I have a 4-speed in my car and i have access to a micro switch, I had a thought that involves that micro switch..... Has anyone here used a micro switch on the clutch peddle to disengage the line lock went your is staged? If so, How did you install it and was there any problems or is this even feasible?

Push in the clutch and hit the brakes on the top end , instant lock up and way you go. Put it on the shift handle not on the steering wheel,you need one hand on the shifter and one to remain on the steering wheel. it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

Put it on the shift handle not on the steering wheel,you need one hand on the shifter and one to remain on the steering wheel. putting it on the clutch will work..as long as you use 2 activation devices.. like i said..the circuit will connect when both buttons are pressed.. you hold a finger button and the when the clutch is let out..the line lock releases.. once the car starts moveing you no longer need to hold the 2nd button with your finger. once this happens ...you can press the clutch all you want and no activation... no issues.. cheapst. 365" Iron J heads,,3480lbs best 1.39 60ft on SS springs.10.54,124 mph ...6.67 1/8th et.average 60fts 1.46 w/ small cam &.063 no2 pill tagged & insured [image][/image]

With the switch on the clutch engaged you hit the momentery line lock button to arm the relay and it will hold the linelock and the rev limitor all you have to do is put a 6800 chip in the low side hold it on the floor and side step that clutch at 6800, and your off to the races A little micro switch on the clutch pedel arm that you can hit with your toe will work Last edited by wildcargo; 06/02/09 07:30 AM.
