Meade How do you solder?
andym85 replied to baseballer1100's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
you just keep on fillin up the terminal with solder until it is at the top like that, then it just kinda pools up and cools/hardens like that...takes awhile to perfect (which i still havent done) because the heat needs to be just right...no flux -
Meade How do you solder?
andym85 replied to baseballer1100's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
here is the torch i use...got it from home depot then slap the ring terminal and wire in a vice, heat the wire to where it is hot enought to melt the solder, then fill that bad boy up with solder...and you got this... -
glad i could help..lol. port displacement is wierd...maybe we should start another post addressing this issue.

to my knowledge.... to find your port area, it is simply the height*width of the port opening (or pi*r^2 for round ports). the other question, as i interpret it, is about port displacement. this is fuzzy even for me, because i have heard a couple of different answers from many, many people. Answer 1: the blue+pink area volume (l*w*d/1728) is the port displacement to be accounted for. Answer 2: the pieces of wood you actually use to make the port account for port displacement..say the long part of the "L" of the port is 20" and the short part of the "L" of the port is 5". take the wood thickness (typically 3/4") and use that number as width, then plug into the formula...so w*l*d/1728 or .75*l*d/1728...remember this method the measurements are the measurements of the actual wood used to make the port. As far as which of the 2 methods is corret to find port displacement, i am still not 100% sure, but from what i gather from what others are doing...i think answer 1 is more accurate... hope that helps...probably only made it more confusing...lol p.s. i love smd too..lol

if you use a slot port u can use the same formula to figure out how many cubes it will displace, if that is what you are asking

1992 Honda Accord LX Interested in what is available in terms of air ride for this vehicle and what it might run me, not including installation. Doesn't have to be anything fancy, i just mainly want it to hold up some serious weight in the trunk from the system, but obviously wouldnt mind slammin to the ground every once in awhile. thanks for the help guys
