ISIS Power Install in Challenger

Here's another good customer install example. 

Steve S. recently finished his Challenger project.  He turned to our team at ISIS Power when it was time to wire the car.  Like most of our customer installs, he wanted this to be pretty simple and straight forward.  He went with our 3-Cell Kit and inLINK to wire the car plus get security functions. 

His used his 3-Cell Kit to wire his headlights, parking lights, turn signals, ignition, starter, cooling fan, horn, brake lights and interior lighting. 

Here are a few pictures of the finished car and some of his mounted cells. 


He has started a thread on the For A Bodies Only forum talking about his ISIS install and his experiences with the system.  You can follow that thread by clicking this link. 

Stay tuned for more examples of ways guys are simplifing their wiring with the ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System. 

1952 Ford Victoria Wired With ISIS

We just received some great pictures of Jay S's 1952 Ford Victoria.  He bought this car in 1957 and customized it throughout high school. 

A few years ago, the time came to restore the car again.  When he was ready to wire it, he connected with our team here at ISIS Power to get what he needed for his electrical system. 

He started with our 3-Cell Kit to wire all of the switched functions in the car.  This replaced the original wire harness that came with the car.  He also added inLINK to control the car remotely plus protect it with the built-in security system.  He used our inDASH harness to wire his gauges and switches and finally added inRESERVE to protect his battery. 

His first show since he finished the restoration was the Hot August Nights in Reno.  To his suprise, he won a bunch of trophies. 

Here are some pictures of the finished car. 




Thanks to Jay for sharing.

Alston Performance Electronics Install Video...

As we've talked about before, we have partnered with the guys at Alston Racing to create a specific wiring system for drag cars.  This is based around our core multiplexing technology and offers a ton of benefits to anyone wiring a dragster. 

The base of this is our standard 2-Cell Kit.  You get one MASTERCELL cell to connect to your switches and one POWERCELL to control you switched loads.  It also includes our proprietary CAN bank of switches.  These come pre-configured, with labels and indicator lights for all of your key functions in the car including your ignition, starter, fuel pump, water pump, cooling fans and lighting.  There are also provisions for inputs on the MASTERCELL for a neutral safety switch, switch for a line-lock solenoid and trans-brake solenoid.  Wiring your race car could never be easier. 

We also include all of the wire that you would need plus the primary fuses to protect the power feeds going to the POWERCELL. 

Here are the key benefits to anyone wiring a drag race car. 
  • Less weight:  multiplexing means less wire, less complexity and less weight in the wire harness.
  • Built in diagnostics: right from the inSIGHT screen on the MASTERCELL, the system points to where problems could be in your electrical system. 
  • Simple switches: the bulk of your switches come pre-wired in a panel that mounts easily anywhere on the cage.  There is one simple cable that runs from your switch panel to the MASTERCELL for easy hook up. 
  • No relays: the system's solid state design eliminates failures due to damaged relay contacts.  Under extreme tire shake, there are no moving parts to worry about. 
To show how simple it is to wire your drag car with this system, we paired up with the ARS Productions team to assemble this simple video.  We walk you through the process of wiring your car, step-by-step.

Falcon F7 at Woodward Dream Cruise...


Jeff Lemke and his team at Falcon Motorsports took the chance to show off their F7 Super Car at the 2012 Woodward Dream Cruise this August.  Even though this is traditionally a classic car event, the F7 stole the show. 

The F7 is the product of several years of engineering effort combined with a tremendous amount of design and styling.  The result is a one-of-a-kind super car that is turns heads.  Most importantly, this one is Made In the USA in the cradle of the American car industry. 

Jeff and his team turned to ISIS Power early on in their process to design an electrical system and wiring harness that would get them the features and functions that their customers were demanding.  Based on our standard 3-Cell Kit with inMOTION and inLINK, they have a turn-key electrical system that is easy for them to install plus it gives them state of the art functionality. 

Here is a short video showing off the F7 as it was at the Dream Cruise. 


You will also note that it is parked to its close cousin the SL-C built by Fran Hall and his team at Superlite Cars

Update from Santa Pod Raceway

Simon Gough and his team are making some good passes with the Alston Racing 2012 Camaro wired with our ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System.  They are running the car in the Super Pro ET class in the FIA European Finals this weekend. 

Their last pass was 8.89 seconds in the 1/4 mile with a 60-foot time of about 1.29 seconds.  Pretty good considering how few runs they have on the car.  As Simon gets a feel for how it behaves, this will only improve. 

You can catch more of the action at the Santa Pod website by clicking here.  You can also catch live streaming video from the track by clicking here

Great Job to Simon and his team!

Drag Camaro Made it to the UK!


The Alston Racing 2012 Camaro just landed in its new home in the United Kingdom.  Simon Gough and his crew uncrated this naturally aspirated beast over the weekend and already have it on the track.  They did some testing and tuning on the car while Simon was here at the Great Lakes Dragaway.  Now it is time to qualify. 

You can follow the qualification runs of Simon's car at their Facebook page by visiting http://www.facebook.com/sharron.k.gough.  You can also catch a live webcast from the dragstrip in England by clicking this link.  We will post updates as we get them from the Alston Racing team. 

The Alston 2012 Drag Camaro features a specific ISIS kit tailored to drag racing applications.  If you'd like to learn more, contact our technical support team at (847) 232-1991 of email us at sales@isispower.com
