Power (Watts) is Current (amps) x Voltage(volts).
Your volts are fixed (assume 12v) so you can change the current to reduce or increase the power.
Current = Voltage / Resistance (ohms).

Can you wire front and side indicators in series rather than parallel?
Not the safest in terms of if one blows the other is out too but means you wouldn't need a resistor to consume the power your...
There is a guy on the Eagle owners forum who has done some rather impressive fixing to the fiberglass body. Hes car arrived in at least three different pieces :facepalm:

The basic blade connectors are fit for purpose and they are used in industry (national grid and rail).
You don't need to get the industrial grade tools or terminals for a project car. Those tools...
I swapped the calipers over today.
After re bleeding the calipers, the pedal is much better.
I think there is a tiny bit of air still in the lines as the pedal moves a small amount before going...
I meant compbrake.
Ill swap the calipers over and try again.
Hopefully thats it
The flexi hoses are new on both the front and back.
Do you know if the front calipers are designed to be on a particular side of the car.
The bleed nipples are on the bottom of the calipers and...
Hi everybody.
I put a compomotive pedal box with bias bar into my eagle Ss.
Ive managed to bleed the rear drumbs and hydraulic clutch. Ive been having trouble with the front though.
Ive tried...
I think that will end up in a skip.
Shame as the glass looks intact and is worth a few hundred quid.
I doubt it has any documents with it.
Seems like every eagle SS that comes up on eBay is a...
Your fuel pump looks the same as mine, I think it will be fine.
Looks like you have got a decent engine to start with.
When you remove the heads, you want to be checking for cracks between the...
I did my alternator conversion a few weeks ago with parts from machine 7.
I was also worried I'd have to swap the fuel pump. There is also some clearance issue with certain carbs, requiring a carb...
In hindsight, I would go for new calipers (even if they are recon). They really are cheap at £100ish a pair.
The seal kits and pistons come to more than that.
In case it is useful to anybody in...
One side of the caliper, the pistons come out with compressed air.
The stuck pistons are able to rotate and one of them moves backwards and forwards but wont pop out with air.
I just cant get...
Hi,
I have been having fun and games trying to get the pistons out of my 2 pin square pad calipers.
1 piston is stuck in either caliper.
I have so far used compressed air (110psi) and that...
I quite like that car. I'm sure it's more of a prop car than anything else, looks good from a distance.
There is demand and a high price for back to the future Deloreans and Batmobiles. Why not...
Hi all.
I am in the process of wiring up my eagle ss. One thing i have realised is I currently do not have front sidelights (the first click on the light stalk on modern cars).
My car has been off...
I recently got my engine running again after several years and fitted a 55amp alternator.
It sounds like you know your engine was a decent runner before its hibernation. I have bought mine from eBay...
There is a bit of a craze on youtube at the minute about restoring/building crazy cars.
It's great however I've not seen many of them get finished.
Usually only the high value cars get finished,...
I have those low dual zoom cannons on my engine, they are loud!

Most likely a ford based one.
No v5 or chassis.
does it have glass?
+1 for getting the V5C before pouring money and time into this project.
A related question.
If you have a car that is registered something like VW Nova, how far can you go modification wise...
Ive not tested it myself, but reading on the samba, the starter solenoid draws 11 amps after it engages and 22amps before.
The key switch will handle it, but its a common point of failure.
I am in the process of rewiring my eagle SS from scratch.
I used relays for both the coil and starter solenoid.
I plan to use relays for headlight motors (pop-ups) and the lights themselves.
Ill...
Is the problem registering the car just a Spanish problem or is it an EU wide thing ?
If it's just a problem in Spain, could you not sell it complete to say someone in Germany ?

I saw the bundle deal on machine 7, dp heads and 1600 barrels/pistons. Its about £550 and i think i would need a different oil cooler and dog house tinware.
The heads are going in for inspection...
