68 Camaro Electric Parking Brake with Linear Actuator $130 Total Investment
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.2 года назад
I made an electric parking brake similar to new cars or the popular Estopp for a fraction of the cost. Parts used: www.ebay.com/itm/284107630927 www.ebay.com/itm/283467195247 www.ebay.com/itm/361412230281 For those wanting to limit the actuator, just found this video, looks super simple to set the stroke at exactly what you need: ruclips.net/video/ls4zv-nhBUU/видео.html
Driving the 6 speed Grand National powered 68 Camaro No Traction Short Shifting

Neighborhood ride with the 6 speed Grand National turbocharged 1968 Camaro. Part throttle run at about the 3 minute mark with short shifting due to wheel spin. This thing will be a beast when its dialed in. 62 mm turbo, 218/218 Cam, Champion Heads, MS3 Pro Evo, T56 Magnum, 10.5" Ram dual-disk clutch, 91 octane with twin nozzle methanol, no intercooler

Testing the RAZOR / ALKYCONTROL Methanol Injection pump and atomizers running off a solid state relay and controlled with a MS3 Pro EVO and Tuner Studio. This was performed using the CAN bus / Testmodes tab, then Test Modes I/O. Pulsed at 25%, 50%, and 100% duty cycle. 68 Camaro with 87 Buick Grand National engine and T56 Magnum 6 speed manual transmission
Couple years later, do you know of an actuator that isnt as loud? Great video! Looking to do this since i had to make a custom center console for cup holders and lost my e break
Still working great. Never looked for others, the noise hasn't been an issue. I guess you could mount it in a box, that's what E Stopp does.
I suppose you're using the master cylinder that comes with a booster but what Reservoir is that?
I believe it's a Model S reservoir. Currently looking at larger bore masters for more "feel" the pedal is super soft
@@231turboscott Thanks. I have a 68 as well so I'll keep that I mind, but for my 81 Rabbit with a 22mm master this may not be an issue.
Thanks for sharing. I'm installing a Gen 2 iBooster into a truck I'm restomodding.
Where did you get the billet adaptor from?
The adapter is made by BBT fabrications. www.intekotto.com/shop-all-parts#!/iBooster-adapter/p/500108290/category=0 or check out retrofitsolutions.net
Additionally, you only need the billet adapter for Gen1 installs. It basically just adapts to a standard GM bolt pattern. Retrofitsolutions.net has custom brackets for Gen2 installs. Both units work great so source the unit first then decide how to adapt.
thank you for the heads up!@@231turboscott
How did you mount it to the frame?
All the linear actuators mount the same, with a single bolt through the opposite end of the ram
Legit!
Need a cam on the tach and speedo then take us on the highway!
Ist exactly what im thinking how to build it
Love it brother! Cant wait to cruise together sometime.
Awesome! I was checking out the E Stopp as well but $$$. Definitely going this route, thank you !!
Very great, I'm looking to do the same, thanks for sharing. The actuator is protected against overload with a build in clutch, do you experience to go to the self full stop of the actuator (aka 225lbs of pull)?
Thanks for the comment. I have yet to let it go full travel, It's very easy to tell by sound when you have enough pull.
This is great. I wonder how you could incorporate a manual disengage just in case some day down the road the actuator motor dies and you need to release it
It has one, it's called a wrench lol. Wouldn't be that hard to just manually disengage the actuator.
Hi. Good job. Why don't you use a timer relay ? Relay could work with keys (ACC) when you stop the engine this systems will work ...?
Great idea, definitely trying to keep it simple but excellent suggestion. Thanks
Also I have 12v on pin4? Is that correct because I thought the Megasquirt was sending a ground
Shouldn't need a regular relay, Mine is 12V ign feed direct from fusebox to Pin 1. Pin 2 is output to the load (whatever you're trying to PWM). Pin 3 is ground, and Pin 4 is the MS3 signal wire. Good Luck, let us know how it works
@@231turboscott should pin 4 have 12v on it though? I think my relay may be bad
For PWM the signal will be a frequency, not as simple as just checking for 12V or ground. What ECU are you using? I have an MS3Pro EVO
@@231turboscott ms3pnp
I used the upgraded relay ..and do you have to use a regular relay with it ?.. right now it’s coming and not going off until I kill the power ? The Megasquirt will activate but not shut it off .. I know it’s not Megasquirt related there for it runs without the pwm wire from the MS
Huhhhh! Imagine riding shot gun and pressing the park button. 🤔 🧐
Thanks for the feedback. Anything is possible, however, it's a slow pull, takes about 3 - 4 seconds to fully activate. Improbable that the driver wouldn't notice as it starts pulling.
