Default Not to show what is easily surmised....

(cluelessness), but what is the AC-22 contraption of which you speak? Regardless, I await your X-files and block party results with great anticipation. We can count on additional subjective musings to flesh out the cold analytical data right?

...BUTOFCOURSE, Mark! Wouldn't wanna let ya's down now would I??? 8-)

Heh, "X Files / block party". Always!

AC-22 is an accelerometer. Think GTech but not consumermarketing grade. Pretty trick, I definitely do not use it enough. I've calibrated it @ New England Dragway a few times in a few of my cars over the years, it's near spot-on. I use the HP data to measure net change rather than the raw number though.

Mine's black: <a href="http://www.seight.com/AC22.html">AC-22</a>

I'm hoping it still works! Pollack me cracked it open the other day to ensure I didn't leave batteries corroding in there (BTDT) and my massive superspideystrength friggin' pulled it apart more than it er should have. I'll try it out tonight - fingerz crossed!

Yes, do keep your Paul-to-Engrish dictionary handy. At all timez, really...

Default S8's and probably all A8L's.

The Block mounts on the stress bar and prevents the nose of the master cylinder from moving forward under heavy pedal pressure.

Default I count seven so far. Stay tuned...

Hopefully "Beav" will holler back sooner than later. emachine has downloadable software that absent a response from "Beav" I'll grab a hold of and plug in the dimansions from one of Randy's posts. I'm going to give "Beav" till this weekend and then have a go at it myself. I will then post an equally nebulous if only to test the limits of babblefish.
