1. Black Group Data Acquisition Project 1
Prepared for Christopher Finch
Prepared by Preston Bremer, Brett Gutwein, Joseph Legan, Logan Sprung

2. The purpose of this project is to create a mock wiring harness and data acquisition system for the
IUPUI Motorsports Engineering MGB GT solo car. The car will be competing in the Sports Car
Club of America D Prepared class. The project demanded investigation and selection of data
loggers, sensors, wire, heat shrink, connectors, boots and all other components of a proper
motorsports harness. Contained within this report are the details of each of the above sections
and includes an economic breakdown and justification.

3. Introduction
The purpose of this report is to document the work completed by the Black group for Project
#001 during the MSTE 330 Data Acquisition Motorsports 1 class. The purpose of the project is
to assist the MG group with developing a data system for the MGB. The data system is to
contain a Motec logger, wiring harness, sensors, heat shrink, protective boots, connectors, all
pertinent extras and an economic breakdown. This will assist the MG group in selecting the best
data system for their needs.

4. Data System Selection
Given that the MGB uses an engine that is carbureted and uses an electronic distributor it is not
necessary to purchase an ECU. Instead the Motec ADL3 dash logger was chosen along with a
VIM expander. Between these two units the selected data system has room for all the selected
sensors and allows for room to expand in the future. The ADL3 is a fully configurable display
that can do calculations, activate alarms and control external devices. Please note, during the
time elapsed while working on the project, Motec removed the ADL3 from their website.
However the data sheet is still available in their download section and the unit is readily
available from online vendors. The same holds true for the VIM expander unit. Complete specs
for the ADL3 and the VIM expander can be found on their respective data sheets in the
Appendix. The ADL3 was chosen because it has internal 3 axis accelerometers that eliminates
the need for a separate accelerometer unit. The ADL3 also serves as a replacement for all the
gauges currently in the car. As such it will be mounted in the same location as the current gauge
cluster. The ADL3 comes with 16MB of internal storage but can upgraded to 250MB if needed.
Lastly it will log at rates up to 1000 Hz. The ADL3 will serve as display for the data system and
will log the chassis data directly.
The Motec VIM expander was chosen to expand the capability of the dash logger to include all
the chosen sensors while leaving room for future additions. The ADL3 dash communicates with
the VIM via CAN wires and respective busses on the units themselves. Due to the configuration
of the connectors on the ADL3 and the VIM, the engine data channels will be logged by the
VIM. The Vim expander will be mounted to a fabricated tray that is suspended from the
passenger side dash hoop of the role cage. This location will protect it from the heat of the
firewall and allow for superior access to the engine harness.
The ADL3 and the VIM expander were also chosen with a consideration on cost. While Motec
offers more advanced dash loggers, expanders and other components, these were considered
more advanced than the MGB and therefore overkill for the project. Being that the car has
limited adjustability, there are a number of possible channels that were deemed un-necessary by
either lack of adjustability or the nature of the solo event.

6. Wiring Harness
The wiring harness began with once the list of sensors was finalized. The complete list of sensors
is listed in the next section of this report. Once the sensors were finalized a path from each
sensor installation point was established. These paths were then grouped together for packaging
purposes with a consideration for protecting the harness along its length and methods of support.
The general layout of the harness can be seen in the following picture.
The harness was then broken up into individual sections of the physical car. These sections are as
follows:
 Left Front Outboard
 Right Front Outboard
 Engine and Gearbox
 Cockpit and Dash
 Rear External
Each of these sections will now be detailed for loom length, pinout schedule, required heat
shrink, required heat shrink transitions, required connectors and heat shrink boots. Please note
that all wire lengths were rounded up to the nearest inch to provide material for service loops and
stress relief of the harness. The wire chosen to construct the harness is 22 Gauge 55A011 spec

