All aluminium radiators will corrode due to contact with water and although the corrosion of alloys is not as obvious as the rusting of steel or iron it still has the potential to cause problems in time.

Fortunately, there is a simple solution to the problem; that uses the naturally occurring electrochemical potential difference between different metallic elements to provide protection.

Put simply, by including a metal that corrodes more easily than aluminium in the cooling system the corrosion potential of the aluminium is reduced, bringing it closer to an immune state.

This can be achieved by fitting a zinc sacrificial anode into More >

Even a stock camshaft needs to be timed correctly. If you want to get the maximum benefit from a ‘hot’ cam it is doubly important that the timing is correct. The duplex vernier adjustable timing gear-set uses sets of dowel holes with two-degree increments and the best chain available (2H4905EVO).

When done properly your cam will be within one degree of right (the use of a 1-degree offset key means that you can be exact!)

The kit includes billet steel upper and lower gears plus a quality non-stretch EVO chain.

The factory ‘dot-to-dot’ method of cam timing can, because of manufacturing tolerances, be More >

Not many companies know how to get more horsepower out of a Ford V8 engine than Roush Performance. It’s been the case ever since founder Jack Roush was building hot Fords for the famous Gapp and Roush Pro Stock team back in the 1970s.

Roush uses its drag race, road course, and NASCAR engine experience to build its small block, FE, and 429/460 big block crate engines. All Roush crate engines are dyno-tested and guaranteed to make within 2 per cent of the advertised horsepower ratings.

Summit Racing carries 108 versions of Roush Performance crate engines in several series. All are fully More >
