The E8 and E11 are the same other than the amount of channels. The 1000 and the 2000 are the new updated version of the E8 and E11. Also the difference between the 1000 and the 2000 is channels.

Not really. Aviation only has one way, the way on the print. I have many many choices!

They are just plugging a couple holes. Like when you put a spark plug in a vacuum hose to plug it

I have all the parts to do it, i just need to get off my ***. Thats one of the things i am doing while i am rewiring it.

I'll snap some pics when it's in.

Allen, the Haltech now supports the Renesis trigger wheel. No more need for the +1 signal to go with the 12 tooth crank wheel. We're planning on trying one as soon as we can, but haven't yet. Would be a simpler, single sensor, single wheel solution, with more resolution to boot. Just thought I'd throw it out there for you.

Thanks Chris. I just went outside to snap a couple pics of the trigger setup but the battery was dead on my camera I already have the 12 tooth trigger wheel welded onto the crank pulley and have the sensor bracket made up so it's too late now. I still have to figure out the home tooth situation but it shouldn't be too bad. How does the renny setup look, i don't even know if it would work with my cover/pulley setup. How many tooth is it? I need to get with you about that USB cable too!

I'm getting all the wires laid out where they go and will start making harnesses and terminating them soon.



Also got the power and ground distribution blocks made up and mounted the main relay.




Touched up a few things on the instrument panel.

Yep. One of the first things I don't feel like I need to redo 16 times. People might actually think we knew what we were doing.
