Hello all, I have been monitoring this wonderful list for some time now =
and am impressed with the variety and depth everyone brings to the =
cybertable.

I am interested in setting up a hall sensor on a nondriven wheel to be =
used as a speed (i.e. RPM) sensor. All it has to do is give me on/off =
output and my program will do the rest. My question is, are there any =
ABS units I might look at. There are two main criteria: 1) has to be =
somewhat universal in that it can be interchanged onto a variety of cars =
with minimal fabrication(although, even if one certain setup isn't =
necessarily universal, one could possibly find one for whatever type of =
car they have). 2) it must be readily available and inexpensive.=20

I would like to test this on a late model mustang (fox body) so if =
anyone has any specific suggestions on other cars that might swap over =
their sensors that would get me started.

If there is anyone with general Hall Sensor suggestions that would be =
great too. I am considering the ABS setup because of possible junkyard =
availablility. .=20

Thanks
