Here’s one for our North American readers – Whether you’re looking for a way to make LS cam swaps easier, need a big dose of electrons to get your engine running, or perhaps a faster way to air up your tires, Summit Racing has you covered with these tools for your workshop.
COMP Cams Lifter Retaining Tool for GM LS
Swapping cams in your GM LS so it can breathe better and make more power is a no-brainer. Keeping the lifters from falling into the oil pan when you pull the old cam out, well, that’s another story. What you need is a COMP Cams Lifter Retaining Tool. It slides through holes in the front of the block and holds the lifters in their bores to make cam swaps faster and easier.
The COMP Cams Lifter Retaining Tool is crafted from steel. It has an extremely smooth finish, so it slides easily inside the engine without getting snagged. An extra-long design with an integrated handle provides plenty of leverage, and rounded pushrod-style tips to help ease installation and removal.
Milwaukee M18 18V HOTSHOT Jump Starter
The Milwaukee M18 HOTSHOT Jump Starter will get your car running again in a hurry. Unlike conventional jump boxes, the HOTSHOT does not use a conventional starting battery or precharging to work, making it virtually maintenance free. It uses a series of high-output capacitors to increase the output of a Milwaukee M18 rechargeable battery up to 2,000 peak amps, giving the HOTSHOT the ability to start most gas and diesel engines in just 30-70 seconds. And don’t worry about those capacitors ever going bad. They’ve been tested and rated to last up to 500,000 cycles, meaning the HOTSHOT will most likely outlast you.
Other features include:
• IP65-rated (tool only) to work in all climates and temperatures from -4° F to 122° F
• Delivers up to 70 jump starts on a single charge with a Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM XC5.0 battery (sold separately)
• Custom clamp design ensures best battery connection
