ALL-CARB DIET FROM EDELBROCK
Feb 14th
Edelbrock’s 650cfm AVS2 carburettors now have a little brother. The 500cfm AVS2 carburettors are ideal for street rods, classic trucks, and other vehicles with stock or mildly upgraded small block V8s. Edelbrock also makes this pre-calibrated, especially for dual quad setups.
If you’ve got something a little gnarlier, the 650cfm AVS2 is for you, say Summit Racing. They are recommended for small and big block V8s with dual or single plane intake manifolds.
All AVS2 carburettors have many of the features of the Performer and first-gen AVS models – a two-piece, all-aluminium construction for cooler operating temperatures and less warping; no gaskets More >

IN ISOLATION
Feb 14th
We’ve all seen battery isolator switches that look similar to this one before, but the Aeroflow Battery Isolator Switch has a rating of 350-amps continuous and 500-amps surge. Would you seriously trust a (similarly priced) Far Eastern version to handle that sort of power?
The Aeroflow Battery Isolator Switch has been designed to isolate the battery circuit and provide anti-theft and fire protection.
It includes a detachable key and weather-resistant cap and is also ideal for camper vans (RVs), marine, construction and farm equipment use.

SUPER ‘SUPER SPORTS’ FROM RPS
Feb 8th
I’m a big fan of the MG-based conversion kits of RPS Ltd, run by Garry and Julie Hutton. Indeed, I own one of their RPX TF-based conversions and think it is a superb update for the two-seater. They produce innovative and very affordable kit packages that can be bought all-in-one or in stages.
They’ve recently updated the RPX to RPX 500, which features several subtle revisions including restyled bonnet. Not content with that they have just announced the Super Sports for MGF. Although not a replica of the original (of which just two were built in period) it is certainly evocative More >
IT’S A CHILL BLAST
Feb 8th
New from Auto Glym is Polar Blast, which is a pH neutral pre-wash that takes you from ‘caked in mud’ to ‘caked in foam’ in the time it takes you to do a lap of your car with a pressure washer.
Once you’ve had your fill of 90’s nightclub nostalgia and your thick, pillowy, foam party has covered every inch of your car; put your feet up (for ten mins max) and sit back in awe of the amazing ‘cling ability’ of Autoglym’s already established and excellent snow foam formula.
As the product gets to work, visibly drawing the larger particles of More >

BIG JACK
Feb 8th
Rally Design has added a new 3-tonne trolley jack within its Blackline Tools range.
It has been specifically designed for race car usage – the 75mm minimum height should slide under most spoilers, but will be ideal for kitcar use. It will ‘rocket-lift’ with dual pump technology to 505mm maximum height using just five full pumps.
It has lots of safety features to prevent overloading and over-extending and fully meets TUV, GS, ASME and CE Standards and is very competitively priced at £108.32 inc VAT.
