I know last year that quite a few Factory Five Cobra guys were testing out an electric power steering unit.
Here is one I haven't seen

Here is the one that has been getting used from Fast...
All those gauges have the same power source. The boost gauge is either unplugged or does not have a reference signal. The sensor is on the driver side fender near the firewall. I would make sure it is plugged in and has the hose attached at both ends. On the oil pressure I would just make sure...
I thought the cool things about VATN turbos was the fact that you could go without a wastegate. They are able to hold whatever boost you want. Corky Bell loves these things from reading his book.
If you need one I have both a ford and a BMW idle valve just sitting in my basement from when I was messing with the megasquirt. Pay the shipping and they are yours.
Anyone know what kind of signal the VSS in the dash puts out? I know it is 4ppr but is it a sine wave? Seems like a pretty convenient signal to use since the speedo cable turns at a little more then 1000 revolutions per mile.
The advance adapters bellhousing uses an external slave. I have heard about a lot of problems using a hydraulic throwout bearing.
You got the parts I sent you right?
Alright ladies I was finally able to get everything together.
The elusive pilot bushing which was the final piece of the puzzle. On the left is the piece that advance adapters sells and on the right is my piece cut down to the right length.
That finally lead to putting the whole thing...
The novak adapter uses an SBC bellhousing and works with the SBC. It absolutely can be bought from Novak. The Advance adapters bellhousing can also be used with both the gen 3 and SBC. The only difference between the bellhousing to block is the top bolts. I think you need to do a little more...
The Novak adapter is just the sbc bellhousing bolt pattern and the r154 trans bolt pattern. Look around a little bit because both are extremely easy to find. The adapter is around 2" thick but that is just a few measurements. Do a little work for yourself man.
The advance adapter bushing is...
Bushings are made of oil impregnated sintered bronze or it is sometimes called oilite. The battle between bearings and bushings seems to still be going on. I have found numerous threads arguing each side.
For down and dirty bushings I have been buying the advance adapters bushing for the R150 to go on the LSx engine. It is way too long and I didn't cut down the first one, I cut down the second one but didn't check the ID of the recessed portion, and so I have 2 more coming to me that I will cut...
I am not going to sweat it at this point. If someone can track down the proper bearing I will try it but I get more material for a bushing next week and this time I am going to get it right.
The last bushing would have worked if I had double checked the ID. It was one of those moments where...
.471" ID x 1.09" OD and for the bushing I was going to make it .75" deep.
In metric 12mm ID x 27.686mm OD x 19mm deep.
Get me a bearing and I will see if it works.
If I could find one possibly. In the whole bearing vs bushing debate it seems that they are equally weighted.
I haven't been able to find a .471" x 1.09" bearing anywhere. I haven't had the chance to chase down a bearing supplier yet. Maybe I will try that now.
