Christmas Present Ideas

The Holidays are coming and a lot of us are going to be asking for things for our cars.

I am looking for a list of things that nickel and dime us to death when building a motor. I am building a 383 stroker this winter and I haven't really purchased anything for it yet. I'm hoping that this list will help me get an idea of the stuff that I haven't thought of yet.

As always, I appreciate it!

This is more of just a cool gadget, but...

I got this thing from my friend's dad last night. Its so cool! Its basically a system like keyless entry (can do locks, windows, etc) but you can make it work with basically any 12v accessory!! There are 4 buttons on the remote to use too. So far, what I've figured out it would work on is this:

- P. Windows
- P. Locks
- Electric Cutout
- Headlight Motors (Firebirds)

Theres prolly alot of other stuff you could hook up too, but I haven't thought about it much yet. Its got a remote with a 180' range too. Cost me $40 cdn, but I think he said he paid $65cdn for it.
