July 14, 2021/0 Comments/in Cars /by admin

Our Infinitybox system has been used to wire the best cars out there. We’ve helped our customers win some of the most prestigious awards out there. Chad F’s “Mercury Rising” just won the Goodguys 2021 PPG Street Machine of the Year. Congratulations to to Chad and the entire team behind building the car. This 1969 Camaro is completely wired with our Infinitybox wiring system.

Chad started the build with a complete RS/SS car that was rebuilt about 15 years ago. It was a great foundation for his vision for the ultimate Pro-Touring car. Chad worked with the team at Mountain Home Street Rods to create this automotive masterpiece.

The body modifications are extensive, the engine power is impressive and the suspension updates get him the flexibility for a daily driver or Autocross.

Chad started with our 20-Circuit Kit as the core to his electrical system. He added inLINK to have the flexibility to enable and disable security from a key fob. He then added inTOUCH NET to have complete control of the car from his smart phone or a tablet. This includes control of his power windows using inMOTION and his Vintage Air Gen-IV through inVIRONMENT.

Our team worked with Chad and the guys at Mountain Home Street Rods to customize his Infinitybox system to get him the personalization that he wanted. This included adding a trunk popper to his inLINK key fobs and the screens on his inTOUCH NET.

Steven Bunker from Fuel Curve Magazine wrote a great article covering the details of the car. John Jackson, Steven Bunker and Damon Lee shot all of the pictures. You can read the article by clicking this link.

The Infinitybox system in Chad’s Camaro completely compliments the Pro-Touring style of the build. He has invested in a modern engine, transmission and suspension to get the performance that he wants. His investment in his Infinitybox system gets him modern electrical features in this classic car.

Our Infinitybox team is proud to be a part of this build. Congratulations to Chad for a well-deserved win.

1969 Corvette Restomod

March 5, 2020/0 Comments/in Cars /by admin

We’re still trying to catch our breath from the 2020 Autorama in Detroit. There was so many great cars there and a lot of them wired with our Infinitybox system. The team from Dynamic Corvettes in Saginaw, Michigan was there and this Corvette really stood out. The judges at the Autorama awarded it First Place. It is a 1969 Corvette Restomod built for a local customer in Michigan. He gave the car to Steve Snow and his team with the instructions to “Build me a bad ass car”. We’d say that Dynamic Corvettes accomplished this mission.

Congratulations to Frank Hinmon for being a Great 8 Winner at the 2020 Detroit Autorama. Frank and his team have put a ton of effort into this car to make it the best and it shows. In addition to making it to the Great 8 at the Detroit Autorama, his car was one of the Select Six at the Chicago World of Wheels.

1955 Cadillac DeVille at the 2020 Detroit Autorama

The car is an engineering masterpiece. It is full of detail. They started with a 2-door and re-engineered it to make it a 4-door. From there, the paint, the interior, the engine, the chassis are all integrated seamlessly to create this Great 8 Winner. Check out this video to see the full details.

Frank wired the car with a complete Infinitybox system including our 20-Circuit Kit, 2 inMOTION cells, inTOUCH NET, inRESERVE and inVIRONMENT.

Beyond all of the body modifications and mechanical details in the car, this is a complicated car, electrically. Using the Infinitybox system made creating a complicated wiring system very easy. The car was wired with off-the shelf components from Infinitybox and configured through software to do what Frank wanted it to do. The distributed architecture of the Infinitybox system made the runs of wire short and kept the bulk of the harness to a minimum.

1955 Cadillac DeVille at the 2020 Detroit Autorama

Frank has inTOUCH NET as part of this system so he can control the entire car from his iPad tablet or a touch screen head unit mounted in the dash. His windows can be controlled from the iPad so can the door poppers. This also includes using our inMOTION motor controller cell to raise the hood and the trunk by pushing a button on his tablet.

We also customized the system to manage his fuel tank controller. Frank has two different fuel tanks: one for pump gas and one for racing gas. He has a special valve that flips between these two different tanks and their fuel pumps. By using outputs from one of his inMOTION cells, we control the actuator that flips the valves between these two tanks.

The power, flexibility and versatility of the Infinitybox system gave Frank the control he needed to wire this winning car. The entire Infinitybox team is proud to be a part of this project. Congratulations again to Frank for an award well deserved.

Dementor Camaro at Detroit Autorama

March 2, 2020/0 Comments/in Cars /by admin

We had a chance to wander thorough the 2020 Autorama at Cobo Hall in Detroit. It was full of some amazing automotive engineering. One of the best cars there was built by Chris Walker and his team at Premier Motorworkz in Louisville, KY. They built this exceptional 1968 Camaro called Dementor.

The engine is a 6.2 liter LSA paired with a 6-speed automatic. The exhaust is a piped through a Varex Variable Exhaust system. The interior is spectacular and was done by Sewn Tight Custom Interiors. The car is a slick silver with flake and a ton of pearl, all from House of Kolor. It absolutely pops in the sunlight.

Chris wired the car with our 20-Circuit Kit, inMOTION, inRESERVE, inTOUCH NET and inVIRONMENT.

Chris mounted the front POWERCELL next to the driver’s core support under the hood. This makes all of the wires going to the front of the car short and simple to run. The rear POWERCELL and inMOTION are in the trunk. The MASTERCELL is behind the dash, just forward of the head unit.

They are controlling the car primarily from the customer’s phone using inTOUCH NET. They also have a head unit in the dash that gives them complete control of the car from the touch screen. This includes controlling all of the functions of their Vintage Air Gen-IV with our inVIRONMENT module.

We worked with Chris and his team to customize the code on his Infinitybox system. We’re controlling the headlight covers from inMOTION when he turns the headlights on and off. We also customized his system to control the motors for this exhaust system so he has manual control. We also tuned the way his interior and accent lights work.

