    Advice for the next step.

    Sorry about your troubles, but that is on you. They run just fine. And thanks for the reminder, I am going to stick my head in your build thread now. :)

    Any AR-10 owners here? I'm looking for one, Stuck between Armalite and DPMS...help

    There are more useful intermediate cartridges. The longe range rounds (170ish OTM) are effective out at 500-700 meters no doubt, but are you really going to be shooting people there? I was just wondering about his thought process on it.

    Auto trans issues, need some help :)

    It might be. Number 1 off and number 2 on will have the same symptom.

    Front Windshield Wipers not Working Properly

    I would stick my Fluke in the column first to make sure the switch is working. Check the EWD online, it has the electrical component locator. I don't feel like looking it up.

    I think those were under rated to keep them under the Corvette. They were pretty solid around 280 rwhp and then later 300 (give or take) with the revisions. They made the same as the Corvette on a dynojet, but rated lower by GM. Most people don't look at dyno numbers, just what is in Motor...

    Actually, you have extensive mods by most reckoning. Head porting is the most serious thing. A bigger turbo to many is a smaller mod, as it is a bolt on. Then again, a GT42 is one heck of a bolt on, so I don't know if "bolt on" is still minor. Speaking of GM giving fake numbers....the first LS6...

    Front Windshield Wipers not Working Properly

    The wiper relay has a timer in it for the delay. I wouldn't put it on the switch right away.

    I don't see second either. It is hard to tell with your video.

    Auto trans issues, need some help :)

    I didn't watch all of your video (you took too long). At 3:11 in you are going 70 mph in direct, and you took off in direct. Solenoid number number being off and number 2 on gives you direct. Maybe number 1 is not plugged in. Maybe your harness is bad inside or outside, leading to one staying...

    Can't get the Supra to start.

    Yes, but it isn't going to help you right now. Check to see if power is getting to the PCM. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=56

    WHERE to buy flux for soldering wire

    Don't buy the crimps at Autozone, Checker, or even Napa. The Toyota procedure is to crimp, then fill it with solder. I think I have mentioned it before.

    No, they were the kings of BS on the HP scales. Only the recent LSX family has gone the other direction, and that under rating the F-body so it was lower than the Corvette.

    But not 340 lb/ft of torque.

    Same Sensors??

    They go with the turbo automatic models. Note the screen around the blades. It is black plastic so you don't stick your fingers in it. It depends on the needs. Same thing that cools the radiator. The fan driven by the clutch with the assitance of the electrics with high water...

    Well, no. An auto with lower "boost" will likely be around 170 rwhp (K&N dynojet test was 174 with a 5 speed). A little more boost from the wastegate actuator can make it climb to 190 or even 200 rwhp. Torque will also be less than rated flywheel, not 100 lbs over.

    Looking to rewire charging system and the fuse box, any setups available for ideas?

    The two wires that go from the alternator into the harness. They might be corroded. It looks like one, but it is two. It is a small diameter wire to give some flexibility.

    WHERE to buy flux for soldering wire

    It wasn't a part of the solder? Radio Shack.
