A gentleman purchased four 13" Americqn Racing "Libra" wheels from me at the recent TE/AE event in Boling Green KY. I did not get his name as it was a cash transaction. I have some lug nots and washers I would like to send him. I think he may be a Alpine owner. Any information would be appreciated or I can be contacted off the list.

Thankfully I could not find a replacement at a recent auto racing flea market, where I'd seen many the previous year. Why thankfully? Because it drove me to Amazon, where there are dozens available. After rejecting any that didn't provide specifications, I noticed something odd. The specified max currents for those black plastic switches cover quite a wide range, anywhere from 10 Amps to hundreds of amps, in switches that look essentially the same. For reference, 10 Amps is about two headlights worth of current, well short of the starter current draw. One of those wouldn't last very long. So I ended up ordering one that's rated for 300A continuous, 1000A intermittent. About $15. It is a bit larger than my old black plastic switch, but I got it into the same location with a bit of fiddling. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
