BISH BASH BOSCH FROM MERLIN

Another cool product from Merlin Motorsport is this Bosch Electric Water Pump.

SWIMMING? NO, NOT THAT SERPENTINE!

Now you can get an Eddie Motorsports S-Drive Serpentine Pulley Drive System in the company’s extra-shiny Bright Clearcoat Finish.

It’s a high-gloss polished-finish sealed with Eddie’s ultra-durable Fusioncoat clearcoat used in the marine industry.

Nobody is going to outshine your engine compartment with an S-Drive system under your bonnet – and Eddie Motorsports says it costs no more than a system without the clearcoat.

The S-Drive systems work every bit as good as they look, too. Engine accessories – water pump, alternator, power steering pump, and A/C compressor – are driven by a six- or eight-rib serpentine belt depending on the application.
