24.01.2022 Just in case you did not know that the venerable old 80A-1 is now available in billet. And by the way it flows up better than the old cast aluminum body fuel pump as well.

19.01.2022 Timing Cover - Fuel Pump Cam Drives - SBC and BBC both have cam thrust bearing provision to keep the cam from floating forward or rearward which moves the ignition timing and puts a thrust load on the fuel pump causing premature wear and failure of the fuel pump. In stock, made in Australia. Note, other timing covers do not have the cam locating feature that the KLRC ones have. Free PDF Catalogue Send an email to [email protected]

17.01.2022 I thought I would post this again. We used it the last two weekends when testing Michael Howards supercharged Big Block Chevy Altered at Willowbank. The rapid cool down by using our COOLER allowed us to get in two extra passes on the day. Imagine what benefit it would have during racing rounds when the time is real short. We make them for Small Block Chevy's as well. We keep the blowers in stock and if a racer with a Hemi wants one they need to supply the valve cover for us to install the mounting plate to.

12.01.2022 I just got a rush of orders for our Fuel Injection book which reminded me that it is that time of year when we have to get our FI books out the door in time for Christmas gifts. The FI book is a great present for that hard to buy for bloke. It is one size fits all and at over 300 pages you can’t consume it in one "meal". It is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Every time you read it you get a little more out of it. ... All I need to ship the FI books is a shipping address and mobile phone number and cc details. Best to send the info in an email and leave out the expiry and cvv info and we will call you for the exp and cvv. If you do it now you will not forget to do it later. [email protected]

11.01.2022 Some DYO or Bracket Racers with Supercharged Engines do not use cooling systems on their engines. After you win first round the amount of time you have between first and second round often does give you enough time to cool the engine naturally in most weather conditions. Although hot day can be a real problem though. The problem arises as you keep winning rounds the amount of time between each round decreases as the number of racers left decrease by 50% with each round. The ...amount of time between the semi's and the finals can be quite short. The racer going into the final round with the same engine temperature as they did the first round stands a much a much better chance of winning as heat soak can change the cars performance which is death to a DYO racers. So how do you cool your engine if you don't have a cooling system? There are a few options but here is one that some of our customers prefer. We designed this with a squirrel cage blower to increase the amount of air pressure it could build to help push the air across the cylinder head on this side, through the center of the engine and across the rods and across the cylinder head on the other side (with that valve cover off). This also extracts the excess methanol fumes as well. KLRC PN 89189-16230 www.KenLowe.com.au [email protected] send an email for a free catalogue. Aus Phone 0411 699 535 USA Phone 01161 411 699 535

09.01.2022 Some great ideas for products come from the client needs. Rodger Eckhardt in Tulsa ordered a PSI Hat adapter for his Roots but it was a SSI that John Force had owned and needed and additional adapter to make everything fit. Next we did a fuel system for a client that had a injector hat that had the JF bolt pattern but had a conventional roots blower thus needing a slightly different configuration of the same product. We now have these in stock.

08.01.2022 Winti started doing fuel systems with me when he was just twelve years old, now twenty years old, he has written new software for the fuel system business and does most of the set up and tear down and data recording. We confer on everyone but I am continually impressed as to how irrelevant I am becoming.

06.01.2022 Our Streamline nozzle bodies provide better air flow in the ports, if that is important to you call me. Ken Lowe 0411 699 535 From USA 01161 411 699 535

01.01.2022 I wanted to take a moment to explain our Chevy timing chain covers. Unlike all of our competitors that I am aware of we provide the engine builder the opportunity to put a thrust bearing on the front of the camshaft to hold the camshaft in place which does two things. If your ignition system is still driven from the back of the camshaft this stops the ignition timing from moving around as it holds the camshaft in place. The other feature is that we have found too many cam dri...ven fuel pumps have been damaged by the camshaft putting a thrust load on the pump shaft pushing the pump gears into the pump front cover thus killing the fuel pump. All of our covers come with seals installed and all bolts necessary to install. On Small Block Chevy engines no front cover that has fins all the way down to the front seal area will fit with a harmonic balancer, so we made a bolt on product that does fit behind a harmonic balancers. I should also mention that we are the only people that make these covers, who provide an O-Ring seal behind the fuel pump so you don't have to use sealer to stick the pump on. We make stuff that we like to use ourselves. We think like a racer.
