Stack Dash

[J-K]

A couple of questions on setting up stack dashes.

Does anyone have the calibration settings of the stack dash for the speedo. I have misplaced my manual and have no idea on how to calibrate it, my speedo sensor is fastened to my front offside wheel.

Does the revcounter need calibrating? According to the stack counter my engine appears to be revving quite happily to 8000 rpm.

Cheers

You can borrow my manual if you wish. It looks simple enough to calibrate the only issue would be getting the exact tyre measurements - I'm sure I read that Stig's was accurate to 1mph so he may have the figure to hand.

Best just borrow a GPS unit of some sort, and fine tune the Stack by altering the Radius diamension by 3-4mm at a time. The revcounter, well it does just ask number of cylinders and thats it.

You will do anything to get a go in an Ultima at Le-Mans!!! I may take you up on your offer (if all else fails)

Another option is go to the Stack website and download a copy of the manual.

Finally got sorted, got sent another manual out.
Cars all finished now and is back at the factory for the SVA.

For info my STACK was reading exactly 184mph when I was officially recorded at doing that speed. I've been nothing but impressed by the STACK system.

The only thing that I've found is that it struggles to keep up when accelerating hard!

It's VERY accurate. As Chewy said, when I tested it agains the GPS it was within 1 or 2 mph.

Originally I had the pickup on the front wheel but since then it's been moved to pickup from the driveshaft bolts.

Stig,

Was there any reason why you moved the pick up point?

Actually, the factory moved it when it went up for SVA. I think it's a bit more accurate there as there's less vibration.

Is the pickup inboard or outboard on the driveshaft and which side?
Yesterday I put the sensor wiring in down to the front wheel.

Steve,

Inboard on the right (drivers) side. They made a bracket which is attached to the G50 housing. The sender points down from it towards the driveshaft bolts.

Thanks
I'll pull the wire back out and send it the other way.
