WOT switch

guys, im planning on doin the dr mod, and i need a "lever switch" or any switch that'll work really...ive seen a few people using these types http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...5Fid=275%2D016
but the only ones i've seen are tiny, will it matter wut size it is? where can i find one that'll work...i dont want a switch inside the car, just at the throttle... jime says an appliance shop (these are used in microwaves), but im not sure where an appliance shop is (sears??) anyways...help if u can

Yes that is the switch that you are looking for. What does size have to do with anything? Just order that one online or go to the store.

i just figured if its too small it could break a lot easier or it could burn from the heat, i dont know...i also gotta figure out how to mount it if anyone has any ideas on that

That switch is not good to mount in the engine as over time it will stop functioning, happend to CMAX, it would be better to try to mount that under the throttle pedal somehow...

That switch you're pointing to, is a 5 amp. You need a 10 amp switch, or it will go dead, like someone already mentioned.
