Hope this pic comes up- I'm changing comp's as I've toasted another laptop. Also didn't know I'd missed so many Q's.

Josh- didn't know you were so close- I'd drive that far just to ride in it to see how susp feels. The rates seem to be pushing the threshold for street. Is this true or are they compliant?

If pic doesn't show, I'll try again later- the CD & Dialectic grease is no longer part of it. Faster to email install instructions and most dont use the tube of grease, LOL. And I cover the bolt in the alternator to starter cable differently now

Anyone can pm for email addy or #- sev things to mention, etc. Hoping for new comp by next wk.

And if it's not WAY too late, I would consider some sort of goup buy, but I do a kit or 2 every month or so... I'd be glad to step it up and knock a bunch out. I have the time right now if weather cooperates. We're not used to sub 20' in the south...LOL!

Thanks!

Also noticed- I no longer use the coiled plaastic piece w/cable ties to cover supp cable joint. I have a new red rubber cove for that... I know I backed stuff up better when comp crashed so will find more current pic! But this does show the idea...

Not sure what's fair on GB price- never done one (20 people knocks down to $275?). With $5 of that, from ea individual sale (assuming full or close to full kit, going to Rennlist in Dan's name?). The fuses are the price bitch! Dan had ways to get them free, but they cost me over $25/ea now by time I'm done w/them and there are 2 per kit. Been selling complete kits for $300- that includes SH to cont US. Dan sold them for $349 back in late 2005. Some people don't want the fused supplemental [+] either, but some do. That knocks off $55 or so ;-)

Here is what a normal complete kit includes:

One 1awg Main [+] Battery to Starter (EF)
One 4awg Main [+] Alternator to Starter (EF/F)
One 1awg (2-pc) Main [-] Battery Ground (EF on longer cable)
One 4awg Supplemental Ground (EF)
One 4awg Supplemental [+] Battery To Fusebox (EF/F)
Military Spec Clamps, Misc Hardware, Covers, Etc
All Lugs Heat-Shrunk (Adhesive-Lined)

EF = Cable Covered W/ExFlex
F = Fuse


Currently looking for new comp- no internet on phone- I'll def check in on this thead at least once a day for next few days and try to keep people current on Q's, etc. New comp will make it all much easier!

Hey Robby - come on over. Where are you located these days anyway? We are having a big gathering on March 8th - you should come to that for sure!

Spring rate is high but the car feels like it is on rails Just needs some boost now.

Glad to see you are still making these kits Robby.

I am still using pieces of Iceshark's original battery cable kit on my car even with the LS1 swap. Still have all the negative cables. Also still using the supplemental ground, now relocated between the frame rail and passenger side cylinder head . Headlight cables are still going strong also! Been about 10 years since i bought them.

Hi Robby,
I've PM'ed you what I need digitally, but it may be easier to call me at 646 296 4356 since your having challenges with your computer.
Thanks
Frank

Hi Robby,

What sort of cost would I be looking at for a relocation kit to the rear of the car?
Is it something that's universal for a right hand drive car? Battery in my car is on the left near the interior fan assembly.

Thanks.
