New AMSOIL SAE 30 Break‐In Oil allows quick and efficient piston ring seating and protection for new and rebuilt engines. Cam lobes, lifters and rockers are protected by anti‐wear additives during the critical break‐in period when wear rates are the highest. In addition, increased film strength protects rod and main bearings from damage.
Aeromotive is proud to announce the official release of their new 340 Stealth Fuel Pumps. Although the 340 is similar to other OEM replacement fuel pumps in its fitment into factory fuel tanks and hanger assemblies; the 340 boasts over 340 lph of flow at 40 psi.
The principal power gains in Jon Kaase’s new P38 cylinder heads for Ford 302 (5 liter) and 351 small-block engines are derived from canted, larger diameter inlet and exhaust valves; improved port velocities; and deeper bowls with sweeping short turns in the intake and exhaust tracts.
B&B has announced their latest twin-sump oil pans for Fox-body Mustangs with 289-347 and 351-410 Windsor OEM engines.
WE BEGIN THE BUILD OF A BORED STROKED PONTIAC 455 TO OBTAIN 501 CID AND ABOUT 600 PONIES.
THE GOAL:TO CREATE AN IDEAL “INDIAN” POWERPLANT FOR STREET, STRIP AND STREET RODDER APPLICATIONS
I’ve finally started the Pontiac big-block project. A few parts have been on backorder, but we’re in good shape at this point, and certainly decent enough to get started on this “vintage” bad-boy.
The direction of this build is to start with an OE Pontiac 455 block, bore and stroke to 501 CID, and build an approximately-600 HP street performer. The target audience: the street/strip muscle car and/or street rodder application.
The goal of this build is to create an LS engine that produces around 400 HP, on a tight budget, and with a decidedly “retro” appearance. Basically, we’re taking a 5.3L ( CID) LS engine, and overboring to a final 327 CID, making a “new” 327 Chevy that takes advantage of current technology while stepping back in time to achieve a decidedly “old school” appearance.
Instead of running fuel injection, we’ll set this puppy up with a good ‘ol 4-barrel carb. The block is painted good ‘ol Chevy orange, with a few additional appearance touches that take you back to the old classic glory days of the smallblock Chevy.
Goodson has added two Magnetic Crack Detector models to its product line. Both models are available in 115V and 230V AC units and carry a full 1-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty.
Adding to their line of E-Street cylinder heads, Edelbrock has announced the addition of the Big-Block Chrysler for 361-440 cid B and RB applications. E-Street cylinder heads are an affordable line of aluminum performance cylinder heads designed for street performance engines operating in the idle to 5,500 rpm range.
Goodson Tools and Supplies for Engine Builders of Winona, MN, introduces a Pistol Grip Vacuum Tester.
Vacuum Testing is one of the most reliable methods for testing valve-to-seat seal when building a cylinder head. An electric version is already a part of the Goodson product line so when asked why the company was adding another tester, Dave Monyhan, national sales manager, said, “The automotive aftermarket lost a great vacuum tester when the Sioux™ stopped making the 1630 vacuum tester. We’ve been working to add a unit that could take its place.”
Edelbrock is excited to announce the “Carb Cash” consumer promotion. Edelbrock will send consumers $25 cash-back with the proof of purchase on select Performer Series carburetors – July 1 through September 30, 2011.
