SUPER COOLER
Oct 15th
Laminova Heat Exchangers from Merlin Motorsport are an alternative and very effective way of cooling your engine oil. In basic terms, the Laminova is a billet aluminium housing, which is connected to the oil lines and the coolant (water) lines.
The oil circulates around the outside of the housing and core while the water passes through the centre of the core. The oil temperature is usually greater than the water temperature, so the water draws the heat from the oil.

PARTS FOR VEEDUBS
Oct 15th
Not a dedicated kitcar piece obviously but seeing as most kit and specialist car enthusiasts have a bit of a fondness for the Beetle I thought I’d run it.
A classy modification you’ll get to enjoy every time you open the door to your beloved VW Beetle. Tidying up the door aperture and hiding scuffs with their polished stainless-steel presence, they are simple DIY fit; you just need to drill a couple of holes to secure them.
Suitable for all years of VW Beetle Saloon, however, they won’t work on Cabriolet models, due to a different heater channel shape.

MASTER BUT SMALLER

Wilwood even makes one just for 1964.5-72 Mustangs with manual brakes; it comes with a pushrod that fits the factory brake pedal.

Based on the original 1953 JR competition specification, the JR continuation was built by Lloyd Allard and his family to More >