7. wire for all but the CAN specific wiring. The CAN specific is to be constructed from 31361705-
54 wire. Also the Ethernet download port is connector is to be constructed from M27500 wire.
LF Outboard
The LF outboard harness consists of 3 sensors with a total of 7 wires that will return to the
logger. This is accomplished with the use of power and ground splices within the harness. Each
splice is documented in the complete pinout in the Appendix. The use of splices is carried
throughout the entirety of the harness. It should be noted that both the LF and RF Outboard
spring force sensors have a separate pinout as they come with a connector on the sensor body.
LF Outboard Sensors
For all wheel speeds the Texys DHE Wheel Speed Sensor was selected. On the front corners
these sensors will be mounted on a bracket similar to the one in Figure 3. The bracket will then
be mounted opposite the caliper onto the actual upright.
Figure 3
The tone wheel will be fastened onto the back side of the wheel hub by means of stand-off
brackets creating something similar to Figure 4
Figure 4
For damper travel on all four dampers the Motec Linear Potentiometers 150mm were chosen due
to the extended range capability and price. These will be mounted parallel to the centerline of
each damper. Specifically the front will mount to a fabricated mount located on top of the upper
control arm mount and concentrically to the upper damper bolt. On the bottom they will be
mounted again by means of a fabricated bracket directly to the bolt that locates the lower end of
the damper. This is illustrated in Figure 5.

8. Figure 5
Spring force sensors will be mounted directly to the damper unit themselves under the torsion
relief bearing on the lower adjuster. This is illustrated in Figure 6.

10. RF Outboard
The RF Outboard harness has 4 sensors with a total of 8 pins. The same three sensors are carried
over from the LF and a Front ARB Drop Link force sensor is added.
RF Outboard Sensors
The same mounting techniques will be used for the RF as the LF. The ARB Drop Link sensor
chosen is the Beru F1 Systems Push Rod Load Cell. The cost of this particular sensor will need
to be obtained from a direct quote. It will be mounted to the upper end of the drop link as
illustrated in Figure 7.

12. Engine
The engine harness serves two purposes. It links the LF and RF Outboard harnesses with the data
loggers and routes the engine and gearbox sensors to the loggers as well. The harness has a total
of 10 sensors for 13 pins then another 17 pins come from the LF and RF Outboards. All this goes
back to a bulkhead connector installed on the passenger side of the firewall, just inboard of
where the current oil vapor tank is currently located. This allows the pressure transducers for oil,
fuel, and front and rear brake to be mounted on the shelf just below the oil vapor tank and then
plumbed into their respective systems. Please note that included in the engine harness is the pitot
tube wiring that will be mounted in the passenger front fender.
Engine Sensors
The engine sensors chosen are the following:
Sensor Specifics
Oil Pressure RaceGrade M APT-G2-DTM-100A
Fuel Pressure Motec M KP41 100G
Oil Temp RaceGrade M 25-2197 D
Water Pressure Motec M KP41 100G
Water TempHot Racegrad M 25-2197D
Water TempCold Racegrade M 25-2197D
Gearbox Temp Racegrade M 25-2197D
Pitot Tube Texys 4mm Pitot Sensor - Pro
RG PI-4-Range
The oil pressure and fuel pressure will be mounted using plastic cradles along with the front and
rear brake pressures on the shelf under the oil vapor catch can. Then they will be plumbed via a
braided hose to their respective systems. The water pressure will be mounted into a bung that is
welded onto the upper radiator outlet. Oil temp will be mounted in the braided line that connects

13. the rear block oil galley exit to the oil filter adaptor. Hot water temp can reuse the current 1/8”
NPT port in the water outlet. For cold water temp a bung will need to be welded onto the
aluminum tube that connects with the lower radiator outlet. Lastly, gearbox temp will require
modification to the lower sump portion of gearbox housing for a 1/8” NPT port.

Cockpit
The cockpit is the most complex portion of the data system and wiring harness. Within the
cockpit all the outlying harnesses have their terminus within a connector on either the ADL3 or
the VIM. Also within the cockpit there are multiple static sensors that need to logged as well.
These include the video system, GPS antenna, yaw gyro, driveshaft torque receiver, three ride
heights, beacon receiver, engine rpm, throttle and brake travel, steering angle, steering torque
and lambda. All this along with the required communication harness between the ADL3 and the
VIM, Ethernet download port and the lambda to CAN adaptor make for a very complex system.
It is assumed that a Power Distribution Module (PDM) will be used so a flying lead is being left
on the harness in the middle of the passenger floorboard area. Included below are pinouts for the
ADL3, VIM, cockpit and the Lambda to CAN (LTC).

