Re: homemade eletric cutout
First you need to find an actuator that will work for your purpose. The worst problem I see for that will be that it will need to withstand extreme low and high temps. It will also need to be waterproof. It will need to run off 12V (preferrably). Take those criteria and any others you can think of and find your actuator. Then you can design the mechanism around that.1998 M5 3.8 Mystic Teal Camaro<br />Flowmaster exhaust, Pacesetter headers, 3\" cat, 3\" S-pipe, whisper lid, ram air, Spec Stage 1 clutch, Poly Trans mount, Walbro 255LPH.

Re: homemade eletric cutout
Here's a cable operated one... only downfall is that its only 2" otherwise i'd buy it. its a LOT cheaper than electric, and just as convenient.
