Ram Clutches has now released the
RatioTrax software for Lenco Transmissions in a joint venture with Performance
Software Technologies. The software allows you to quickly calculate transmission
ratios, percentage drops, final drive ratios, and tire growth. Multiple gearing
combinations can be compared simultaneously.

The software will accommodate CS1, CS2, and CS3 transmissions built in two
through five speed configurations. The program can be fully customized so that
you can build your own inventory of planetaries and rear end ratios to fit your
specific application.

This program is a must for any team wanting to optimize their
clutch/transmission package to changing weather and track conditions. After
extensive testing it is being utilized by many of the top teams in IHRA
including Tony Gillig, John Montecalvo, and Pete Berner.

The program is available on CD or can be downloaded at www.ramclutches.com/store/software.
The software can be download and demonstrated free of charge for 30 days.

Darren Mayer Performance
Engineering Inc. adds to its ever-growing list of specialty supercharger
products by manufacturing the first specifically designed Supercharger Lubricant
and Lubricant remover.           

The DMPE Inc. Supercharger Gel Lube provides a better performing supercharger
by addressing Teflon wear and leak path control.  While extended Teflon /
Nylatron wear through proper lubrication extends supercharger performance
longevity, the Gel’s ability to cling to the rotating rotors and internal parts
also increases the efficiency of the unit by filling up the clearance between
moving parts. It tightens the seal between rotor to rotor, and end frame to
rotor clearance, thus allowing the supercharger to increase efficiency by
reducing leak paths.

This also reduces costs by decreasing time between overhauls. The gel lube is
not affected by methanol like many supercharger lubes, therefore provides a
better, longer lasting seal.

The Gel Lube Remover was specifically manufactured to remove the above
lubricant.  The lubricant was designed to hold up to most all solvents and
methanol, allowing the lube not to be washed away from the rotors, rotor bores
and internal supercharger surfaces.

Because of this it requires a “remover” to cut the supercharger gel at time
of re-striping.  It is important to remove all traces of the lube from the
Teflon grooves so that the Teflon does not pitch itself out of the rotors after
overhaul because of any remnants of the slippery lubricant.

Once all the rotor stripping is removed from the rotors, the dovetails should
be sprayed with the remover to ensure removal of all gel lube.  The Teflon is
then pulled into clean dry grooves (dovetail) and the supercharger can then be
re-assembled.

After the supercharger is re-assembled, liberally apply the supercharger lube
into the rotor cavity. We suggest that it is applied once a day, usually on
first start up. For more info and pricing please log onto dmpeinc.com

Now owners of 400, 430 and 455
c.i.d. Buick V8s can step up to the proven performance of Edelbrock’s new
Performer RPM Buick aluminum cylinder heads. In dyno tests, these high quality
heads made 480 horsepower and 540 ft/lbs. of torque from a .030-over bore 455
engine with an Edelbrock intake manifold, Crane hydraulic lifter cam and 1-3/4"
headers.

They are available bare #60039 or fully assembled and ready to bolt on with
high quality stainless steel 2.125" intake and 1.75" exhaust valves #60049. The
215cc intake ports are CNC gasket matched for outstanding flow characteristics
and 68cc combustion chambers produce 9.2:1 compression ratio with stock pistons.

They are cast from durable A356-T6 aluminum and CNC machined in Edelbrock’s
modern manufacturing facility in Torrance, California. Like all Edelbrock heads,
the rocker stud and exhaust bolt holes are Heli-Coiled™ for strength.

Performer RPM Buick cylinder heads are designed to accept widely available
small-block Chevy adjustable rockers for an easy valvetrain upgrade, and high
flow 130cc exhaust ports in the stock location accept original exhaust manifolds
or headers for bolt-on performance. Visit www.edelbrock.com to see their
complete line of cylinder heads, intake manifolds, cabs and more.

Attractive and functional, new TCI® shifter fits unique demands of street
rod interiors

Street rods are unique. Featuring
compact interiors and unusual control placements, street rodders are often
forced to fabricate their own shifter parts for their “special” situations. TCI®
understands these challenges and has come up with a great solution with their
new Street Rod Shifter. Available for Ford, GM and Chrysler automatic
transmissions, the new TCI® Street Rod Shifter can be purchased with 8, 11 or
15-inch handles. Best of all, the shifter features 360-degree handle rotation,
making the shifter lever easy to reach and able to be adjusted to increase
driver-side leg room and avoid seat or dashboard contact. In addition, the black
anodized shifter knob is easily removable for simple boot installation.

The new TCI® Street Rod Shifter features high-quality, gold-iridized
brackets, a Teflon-lined shifter knob button for smooth operation and positive
lock out in Park and Neutral shift positions. The TCI® lifetime warranty and
detailed installation instructions make this the best way yet to solve your
street rod’s shifter dilemmas. When ordering your TCI® Street Rod Shifter
specify the transmission type, lever length and, for GM 4L60-style transmission
applications, the number of tail shaft attachment bolts (four bolts denotes a
4L60/six bolts denotes a 4L60E). For more information about the TCI® Street Rod
Shifter or any other TCI® product, call us at 1-888-776-9824, or visit us online