15. Cockpit Sensors
The following sensors were chosen for the cockpit.

The GPS antenna and the driveshaft torque receiver will be hard mounted on a plate. The plate
will then be fastened to the top of the tunnel with Lord Mounts to dampen vibration. The
driveshaft torque transmitter will be mounted on the actual driveshaft. The yaw gyro will also be
mounted on the top of the tunnel but it will be hard mounted. There will be three laser ride
heights used in the car. They will be located in the left front, right front and right rear corners of
the car. All three ride height sensors will be mounted on underside of the car with brackets
similar to Figure 8. The beacon receiver will be mounted on the passenger door skin by means of

16. a custom fabricated tray. There will be a hole through the door skin for the receiver as well. It
should be noted that two beacon transmitters will be required. The throttle travel and brake travel
sensors will require a bracket to be fabricated on the firewall to anchor the sensors. Then the
cable end can be affixed to the pedals with a welded on bolt. The steer angle pot can be mounted
directly to the steering column brace. The steer torque strain gauge can be mounted directly onto
the steering column shaft. The video system will be reused including the roll cage mount. The
lambda sensor can be reused but will require a new bung to be welded on downstream of the
collector.

23. Rear External
The rear external harness originates with a bulkhead connector on the rear firewall located on the
passenger side of the car. Once through the shell the harness follows the flexible brake line onto
the top of the axle. Here it branches out to reach both dampers, the passenger side ARB drop link
and the differential housing itself for wheel speed and differential temperature. Due to the car
still having leaf springs in the rear suspension spring force was disregarded. This can be added
later if and when the rear suspension is redesigned to coil over dampers with control arms. This
harness has 5 sensors for a total of 9 pins.
Rear External Sensors
The sensors chosen for the rear are as follows.
Sensor Specifics
Damper Travel Motec Linear Potentiometers 150mm
M LPS-150
ARB Drop Link Beru F1 Pushrod Load Cell
Wheel Speed Texys DHE Wheel Speed Sensor
RG VR-09-P
Differential Temp Racegrade 1/8" NPT Liquid Temp Sensor
M 25-2197D
The damper travel sensors will be mounted in the same method as the front units. The ARB drop
link force will require a new drop link to be fabricated. The differential temp will require a 1/8”
NPT port to be machined into the oil sump of the center section. Lastly the wheel speed sensor
will be mounted directly onto the rear cover with the appropriate shims. A tone wheel will have
be machined and fastened to the back side of the ring gear. This is possible due to the differential
effectively being a spool, causing no side to side discrepancy. This concept is illustrated in
Figure 9.

25. Steering Wheel Requirements and Exceptions
For this system there will be no modifications or substitutions needed that pertain to the steering
wheel. For recording purposes one beacon transmitter will be placed just before the start lights
and the other just after the shutdown lane past the finish lights. Typically, solo event courses
allow the car to achieve max speed at the finish lights so max braking occurs in the shutdown
lane. The ADL3 will be configured to start recording when the receiver sees the first transmitter
and likewise stops recording at the second transmitter.
There are many other sensors that are typical for complete data systems that have been omitted
from this system. Some of these are brake rotor and pad temp along with upright temp. Most solo
events do not provide opportunity to build much heat in any of these systems. A complete list of
sensors was examined and those that were deemed non-critical were left out of the system.

26. Rules Compliance
The SCCA Solo rule book is precise in the way that it handles data acquisition.
Per rule 13.2.B data acquisition systems are allowed but cannot perform any function other than
collection or displaying the data. However they have also said on multiple occasions that they are
not going to investigate data systems that are in use. They deem this type of investigation a poor
use of the official’s time. This leaves room for exploitation in several places.
If the MGB were using an ECU to control ignition then a system of traction and launch control
could be created using the wheel speed. If for some reason an ABS system was desired it could
be created as well. This would be a bit more challenging in order to hide all the components of
the ABS system.
Economic Consideration
The cost of the mounting brackets and supplies has not been accounted for in this report. Most of
the material and fasteners needed for manufacturing mounts, trays and brackets is already in
inventory along with the tooling. There are also several components that need to be quoted
directly from the manufacturer or wholesaler. Beyond these exceptions the remainder of the
system cost is reflected in the table below. Individual component prices can be seen in the
Appendix.
