New ZEX™ Dominator Perimeter Plate Now Available As Retro-Fit Kit

Update obsolete spray-bar nitrous systems with the latest in plate system technology


(12-12-2005) - Unlike traditional nitrous injection plates, the ZEX™ Perimeter Plate employs multiple injection points to ensure that a perfectly atomized, cylinder-to-cylinder balanced blend of fuel and nitrous reaches your engine. The new ZEX™ Perimeter Injection™ technology eliminates nitrous delivery imbalance; the major drawback with spray-bar type nitrous systems. Best of all, owners of vehicles currently using the old technology spray-bar systems can purchase the new ZEX™ Retro-Fit Kit which includes only the ZEX™ Perimeter Plate and appropriate gaskets. This inexpensive alternative immediately delivers all the benefits of the Perimeter Plate system without having to purchase an entirely new nitrous kit.

The benefits of the ZEX™ Perimeter Plate go beyond the obvious Perimeter Injection™ technology.

Black Exhaust Wrap; A Thermal Tuning Solution to Controlling Under Hood Heat While Offering a Different Look

(11-23-2005) - Racers can tell you first hand about the damaging effects of excessive under hood heat and how it can rob horsepower and cause driver discomfort. But you don’t have to be a racer to know that intense heat can, and eventually will, result in component failure.

With today’s engine compartments crammed with so many accessories, electronics and many with intense heat generating turbo chargers, the need to control heat has never been greater. Wrapping exhaust headers reduces engine compartment temperatures by as much as 50% while keeping exhaust gases hotter thus increasing the exiting of exhaust gases. The end result: reduced intake temperatures, less under hood radiant heat and an improvement in performance.

DEI has just introduced a line of black exhaust wrap of varying lengths and widths to go along with their existing line of wrap. Black exhaust wrap is gaining popularity especially among sport compact owners where sometimes the engine compartment appearance is just as important as how the interior or exterior look. Black wrap serves as an alternative to the more common “natural” or neutral exhaust wrap color and black often blends in well with other under hood components.

All DEI exhaust wraps can withstand continuous heat up to 2000°F and are available in 15, 50 and 100 foot lengths and either one and two inch widths.

For more information on DEI exhaust wrap and other thermal tuning products, visit Design Engineering Inc.’s website, http://www.designengineering.com/

Be Cool And Protect Your Engine With Justice Brothers

(10-26-2005) - Excess engine heat leads to all sorts of power-robbing pinging and detonation problems, or worse overheating and a cracked head or blown head gasket.

It's not often considered, but the cooling system actually limits how much power an engine can safely generate. If you upgrade your engine for more power, the cooling system must be upgraded to match, either by using a larger radiator or by increasing the thermal efficiency of the existing system.

The easiest way to accomplish this is with a modern cooling system additive such as Justice Brothers Cooling System Protector. Don't let the crystal-clear appearance fool you, Cooling System Protector actually speeds the transfer of heat between the engine and the coolant and between the coolant and the radiator. This means increased cooling system capacity to handle additional power output or the temporary temperature surges experienced when using the air conditioner on a really hot day.

Cooling System Protector mixes with all types of antifreeze and resists the formation of acids and corrosion that can plug tiny radiator and cylinder head passageways. This protection isn't limited to just the engine either; many vehicles have automatic transmission cooling lines running through the radiator, which means the transmissions in these vehicles can also benefit from lower-temperature operation.

Available only at professional car care centers, check out Justice Brothers Cooling System Protector or any of their other premium car care products at www.justicebrothers.com or contact Justice Brothers, 2734 E. Huntington Drive, Duarte, CA 91010, (626) 359-9174, Fax: (626) 357-2550.

 


 

Revolutionary Premier Fuel Cell Increases MPG and Engine Performance, Decreases Emissions

(10-24-2005) - Automotive enthusiasts and even fleet owners can now improve fuel economy by 15% or more while increasing engine longevity, efficiency and performance with the patented Premier Fuel Cell. This innovative system “energizes” gasoline, diesel and even propane by breaking up clusters of hydrocarbon molecules. The high-tech Premier Fuel Cell charges the fuel line with a high-powered iron-ceramic magnetic field, de-clustering the fuel to expose it to more oxygen. The result: cleaner, more complete burn and less power-robbing carbon build-up and varnish on pistons and valvetrain components.

Real-world Premier Fuel Cell benefits include a significant increase in fuel mileage. Independent testers reported 5%-15% increases – approximately 3-5 more MPG on gasoline-engined cars. Other advantages include increased manifold pressure, less oil-burning due to clogged rings, reduced detonation, lower exhaust temperature, lower emissions and smoother idle. Maintenance costs are also reduced because the Premier Fuel Cell increases injector life, and engine-cleaning fuel additives are no longer needed. Straightforward installation involves attaching the Premier Fuel Cell to the existing fuel line.

The Premier Fuel Cell is distributed exclusively by Premier Performance Products. For more information, please contact: Premier Performance Products, 278 E. Dividend Dr., Rexburg, ID 83440, 888-497-3666, 208-356-0106, Fax 208-359-1414, www.premierperformanceinc.com.

FIDANZA ADDS CLUTCH LINE TO PERFORMANCE EQUATION

(10-11-2005) - Fidanza’s new line of performance clutches are designed for peak performance. Not all vehicles are created equal nor are all drivers the same. That’s why Fidanza offers four different levels of performance, from mild to wild.

Each clutch kit can be easily selected using one part number. Just reference the vehicle application, the driving habits, the stage and the rest of the decision making is done. The kit is complete with pressure plate, disc, throw-out bearing and pilot tool. Add a Fidanza lightweight flywheel for the perfect performance combination.

Fidanza’s clutches are “performance born” – all components are specially manufactured, none are taken from original equipment stock. For this reason, Fidanza’s Stage 1 (2.1) clutch delivers the same performance typical of many other manufacturers’ Stage 2 clutches.

Fidanza’s 3.2 kit, recommended for vehicles with upgraded exhaust, intake filter system, header, tires and computer system, provides a higher clamp load, as well as front and back KEVLAR® friction surfaces on the disc to provide extended wear and stronger engagement. The kit can also be used on daily drivers.

With ground-breaking new designs, the latest manufacturing technologies and the most advanced materials, Fidanza Engineering Corporation consistently leads the way in producing high-quality aluminum flywheels, cam gears, clutch kits, flex plates, CV shafts and short throw shifters and knobs for track, tuner and street applications. Fidanza markets more than 300 SKUs for this growing industry, many of which are SFI-approved.

COMP Cams® LS1 / LS6 "Gen III" Crank Socket Meets Unique Needs of Popular Engine Application

Specially designed crank socket does much more than simply help turn the crankshaft

(10-04-2005) - The General Motors “Gen III” LS1/LS6 engine family has become a popular small-block engine platform for today’s enthusiasts but requires different tools during the assembly process. The new COMP Cams® Gen III Engine Crank Socket is specially designed to help rotate the crankshaft via the oil pump drive, using a ½ inch drive socket system.

This uniquely designed tool attaches to the oil pump drive and incorporates a knurled retaining nut that holds your degree wheel in place when degreeing your camshaft. This retaining nut can be loosened while the crankshaft socket is still connected to the oil pump drive, so the degree wheel can be turned when locating the engine’s Top Dead Center point. Made from high quality steel, the new COMP Cams® Gen III Engine Crank Socket is the perfect tool for any LS1/LS6 engine builder.

For more information about the COMP Cams® new “Gen III” Engine Crankshaft Socket or any other COMP Cams® products, visit us online at www.compcams.com or call us at (800) 999-0853.
