If you want to get crazy too the turbo manifold can be tuned up to the turbo. Will help with rpm range needed

I would recommend this http://www.discountsteel.com/items/DrawnOverMandrel_DOM_Steel_Round_Tube.cfm?item_id=200&size_no=11&pieceLength=cut&len_ft=6&len_in=4&len_fraction=0&pieceCutType=41%7C3&itemComments=&qty=1. 1 3/8 I believe is a little too big for me but if your hands are bigger would work...

I have bright white in an orange housing.

Sorry should have clarified. I meant to power a standard automotive relay to power 10 amps switched. I have found on a sunny day a bike style led system is not bright enough. 2 projector fog lights are just right.

Use thicker than you believe is needed. When going for max pullups you WILL kick your legs and be bouncing around a bit. I would be using a 1.250 x .250 wall DOM minimum. Make your mounting points rock solid or it will get torn out.

would one of these be able to power a relay?

Honestly there will not be very much sound at a mile. Ballistically an average round is 900FPS give or take, some big magnum cartridges upwards of 1800 FPS. So, it will be a "TING" Sound is right around the 5 minute mark

I would start here... http://www.enginebasics.com/ A required book... This was a book I had to buy when I went to school for engine building for performance theory.. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0760315825/?tag=pfamazon01-20 I bought this book and loved it. LOTS of information...

how do you suggest that I keep it lit for say 5 seconds if I use a bike LED setup?

What high of lumens do you guys think would be necessary to see this light up from say a maximum 1760 yards (1mile) away?

yeah it will be a real bullet. Also there won't be any background noise. This target is going to be placed 600 to 1400 yards beyond all other targets, and if the person is off target the spotter will not see it light up. Thank you for your guys guidance on finding a kit/other sources.

I am building a moving target system for a shooting range. It will have a 40 foot target moving perpendicular to the shooter. I have not had any problem with fabricating the target system, but I want to go above what the customer requires. Hopefully this lead to more work for myself in the...
