Fascinating build! I would be very interested to see the details about the all electric a/c system that Vintage Air installed. What compressor was used and how many volts?

What compressor was used and how many volts?

I believe they used a scroll compressor, but yeah I'm interested too on the Volt/Amps....

That was a 96v System and more challenging supply line for finding that EV compressor.. We have migrated to 300-800 volt systems for all our new builds and systems..... more to come on that unit and Vintage Air is more than on it on the controls & integrations. More coming soon.

Why am I just now seeing this build? This is badass! If I was willing to convert my too correct and complete 45LV, this would be the direction I would go. Any updates?

Very cool but did sound a bit like an RC car.

 

[Chuckha62]

Could always synthesize the sounds of a rowdy V8 (or a Ferrari V12 for that matter).

 

[Dizzy]

Has it passed a smog test yet?

 

[SuperDuperCruizer]

Shouldn’t this be called an EJ40? Very nice build... develop a kit for the rest of us to build one.

The new 413 "8" Cylinder EV motor/system "Swap" is entering into pre-production... and we are now onto the 313 design/build with a new Fj40....! Will feel like 300HP in flat 6 format & be smaller than the 413..... 60 is getting the 413 soon BTW....

Dakota Digitals Cluster is fantastic.. Bluetooth programmable... Setting the Speed from phone via GPS makes it a snap... Full color setting are nice.. set day and night parameters..... Oil is spoofed and temp will be dialed into the controller coolant. Fuel is snyc'd with the pack voltage. BMS touch screen in glove box provides more deep dive into the system detail from this displayed home screen.... ....

This reminds me of the guy to puts wrecked Tesla motors into 911s. Very cool.

EGT Marquee/Development resto-conversion project FJ40 for the "eLine 6 motor block".... 150kW and 270ft/lb motor that will support both direct drive and transmission integration. The eGT313 concept rendering attached below will certainly change but for now it looks like the V8 eGT413. 313 has 25-35kWr of embedded battery in the block and will pair with additional enclosures... good weight distribution being key.. Mid 2021 and we have a Scrambler and FJ40 into the program.... Will keep that thread here to keep the e40 evolution in one place....Going to be fun. More .

 

[TremecElectricGT]

Here is the recipient 40 for the in-line 6 system... Gonna go back to the original green, and we might even flip the bezel in the process
