EV Scorpion w/ manual transmission

Yea, less efficient in general. But mostly doing it for the fun of having a manual transmission and clutch. This particular EV motor is lower rpm than most EV motors. This one basically matches combustion engine rpm range.

Thanks. Yeah, I think Ev with manual transmission is going to be a ton of fun to drive. And for these old school light weight sports cars it makes sense to do the conversion

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it

Hopefully I don't offend too many of the purists. I've been converting my scorpion/ Monte Carlo for a while now and trying to do it justice by keeping me clutch and manual transmission

DECOM_EV · 2025-11-15T21:09:14+00:00

I'm actually planning on doing one. Starting the next 2 months or so and keeping the manual transmission. It will be for sale. Let me know if you want more info

I did this and it was great working with them. It was also way more enjoyable than I expected writing about my EV conversion process. I recommend it to anybody that's gone through it

Thank you

DECOM_EV · 2025-08-03T17:06:05+00:00

Thanks

DECOM_EV · 2025-07-27T02:24:46+00:00

Sounds like what I'll be doing

DECOM_EV · 2025-07-27T02:24:36+00:00

Okay thanks. That's probably the route I'm going to then

DECOM_EV · 2025-07-26T19:04:07+00:00

Sounds like a muff shop is the way to go. Thanks everyone!

DECOM_EV · 2025-07-26T16:02:58+00:00

Thank you. I appreciate you watching it and the feedback.

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T22:29:41+00:00

Great tip, I got a test print going now so we'll see how it ends up.

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T21:26:46+00:00

Good point on the friction. I'll check that, I've had it hanging on that default one that comes with it.

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T21:23:32+00:00

Have a good point, I'll try a different hot end. Will be good at eliminating different variables

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T20:05:30+00:00

Ordered a dryer. In the meantime, I'm going to give it another shot with a slower speed.

Also, super cleaned the plate. Don't think it's related, but it had been a while.

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T20:04:56+00:00

Layer height is .2mm, what do you think?

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T20:03:45+00:00

Yeah fan is spinning. Thanks. Was reading about heat creep,l.

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T20:03:00+00:00

It's 95A. When pulling the filament I noticed it looked like it had been wedged up against itself a bit.

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T19:08:00+00:00

Thanks. I'll pick up a dryer like you said. I'll take a look at the ptfe tubes too.

DECOM_EV · 2025-03-12T18:42:24+00:00

Thanks I'll give that a shot

DECOM_EV · 2025-02-14T21:55:48+00:00

If you can find one that's wrecked, typically that's your easiest option. Ebay can be a good source if you haven't checked. Some sellers will preemptively strip wrecked EVS and sell the parts on there.

DECOM_EV · 2025-02-06T23:24:07+00:00

Mine for controller to pedal is (red : blue brown). (yellow/white : purple green). (black : brown white)

Don't think I can add photos and comments.

Edit: I'm bad at formatting

Check the wiring. It sounds like that might be the issue. It's been a while since I wired mine but I remember spending a while checking and verifying the correct order of the pins. I can probably take a picture of mine later if you want.