Recently, ScottyDTV did an interview with Chris covering the car at the 2020 Street Rod Nationals in Louisville, KY. You can see the video of the car below.

Congratulations to Chris and his team for building an exceptional car. We’re proud to be a part of this car. You can learn more about Premier Motorworkz by visiting their website at www.premiermotorworkz.com or calling them at (502) 749-2324.

1970 Mustang Wired with the Infinitybox System

1970 Mustang Infinitybox Wiring

December 3, 2019/0 Comments/in Cars /by admin

Here’s another great example of a customer car wired with our Infinitybox system. Paul L. wired this beautiful 1970 Mustang with our 20-Circuit Kit, inLINK and inMOTION. Paul just sent us pictures showing off the finished car and how he installed his Infinitybox system.

This picture shows the center console of his car. You can see the MASTERCELL and the inMOTION cell located in the frame of the center console. The MASTERCELL connects to all of his switches. The inMOTION cell controls the motion of his power windows and door locks.

His engine looks great under the hood.

He relocated the battery to the trunk of the car. He used this space for his ignition system and his front POWERCELL. This POWERCELL location is great because it makes most of his front wiring short and easy to install. His headlights, high-beams, turn signals, running lights, starter solenoid, ignition power, cooling fan and horn are all powered from this location.

Front POWERCELL Mounted Under the Hood of a 1970 Mustang Wired with the Infinitybox System

His rear POWERCELL is located in the trunk. This makes wiring his brake lights, turn signals, rear running lights, fuel pump, trunk popper and other accessories very easy.

We did some simple customization of this code to get him extra features. He’s controlling his door locks from outputs on inMOTION. His doors lock and unlock when he enables and disables security from his inLINK key fob. He is also using a POWERCELL output to operate a solenoid to pop his trunk. We programmed a button on his inLINK key fob to pop the trunk. He also wanted an output on his rear POWERCELL to turn on with ignition. These are all very simple changes to our system.

The finished wiring is simple and elegant. We thank Paul L. for sending these pictures. We’re proud to be a part of his project.

Custom BMW E9

November 7, 2019/0 Comments/in Cars /by admin

Here is another great example of what our customers can do. This car is stunning and we can honestly say that we’ve never seen another like it. John Ward of Fuel Bespoke Design in Australia just had a great article published in Silodrome magazine. The article covers the details of his stunning restoration of a 1970 BMW 2800CS lovingly named “Von Trapp”. The article covers the car in detail and the pictures are awesome. Andrew Jones shot the pictures and we heartily thank him for their use in this blog post.

Custom-BMW-E9-Left-Side wired with the Infinitybox system

John started with a pretty rough car for this project. It took a ton of body work, straightening and reinforcing to get the car to what you see today. John wanted to do this car as a true restomod: keep it original on the exterior and interior but put modern features under it. For example, he replaced the original powerplant with a modern E46 M3 3.2 litre 330HP S54 motor and the E36 M3 5-speed manual transmission.

He also wanted to use the latest and greatest for his electrical and wiring system. He wired the car with our 20-Circuit Kit, with inMOTION, inLINK and inRESERVE. The end product is seamless. You can see no trace of the modern electrical system in this car. For example, check out the trunk-mounted rear POWERCELL and inMOTION cell.

Chevy S10 Show Truck

September 19, 2019/0 Comments/in Cars /by admin

We occasionally get customers dropping by our office to show off their projects. Chris C. brought his Chevy S10 show truck by the Infinitybox HQ to show us what he did and to get a few quick code changes. He and his girlfriend were on their way to a truck show near Indianapolis.

Chevy S10 Show Truck wired with the Infinitybox system.

Chris really loves this truck. It is the first car that he ever owned. He had done some modifications to it but it was totaled in an accident. He started over from scratch and it has become something pretty cool.

First, he dropped in a bored-over Chevy 350. It has a great rumble to it. Then, he channeled and bagged it. With the air dumped, it sits on its frame rails. Then, there are the little details. The doors and tail gate are shaved. The interior, bed and engine compartment are done up with accent LED’s. Lastly, he has a simple 150 hp of Nitrous to keep things interesting.

He chose to yank out the original OEM wiring and start over from scratch with our Infinitybox System. He started with our 20-Circuit Kit, added inMOTION for the windows and lastly upgraded to inTOUCH NET to control the truck from phone.

inTOUCH NET really makes this truck. His phone is the key to the truck. He uses it to disable security, pop the doors, control the lights and the windows. He can push a button to dump the air solenoid to drop the truck to the ground. Also, we modified his code to automatically roll up the windows when he enables security. It will be a hit at the show this weekend.

He proudly shows off the wiring in the truck. His front POWERCELL is mounted right on the firewall. The Infinitybox system is designed to handle the roughest environments so this location is fine. This also makes wiring the front of the car very easy. All of his runs of wire are very short.

Australia Built Cobra Replica wired with the Infinitybox system

We have our Infinitybox systems powering cars all across the world. One of our Australian customers just sent us some great pictures of his Cobra replica. Peter K. started building this car in February 2012 and finished it in November 2017. The car is wired with our Infinitybox system and has been running flawlessly on the road.

Here are the build specs on the car:

Peter wired the car with our Infinitybox 20-Circuit Core Kit. Our engineering team customized his system to accommodate some of his unique requirements for the Australian market. He also added inLINK for security, immobilizer and other remote features.

Peter mounted the MASTERCELL and the front POWERCELL in the footwell on the left-side of the car. Since this is a right-hand drive car, this is the passenger side. His front POWERCELL is powering the ECU, the starter solenoid, the headlights, high-beams, front turn-signals, front parking lights, cooling fan, horn and dash.

This picture shows the locations of the MASTERCELL and front POWERCELL.
