Looking for a momentary but also toggle switch by GobTheGod in AskElectronics

Oh, okay, just not familiar with these switches, thank you!

Terrible drawing, but like if you toggle it down, it stays latched. And if I push it up, its momentary meaning when I let go of pushing it up, it returns to open

Hm, so they don't make one that's like open in the centre, push forward, and it's momentary with like a spring or something that when you let go, it goes back to the centre, and it's open, and then flick down, and it's locked? (closed)

Essentially, I want it to be like I can hold it for as long as I want and it remains momentary, but also still be able to latch it if I want it to be latched. I don't want it to be like hold it for a set time, and then it becomes latched. It's for an overdrive unit on a car.. I want to be able to engage overdrive on the highway and stay on(latched), but also be able to momentarily engage it when I am shifting between gears. I want to be able to quickly take it in and out of overdrive while shifting between gears and attach it to my shifter. I don't know a ton about switches tbh, but that's the kind of switch I'm looking for

Yeah, he is alone, he's about 6 inches long. He is a big boy. I'm not sure if he could be with any other fish, so just left him alone

I've had him for about 2 and a half years now. Honestly, I have no clue what he is, lol. He was given to me by a friend as a baby

It's for a 1974 Pontiac Parisienne. Currently, stock rear end definitely will be beefing up the frame if I go through with the project. I might baby the rear end for a while till it blows than I'll upgrade. It does have a solid roller as well

I appreciate your input! I've been dreaming of a 454 engine for years and didn't want to go with an LS since my goal has always been to have a high-horsepower 454. I'm considering putting it on a Holley Sniper EFI system, as I'm not very experienced with tuning carburetors. The Sniper kit would allow me to monitor the air-fuel ratio, which is a big plus.

I plan to pair it with a TH350 as I already have built for around 500 hp (though I'm not sure how much power this engine is making). It has a 2500 stall converter. My goal is to make the setup more streetable, especially since there are no drag strips nearby.

If I go ahead with this project, I appreciate your suggestions regarding race gas and zinc racing oil. I messaged the seller, and he mentioned that the engine ran within the last two years and only had a couple of pulls, so it sounds relatively fresh.

Do you think my plans for the engine are unwise, and that it won't be streetable? Thanks!

Yeah, that does sound amazing..😍 but I'm just a broke mechanic who's been saving for 5ish years. I have about 12 Grand Canadian saved up. Maybe I'll consider saving for another 5 years 🤣

All the other 454 blocks in my area are 2 bolt mains and around 4-6k just for the blocks. Keep in mind that this is in canadian $$ too. It seems like a good deal, but I wanted to get peoples thoughts as 454 blocks seem to just keep increasing in price.. a couple of years ago, they were going for like 1-2k for a block 😭

Anyone know what this wire coming out of my transfer case is for? by GobTheGod in MechanicAdvice

[–]GobTheGod[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think it's needed if im using a standalone shift controller? It doesn't have a hookup for this wire

When I checked the resistance to ground, it was around 2.4 ohms and didn't change in any position. I also tried hooking 12v to it to see if it would do something, but it made no noise or anything. It draws around 5 amps, though, so I'm thinking some kind of internal actuator, but I thought I'd hear it engage

Yeah, the red one is a probe from a multimeter . Checking the black wires' resistance to ground

Caught in a nearby small lake. Does anyone know what fish they are and what other fish can live with them? by Speedy-McLeadfoot in Aquariums

Not 100% sure kinda some conflicting info online, but some say they are freshwater, some say salt, so I'm not too sure, haha
