In
the company’s constant effort to maintain their reputation for
technological advances in the marketplace, AEM Electronics announces
the release of a running upgrade to their Water/Methanol Injection

Revolutionary new intake manifold maximizes the performance of GM LS7 engines

The LS7 may be a powerful engine platform, but when has that ever been enough for the performance enthusiast? Now GM LS manifold
technology has been completely reinvented. The engineers at FAST™
teamed up with the airflow specialists at RHS® to develop the all-new
LSXR™ 102mm Intake Manifold for raised rectangular port GM LS7 engines.
Recent testing by Katech Performance produced gains of 16 horsepower
and 18 ft/lbs of torque at the flywheel (versus the stock intake) on a
LS7 with a mild performance cam, Big Mouth 102mm Throttle Body™ and a
Killer Bee intake. Testing at the School of Automotive Machinists on a
500c.i. LSX engine with LS7 heads netted even more impressive gains of
26+ rear wheel horsepower.

The popular “Ultra-Case” is back and better then ever.  After being
down from production for several months the product line is back in production, with a new and improved casting design.  

The
design includes no additional liner needed for the SFI 4.1
certification, strengthened area include the pan rail, adjustment area
and rear of the case.  Plus, this design greatly exceeds the 4.1
specifications.  Over 5,000 “Ultra-Cases” are currently in operation
since 1995 with no quality issues, no alignment issues and no porosity
issues. 

TCI® designs lightweight harmonic balancer for Small Block Chevy circle track “Claimer” engines that is economical, yet strong enough
for harsh racing conditions In circle track racing, stresses and
failures are common on OEM or “cheap” external engine components e.g.,
balancers. However, engineers at TCI® have recently designed a harmonic
balancer for Small Block Chevy “Claimer” engines that is lighter in
weight, thereby increasing engine life as well as performance.

Industry’s top selling steel rocker arms have been completely
redesigned for reduced weight and greater strength, yielding increased
valve train stability

The
original Pro Magnum™ stud mount rocker arm design has been the standard
of the industry for almost 20 years, but recent advancements in design
capabilities and steel casting processes have paved the way for a
“clean sheet” redesign. Utilizing years of valve train design
experience, the latest FEA stress analysis technology and an exhaustive
testing regiment (dyno & Spintron®), the COMP Cams® engineering
team left no detail to chance. Everything from casting techniques to
valve spring clearance was scrutinized to ensure that the new Ultra Pro
Magnum™ Rocker Arms not only live up to the lofty standards of their
predecessor but also took stud mount rocker performance, stability and
value to a whole new level. Consider the mission accomplished.

Diamond Pistons announces the release of its direct replacement forged
piston for Chevrolet 8.1L (496ci) big-block marine engine applications.

Like the 454 and the 502 big-blocks, the 8.1 (RPO L18) is founded on a
9.800-inch-tall deck cylinder block though it deviates from the other
two powerplants via a 4.225-inch bore x a 4.370-inch stroke (the 454
and 502 maintain a 4.00-inch stroke).

There are three versions of the 8.1 marine engine: HP 1
(375hp/490lb-ft), HP2 (425hp/505lb-ft) and HP3 (525hp/560lb-ft). There
is also a truck version of the 8.1 rated at 340hp and 455lb-ft of
torque. All engines are equipped with 4-bolt nodular iron main bearing
caps, nodular crankshaft and forged steel 1141 connecting rods that are
magnafluxed and fitted with 9mm connecting rod cap bolts.

In the past racers have relied on the ACCEL Racing Support Team to
provide custom ignition wire sets from our race trailer. With the launch of our NEW custom wire website, having custom made ignition wires is now simple.

With the demand for custom wire sets ever increasing, ACCEL has
developed and launched a custom web site – Wires Direct – so now YOU
can custom order the very same ACCEL Ignition wires used by top name
racers, in the EXACT design and wire lengths for your application, 24/7.

Speed Bumps and dips are the arch enemy of lowered vehicles. Hit one
too fast or at the wrong angle, and your undercarriage can be severely
damaged. Although much of the damage may be cosmetic, if your oil or
transmission pan is deformed or ruptured by the blow, the resulting
lubricant starvation can be catastrophic to your engine or transmission.

Trans-Dapt Performance Products, in Whittier, California has produced a
wide range of oil and tranny pans for the muscle car and hot rod
markets for the better part of it's 50 year history. And, although most
of these pans are chrome or aluminum models that look better, and are a
step or two above the factory pans, Trans-Dapt's line of SLAM-GUARD
pans go beyond simple good looks by protecting your engine and
transmission lubrication systems from the type of damage that can be
caused by road hazards.
