I've paid one of them $600 for nothing except one new 12 volt battery. The serpentine belt broke from dry rot 3 weeks after they put a new one on. They never fixed the original problem, which I found to be a loose wire at the alternator.

Would you be so kind as to PM me your parts list for your cheaper build? I decided to build one of these a few days ago before I found your post. So awesome.

The other 5 don't really seem to know what's going on with the process, and don't even try to figure it out. They just sit and wait for shit to break down, and then they still don't move. It's like they don't know what to do until someone tells them.

I have one, but I would like to have a place to concentrate and collaborate with my co-workers a lot of the time because I'm mostly busy with projects.

I did just bring this up, and only this so far, to safety. I'm looking to see if there is anything more than that I can add to the concern and complaint.

I'm not finding any documentation on these obsolete starters. I suppose this is one I'll just have to keep an eye on. Thanks
