In the high performance world, it has been pointed out that balance pipes have two possible attributes: increased power and reduced noise. We’ve had personal experience with some of the x-style crossovers, and they definitely improve performance.
It wasn’t that long ago that exhaust systems in general and mufflers in particular were considered a necessary evil with the performance crowd. Noise meant power. Or at least, that was the consensus.
This is the rest of the inside scoop on quality OEM style disc brake kits.
For this issue, we’ll start at something seemingly simple, and that’s the inner and outer wheel bearings.
In some situations, a drag-race-only front brake won’t work – for example, in a street-strip application.
As we noted in the last issue, finding any of the popular steering boxes might not be as easy as it sounds.
This time around, we’ll complete the housing overview with info on the back brace and a new wave spring perch configuration from Kim Smith Race Cars.
Instead of using marginal factory components, some housings are now built entirely from scratch.
At one time, it was easy to select a steering box for a drag car or even a hardcore street-strip machine, but things are different today.
Instead of using marginal factory components, some housings are now built entirely from scratch.
