THROTTLE MADE ONE OUT OF A CHRYSLER ALTERNATOR!!!!IT WAS SWEET,YOU SET THE AMPS BY HOW HIGH THE IDLE WAS SET!!!!IT WOULD BURN THROUGH 1/4 INCH PLATE!!!!TOO BAD HE CUT THE BRACKET HE HAD BUILT, OFF OF THE TRUGGY WHEN HE INSTALLED THE FUEL INJECTION....SINCE THEY SAID IT WOULD KILL THE COMPUTER IF HE TRIED TO WELD ON THE TRUCK WHILE IT WAS RUNNING!!!!:frown:

I THINK YA CAN JUST GO DOWN TO THE WELDING SUPPLY PLACE AND MAKE THE CABLES....THEN YOU NEED SPECIAL SMALL DIAMETER ROD(CANT REMEMBER THE #).
