whos in town I know , otherwise Id know next Mon or Tue when shes all back together. Ive just got to go buy some, but I dont know what summit has in stock, that was on todays list to check. (theyre about 10 min down the road) But on my other thread noone has suggested any so Ill just "wing it" and buy something thats overkill as usual.
The voltage for the electronics packages scare me, they like constant voltage. AND We are running COP so theres a hell of a lot more draw there than a single coil system. AND On top of that all electronic controls on the Injectors, ECU, Tranny, water pump, fans....just a lot of juice. And I DONT want it pulling from the alternator any more than it ihas to. So the only way I see is an extra batt. Im running enough of an underdrive on the Alt, it will be legal but not much more.
Hate to have an electronic hiccup because of low juice....then I kick my own *** for not doing it, or expecting it.
I NEED to make plans for it and be able and ready to do it at a minutes notice, but it wont go in until Im certain its needed, but I need to plan and arrange for it now. Ill know for sure in Dyno and track around the 23-30th
