yeah those are Murhy, they used them on Diesels engines. My Buddy has one to activate G50 Tranny in to reverse with little push bottom on stick shift. ( GTM LS3/ G50  set up) very smooth .

I got the actuators from Electric-life.com  They are 45 lb solenoids which hit really hard. More then enough to throw even the hardest to pop latches. They also have window motors and keyless entry systems along with some pretty nice power window motor switch kits. :LL:

Is that Murhy actuator for Diesel trucks?? that is pretty expensive I had one too 1.5" stroke ,but it was so heavy so I changed the spring on MB w111 latch and I can use regular 5lbs actuator. i did try to minimize the weight at the rear door.

Any one who is trying to install power windows in their diablo knows how difficult it is to get it to work. Here are some shots of my install. The window motor assembly is from a 91 300 ZX. Latches are from a mercedes witch are cable driven by power actuators from Electric life. All window frame were hand made.
