Or just do an "Ebay" and ship them a poorly xeroxed instruction sheet that is a copy of a thread on a performance board about a "free mod" and a handful of resistors for $25!! Works for the LS1 guys!

:D

all kidding aside. these finger sticks should cost about 40-50 bucks considering the work and effort put into them.
$25 is still a exlant deal.

Agreed. Thank you Fingers for doing this for us.

BTW, nice fender flares too! Where did you get all that clay?

20 lbs of Plastilina. Great modeling clay. Online ordered from a Jersey supply house. My old stuff was a bit stiff. :)

Hey Fingers,

How long does it take you to make a Fingerstick?

Thanks

One at a time, about 1 1/2 hours. If I batch em together it works out to about 20-30 min a unit. Less if I am having a good day and the soldering iron is behaving, but that is rare. Real time, it takes about 3 days of sessions for me to push a batch of 25 through. I can't dedicate the time in one sitting for a batch and my eyes can't take it for more than an hour or two at a time.

A combination of the two is ideal. Saves you a lot of clay build up. For anything that is fighting gravity, you need to either place the clay over a reenforcing structure or foam to keep it from sagging anyway. And clay is heavy. I just checked and that fender flare project used 40 lbs, not 20.

As long as you keep making them I don't mind the price since it stops egr codes for the 5" exhaust I plan on putting on it.