Sweet. Looking to do the exact same thing. Care to share the stroke length and where you got the components? Like to have enough torque. Nice job and setup
Yes sir, check the description for links. Its a 2" stroke actuator, of which I'm using maybe 1.5". I go by sound, once you hear it start to struggle a bit you're done.
@@231turboscott taking 100% of your suggestions. Not sure I have room to make a90 deg turn to a common actuator. Might need to use two units, but your sharing of your experience is really cool. I basically have a rear with a 9" drive shaft. Thx
Was wondering if you have been able to get some run time on this to see how it's holding up. I have a twin-turbo mustang that has a ms3pro. I was using a regular 2 relay setup for my fan but had an issue with the wire melting (my fault it grounded out) and wound up overheating and split my radiator so got a new one coming now and it has 2 fans on it. Was thinking of setting up similar to yours so it does not take the initial hit when it kicks on
I've since upgraded to the 902-310 relay and have about 650 miles so far, works great. I did read somewhere that the next Tuner Studio Beta is supposed to have pwm fan strategy imbedded which will be great to add additional features like commanded 100% when AC is on regardless of temp, and shutting off fans entirely above a set mph
@@231turboscott awsome glad it's working good. And yes to implement that in TunerStudio would be fantastic 😀 thanks for the info
@@231turboscott Another quick question about this. The Dorman 902-310 is the same one I got it just arrived today I'm going to try and set it up this weekend because I'm still waiting on my new radiator and fans. I was curious which frequency seemed to work best for it? also seen as it is the exact same one I figured I'd double-check with you about the wiring before I put it in. I have never used a solid-state relay but this is what I was thinking pin 1 - Fused +12V pin 2 - Output to load pin 3 - ground pin 4 - Control wire (MS3PRO PWM to ground)
@@TheEminit You got it
Very interesting
Very cool. I'd like to see the rest of the car
Thanks Justin. There's a short video of my wife driving the car. I also intend to do a walk around video once the interior is a little more complete
OMG SCOTT - The sound is unreal. Well done
Sweet video, is the pump wired directly to the megasquirt? I did that with my pump by using the big unused transistors that would normally drive low impedance injectors (I think) on an original megasquirt. I never did a good test like you did to see how well the megasquirt varied the flow. Now I have the methanol removed from the car though.
It's an ALKY control kit, I just removed the controller and MAP sensor and it's now controlled with the MS3 via a solid state relay. The settings and table are located under the "Advanced Engine" tab then "Water Injection" in Tuner Studio.
thanks for sharing. I have gone through several of these SSR relays with my fans. The power pin on it keeps melting the connector from heat I guess from the load. How is your fan and SSR holding up so far?
Hello Jochen! Unfortunately, this setup has very little runtime. However, here's a better long term relay for higher loads. www.amazon.com/Dorman-902-310-Radiator-Fan-Relay/dp/B0053T60SE/ref=pd_lpo_263_t_0/139-8915870-5995042?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0053T60SE&pd_rd_r=12dc0b35-aaaf-4789-a6fe-217b95b262b3&pd_rd_w=vQgOK&pd_rd_wg=NMN9i&pf_rd_p=fb1e266d-b690-4b4f-b71c-bd35e5395976&pf_rd_r=V60E377W2Q6F8Q87Z574&psc=1&refRID=V60E377W2Q6F8Q87Z574
I have the transmission out of it currently, once I get it back going, I plan to do a walk-around video and an in-car driving video.
Wow!!!! That sucks, s Sorry to hear that. Yes,I’m a member on the TR forum. I’ve talked to a few guys regarding their builds as well. Here’s my email Carmouche100@aol.com
Let’s see some pics of the engine bay!!! I’m doing a gmc s15 GN swap myself... always interested in seeing hybrids w/an LC2
Mooch, There's a build thread on turbobuick.com, HYBRID section, unfortunately, it crashed a while back and most of of the pics are now gone. Send me an email, and I'll send you some pics
Bad ass Scott glad you are getting the hang of the MS3pro
