Inquiring minds want to know...

I just removed the TCU as there wasn't a need for it now(plus it freed up a little room for the clutch pedal), the CPU operates independantly of the TCU, so it doesn't create any problems.

I did have to remove the Nuetral Safty Switch from the auto and set it to nuetral to be able to start the car( has to be in Park or Nuetral to start)

I'm planning on wiring the clutch position switch in place of the Nuetral Safty Switch, this should allow the car to start when the clutch is depressed, and also allow the cruise control to work(it dosen't work now because it thinks the car is in nuetral)

immortal_suby,
I don't see getting down your way, but thanks for the offer, I've got three daughters-6, 11 and 12, so with the wife thats 5 and the SVX only seats 4, hence my problem getting to attend many meets,I did make it down to the meet in the Smokies last April , hopefully I'll get to another one soon.
And maybe I'll have All the bugs worked out by then

Oh yeah, Ill be sure to bring a towel for all the drool
