BURTON POWER NOW STOCKING HI-SPEC BILLET 4 CALIPERS
Apr 11th
Burton Power is now stocking Hi-Spec Billet 4 brake calipers. These have been designed to directly replace M16 calipers which are fitted as standard to Escort Mk1/2 RS/Mexico, Escort Mk2, Capri 70- and Cortina Mk3/4/5 and a multitude of kitcars, thus providing an easy four-pot upgrade.

Two versions are available. BILLET4-S calipers are for cars with solid brake discs while BILLET4-V calipers are for vented disc-equipped cars.
The calipers are ideal for most road applications and heavier vehicles requiring an M16 upgrade. Billet 6082 T6 aluminium body and pistons More >
TURBOCHARGED UPGRADES
Apr 11th
Since 2008, Precision Turbo and Engine customers have compiled over 119 world championships and set over 256 world records. That’s 375 good reasons to bolt a Precision Turbo hairdryer on your car. Summit Racing carries a full line of Precision Turbo turbochargers, including these:
Entry Level Turbochargers
Precision Turbo’s Entry Level turbochargers can feed engines making 385 up to 1,250 horsepower at the rear wheels without busting your budget. The Entry Level turbos feature MFS (Machined from Solid) billet aluminium compressor wheels.
Unlike a cast wheel, an MFS compressor wheel is machined with more aggressive blade designs to deliver more airflow. An MFS More >
DURATEC MANIFOLD
Apr 4th
Webcon has just introduced a new inlet manifold to allow a pair of Weber DCOE carburettors or DCOE-style throttle bodies to be installed on the Ford Duratec engine.
Webcon’s engineers designed the new manifold and CNC-manufactured it from billet aluminium to have a thickness of just 35mm from face to face; this makes it ideal for transverse engine installations such as the Lotus Elise Duratec transplant.
However, when used with Webcon’s 32mm manifold extenders, the depth jumps to 67mm making it equally perfect for rear wheel drive installations where a longer intake allows for greater mid-range torque.
MM5060 Manifold is available at £439.20 More >

IT’S A WRENCH
Apr 4th
Not every mechanic in Europe owns a full set of AN (DASH) sized wrenches; trying to make do with steel metric sizes invariably leads to damaged AN fittings.
AN lines are also frequently routed through hard-to-reach areas where a large spanner just can’t reach.
Aeroflow has solved both problems at once with the introduction of its Large Stubby Adjustable AN Wrench.
The wrench features a 4½in long ergonomic handle and fits sizes from -03AN up to -20AN. It is perfect for a highly confined space. The aluminium jaws are specifically designed for alloy end fitting and won’t round or damage them. It’s priced More >
USE THE RIGHT FASTENERS
Apr 4th
When working on high-end, show-quality classic vehicles, kitcars or automotive displays, the fit and finish of the fasteners is just as important as the paint and bodywork.
For example, chrome-plated fasteners can be damaged easily, especially when using standard metal spanners and sockets. That’s why Laser Tools has introduced two specialist non-marring tool sets: the Non-Marring Socket Inserts set (part number 7463) and the Non-Marring Wrench and Pry Bar set (part number 7464).
Kitcars often feature fasteners that can be plated, anodised, chemically passivated or even painted. Lots of care and attention has been put into building and preparing these vehicles, so extra More >
