Default Need pics, Switches, Bottle mounts, systems...

Post up pics of your switches, bottle mounts, and systems so we can get a sticky posted for newbs and those looking to redo their setup.

Dual Stage Dry setup:



and soon to be switch center:

Great idea Charlie. How did you make your pics clickable thumbnails?

Wet/Dry combo:



Modified stock NOS bracket for hump:



Moroso 5 switch panel (unmodified), it has since been repainted and adjusted to eliminate the gap:



Vent gauge:



and in semi flat black metal:



Alot of people like to know where the radio delete and vent gauge ABS comes from. Here's the link, the ABS comes in 3 thickness', http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=265-940 .

i went threw the nitrous section (9 pages btw) and picked out the previous links that were asking the same thing, this will REALLY clean up the forum and give the rest of us a place to check each other's set ups!!

I use imagethrust.com, you upload the pics, then copy the links they give you. FREE online hosting and linkable. Simply insert the link and done. I like your setup as well.

reject, I'll go thru those and others, and click over to them. Retitle it like the switches, so when someone goes to search "install pics" it'll pop up, the same as if you searched for switches or whatever. As of now, if you search for wiring, or FPSS you should get a hit on that sticky, as you would if you searched WS, or Transbrake etc..

reject, your helping out a lot.

Here are my bottle mounting brackets, simple and effective, cost $5, took about 30min.




The wiring in the well is for the Dynotune Bottle Warmer. Need to clean all the wiring up one day, I just looked under the hood...wow, no pictures until I clean that pig hole up. I still have the noids laying loose on top of the air intake bellows

Just grabbed a piece of Aluminum "L" brakcet from Home Depot. measured the width, added on for the bolt hole into the body, and some more for the bending into an L down (for the front mount) then bolted it down to the antenna mount, opposite bend for the rear mount, bent it up and used the marker light nut or whatever that is. Oh yeah, once mounted just drilled out the holes for the bottle brackets.
*note: when going to make the bend either up/down, I cut out a piece so that it folds over itself, look close at the corner where they are bent you'll see it.*

kind of like that, cutting out the V so when you bend it, it folds nicely into itself w/ no unsighly overhang.

the dots are there for white spacing...

quick question, i have a wet cell battery in that spot, with out a box...yes i know fumes and such things like that, but my question was do you think the battery would damage the bottle, like physically (paint) and other wise as well? i want to mount the bottle above the battery to add more weight to the back

reject, I cant advise you about mounting it over the battery thats not sealed in a box vented to the outside, but I am sure it would fit, and wouldnt cause any issues at all.

Diablo, your still running an LS1 intake or that an LS6 SLP model?

A couple of my students made this for me, we were talking about it, and this is what they came up with from the measurements I gave them. It should mount up where the traction control and lighter are currently mounted. Here's how the switches will be laid out: Master Arming-Bottle Warmer-Line Lock-Electric Cut Out-Bottle Opener-Purge
I haven't added the 3 momentary switches for the last three listed, and obviously, I'm still waiting on parts to install the nitrous kit.

Its all good man. Shoots, I didn't swap mine out for a while, got a deal on it from the sale section here, had the MAP mount busted in, nothing a little plastic weld hasn't help seal up. You should be able to find an LS6 Intake cheap now. I know once I get the Vic Jr setup up and running I might donate my intake...I'd feel bad selling it.

Carl.. are you not wanting to use a different master switch? I was going to use similar rockers for mine, but have optioned to do the Aircraft style covered switch for Master, then either led pole switches, or lit-up rockers. Still thinking on the style. Is yours made out of Aluminum? looks to be CNC'd or such.
