I put one in my wife's 69 convertible. Had to defeat the safety feature that prevents the brake from engaging when the car is running so I could engage the brake while moving in reverse to adjust the brake.

Default Dyno time

So HUGE thanks to the guys at SPL Tuning in Dundas Ontario, and Andrew specifically that dialed this car in and tuned this beast to get 740 foot lbs of torque to the rear wheels

I called Estopp and asked about the switch, and yes it has a module that goes with it that does everything. They said they would sell me the switch or the switch and module since I've already got the actuator. Really nice and helpful people too, by the way..

I don't think the switch without the controller will be very useful. Summit sells the module and switch if I remember right. Unless your actuator draws the same amount of current as the E-Stopp actuator I am not sure how it will operate properly. The controller senses the current to determine when to stop the actuator if I understood it correctly.

I'm telling ya', the more I look at their complete setup, the more I like it. I like their cable management system. I may have to bite the bullet and buy their whole system. Mine was cool for a while (if I could only be satisfied with what I have since it works) Theirs is just way cooler!

That my friend is a great question!!!
I will likely end up twin turbo LS, and I may just run straight pipe out the rear part of the rockers. I'm a long way from that right now, so I'll play it by ear.
