Nov 11th
With the durability to endure a lifetime of daily use, the new Pro Combo Bucket from Auto Finesse has been designed to appeal to both industry professionals and detailing enthusiasts.
Featuring a large 20-litre capacity – along with a professional grit guard – this product is engineered to help prevent the recirculation of harmful particles into wash media.
The Pro Combo Bucket also benefits from a water-tight, rubber-sealed, screw-on lid which not only makes it ideal for accessory and solution storage when mobile but also means that it can double as a heavy-duty, detailer’s stool.
Priced at £28.95, the Pro Combo Bucket includes More >

A PROPER PAIRING
Nov 11th
Ever since extreme turbo engines hit the scene, engine builders have been searching for a better way to hold intake charge pipes and other pressurized plumbing on their engines together. Traditional silicone couplers can blow apart as the boost climbs, and other methods like welding the pipes together are no good because the welds will crack and fail as the engine flexes.
Vibrant Performance HD Clamp Assemblies securely join two pipes together in applications making up to 800 PSI of static boost pressure. The clamps are also flexible, allowing up to 12 degrees of telescopic and angular movement to withstand all the More >
LIGHTWEIGHT SPRITE
Nov 11th
With the summer over most MG Midgets and Austin Healey Sprites will be heading to the garage for the winter and if an overhaul is planned it is a great time to fit a Fidanza Aluminium Lightweight Flywheel.
Fidanza lightweight flywheels offer the following benefits: • Faster throttle response and quicker acceleration • Additional horsepower to the wheels (reduced parasitic losses) • Smoother, faster shifting • Easier braking, more effective slowing (due to reduced rotational mass) • Reduced clutch wear and improved efficiency (from better heat dissipation) • Cost savings and longevity (thanks to Fidanza’s replaceable green friction plate – no need More >
NO, NO, NO – HORN JOKES ARE NOT HAPPENING!
Nov 4th
During the 1970s and 1980s, many high-performance cars (such as the Ferrari 308, Citroën SM and Aston Martin V8) were fitted with the Weber DCNF carburettor and many of these applications used a custom-made cast aluminium air horn.
This air horn has been out of production for many years, but now Webcon has made them available once again.
Part number 5284800100 is supplied as a complete kit including a cork gasket, mounting screws and washers and is available from stock at £67.36 inc VAT.
Available now from 01932 787 100 or www.webcon.co.uk ENDS.
PINTO PAN
Nov 4th
Burton Power is now offering a reproduction of a SOHC Pinto-spec sump aimed at classic Escorts, but as this engine is fitted in hundreds of kitcars it’s very pertinent to totalkitcar readers.
Burton Power has introduced this sump as good used sumps are now becoming rare and expensive.
While reproducing this sump, Burton Power has taken the opportunity to redesign the sump baffle so that it provides far more protection from oil surge than the original version.
The modified baffle is designed to always keep the pick-up surrounded by oil even at all times under extreme surge conditions. The Burton Power sump features More >
WOOLIES ‘HIDEM’
Nov 4th
Our good friends at Woolies always have what you need when it comes to soft trim parts.
They stock the stuff you need and always look out for stuff you need but is hard to find or dare I say, unobtainium.
They now have white hidem banding in stock, which is an addition to an already very good range of colours.
It’s great for finishing off trimming jobs eg across the front of hoods, seat edges and panels. They even have it made out of Duck material (canvas) which goes well with mohair or double duck hoods.
