Start gate build advice

Hi
Can anyone help with some advice on building a single start gate.
I am not worried about the welding and ramp design.
I am interested in the electrics - lights, count down and what ram to use.
Thanks

I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts

Thanks for the info.
I have been doing a quick search and

use Parker Cylinders. These are available and quite cheap from other suppliers.
Can I use these? If so what do I need to do and what parts do I need to operate the gate? has anyone got drawings or photos?
Thanks Matt
