    rev limiter

    Just want to get an inexpensive rev limiter, every once in awhile when I'm really gettin' on it I miss a shift, and I just hate to see the tach shoot up to 10 or more, can anyone make any recommendations? Dyna is about $80, but do I need to get that nice of a product, or does anyone make anything a little simpler?

    You could try and make your own. National makes an old F to V convertor. This with a comparitor and a few other parts should be crude but functional for saving the engine. Maybe $20 or so in parts to build.

        Yes, you could do it with a f-v converter and comparators and a few other parts.

        Another way would be to go strictly digital and use counters and digital comparators. Use a sampling period sufficiently small so that you get an essentially instantaneous RPM measurement.

        I think the digital implementation would have more repeatable results, but either should work.

            I like that word, digital. It sounds so high tech!! 8)

            Maybe you could design one and offer them to the group for some small amount of $$$. Add the two-step feature and Jake may buy one as well.
