As some of you may know, just about a year ago Auto Meter acquired a very prominent English data acquisition and instrument manufacturer by the name of Stack, Ltd with a strong background in professional motorsport and road racing in particular. What you may not be aware of are some of the really cool products that Stack has to offer that could be just what you were looking for in terms of instrumentation for your project. Especially if you're into track
days.

In this thread I'll be posting some product info releases about different Stack products and will be happy to answer any questions that you may have
related to the Stack brand and products.

Without further delay, let's get to the good stuff!:thumbsup:

STACK is proud to introduce their ST700 Dash Display Tachometers, the ultimate combination instrument for competition and street applications with limited dash space. ST700’s are available in both black and white dial variations to suit your visual preference and include low glare satin black bezels. This signature STACK Analog and Digital display technology is action-packed with features, and housed in a compact 80mm casing. STACK ST700 Dash Display Tachometers feature the legendary, extremely rugged, STACK stepper-motor movement, with Digital Quartz accuracy for unparalleled precision and is configurable for most engine types utilizing standard and magneto style ignitions. ST700’s come standard with the following features:

- Peak ‘Tell-Tale’ memory for all monitored engine parameters

- Integrated Voltmeter

- User programmable, 4 way configurable, LED sequential shift light

- Intelligent Alarm warning system and integrated light, with user programmable warning points for all monitored engine parameters

- 2 User configurable analog sensor input channels for use with optional sensors and harness (sold separately) to monitor any two of the following parameters: fuel pressure, oil pressure, oil temperature, water temperature, differential temperature, boost pressure, or air temperature to name a few!

STACK ST700’s utilize adjustable brightness, LED backlighting to reduce current draw, provide excellent nighttime visibility and exceptional vibration resistance. Off-road and open top vehicle aficionados will appreciate the ST700’s extremely durable billet aluminum casing, which is fully sealed against dust and moisture, to exacting IP67 standards. Intuitive, rotary-pushbutton menu programming, and twist-lock mil-spec professional motorsports wiring harness make installation and operation a breeze. The show crowd will also appreciate demo mode functionality, which gives life to all the functions of the display and gives the look of speed to your car’s interior even while it’s sitting still.

STACK ST700 Dash Display Tachometers are available in a variety of RPM ranges to suit your application including 8k linear, 10.5k dual scale, and 15k dual scale.

Looking for even more functionality out of your ST700 display? Select from these additional performance options and build the system to your exact specifications and requirements:

-Wheel Speed, Odometer, and Tripmeter (Standard on ST700SR, Wheel Speed ST670 Standard on ST700M) - Does your application see double duty as street vehicle and track day terror? Add options ST670 for wheel speed (Km/H or MPH) and ST7094 for Odometer and tripmeter.

-Lap Timing System (Standard on ST700M)- Track Day, Time Attack, and Club Racers will appreciate the ST700’s optional ability to connect to Infrared Lap Timing Receivers for Lap Time information displays with accuracy up to 1/100th of a second.

-Lap and Split Time Memory (Standard on ST700M) - With memory space for up to 75 laps and split times (if split timing is activated), the lap and split time memory is an extremely useful tool for drivers looking to hone their performance and increase their consistency on the track.

- Acceleration Timer (Standard on ST700SR) – This feature will record standing quarter mile times as well as acceleration and deceleration times between any user defined speeds (i.e. 0-60, 60-0, 60-100, etc.), making this an ideal feature for evaluating performance upgrades to your vehicle.

- Performance Upgrade (Standard on ST700M)– Add Split Time system, and Straight and Corner Speed readout options to your ST700 package, when you’re ready to view real time information out on the track useful for evaluating driver performance.

- Neutral Gear Indicator – With the use of the ST918050 harness, the ST700 can be connected to the Neutral position switch of any sequential gearbox.

Yep, nice stuff for sure. A 0-8K blackface ST700SR is still on my "to buy" list along with the sensor harness and two pressure transducers.

Kris:

Glad to see you here. You didn't tell me Auto Meter had Purchased Stack. Is the Autometer website been updated yet, or will they remain separate entities?

I bet you'll be a busy guy here, from looking around I really like the technology Stack Brings to the gauges, and the Data/Video logging options.

I look forward to more updates, and thanks for working with me via email. I'm sure we will be visiting again soon.

Good Luck,

Ty O'Neal

Marty-

Happy to discuss and answer any questions when you get ready to start on your next project.

Ty-

Auto Meter acquired Stack in July of 2007. We have joint projects in the works and the Auto Meter website has been updated to include a link to the Stack website. Stack is now part of the Auto Meter performance family, but is a strong brand in its own right and will remain its own separate entity. As always, happy to assist with any questions you or any of the others reading this may have related to their projects.
