This is the cable. Software and support comes with the purchase. The connecting cable was $1300.

Correct on the lines. The yaw sensor and wheel speed sensors are electrical connections, and the electrical input block on the control module can be seen on the far left in the photo. The connector is not plugged in in the photo, but it is pretty massive with leads to not only the yaw and...

Short update. I installed a Bosch M5 stand-alone ABS system. Highlights include pump mounted on isolators; short flex lines built by BMRS from the pump to bulkhead fittings to pick up the hard lines (flex lines to isolate vibration and prevent cracked lines); 1/4" SS lines to MCs and 3/16" SS...

Here is a video showing some of the construction. Impressive

Chris, A couple of questions about your soft lines to the ABS unit. I just bought the Bosch M5 stand-alone ABS system and am getting ready to plumb it. Bosch does not recommend "soft" lines, but talking to the guys at Brown and Miller (BMRS) they insist on soft lines due to unit vibration...

The Kindig '53 Corvette won this year's Ridler award. A hand-fabricated, all aluminum body powered by a V-12 using LS technology and C7 drivetrain. He also has permanent molds for a carbon fiber '53 body that only weighs 70#. If I were starting a track car build today, that body would be my...

Not necessarily true with the Z06 - on big slicks, no less. I was at the limit at 1.7 G's and got it to swap ends. Due to the heavy rear mass and all nannies off, once it snapped I could not recover it, even though I went counter steer and throttle within 1 second of the snap oversteer. Part...

Need to get back to work on my '56, but dang, this thing is a lot of fun. With slicks i am pulling 1.7 lateral G's in some corners and braking at over 1.3 G's. One thing it did convince me of is that I will probably need ABS on the '56 to at least prevent an occasional flat spotted tire. So...

I used my Quick Jack today. The 5000LT is too short to reach the lift points on a C8 Corvette, but they make an extension that just drops in and extends the length to 66". The extensions are heavy and they raise the lowered height of the jack by 1.5". If you need a longer length, I would get...

I have a QJ 5000XL. It has a 60" lift length, but I also bought the 66" extenders because 60" was not long enough for the C8. 60" works great on the Viper and the C1. Great to see you back on Elvira!
