Ain't that the truth. I'm currently on number 6 and have 2 of them at this time.

SIX!?!?!, Sheesh.. I'm looking for #3 and cant find any!!!..

Friend Boomtastic has 8 last I checked.. (miles away), You probably know him from .nl site..

Ended up here because I am going to build a PC oven and re-blast some parts so the poor convertible can go back together with a more durable finish on the suspension parts and other areas.., the water-based paint they used back 20 years ago just didnt hold-up

send your email address to me at berkelusa@hotmail.com or post it here

Sorry to butt into the oven building stuff but do any of you Fiero guys know V8 Archie? Knew him well and worked with him when he was developing his V8 kit. Lost track of him when he moved from Michigan.

To have a Fiero and not know him is a SIN.. lol

31' Chevy TUB hotrod - 86' Fiero convertible and a little toy project a 1980 Yamaha SR250 that I got for free last summer..

Found out about PC after having the chrome rims on the Yamaha (done very cheaply and with great results i might add) and a local place for something like $30 and was amazed how durable it is..

Rims just back from PC


NEW scratch built frame ready for some engine mounts to be made..


Now I'm reading these forums and WANT an oven for my own garage too!

Since I was in foodservice for 15 years things like elements and thermostats are not a hard thing to find and neither is the wiring schematics since I have repaired bakery ovens the same amount of years..

HOW should I get started is a good question..

Maybe you can answer this. How many heating element can be connected to one oven controller?

Trick question ?

NONE !

The controler fires-off the relay and the relay powers the elements on the high-side.

IE: 110-volt coil swithing on 220-volts to power the elements that are all wired in parallel on the relay...

If the temp goes above the temp setting the controler shuts off the relay and they start to cool, when it goes below the temp (range) that is set the controler fires the relay back on again and the elements start to glow and the cycle starts all over again.. heating, cooling, heating, cooling...

On a bread oven its a 5 to 10 -degree "range" before the controler kicks ON or OFF again.., But also consider that in a bread oven there is another element in a pan heating up water to create moisture so the bread is "proofed"
