The “Squarebody” Chevy truck is growing in popularity, so American Powertrain introduces their new Pro-Fit 5-speed and 6-speed system.
This new Pro-Fit system features the rock solid TREMEC TKO 5-speed or the MAGNUM 6-speed transmission with all the installation parts you need for a complete installation.

Wilwood’s forged aluminum racing ProHub for the 1990-2005 Mazda MX-5 Miata provides a lightweight and fully user-serviceable option, with measurably increased strength and durability over aftermarket OE-type steel replacement hubs.
The innovative ProHub design eliminates the one-piece sealed ball hub bearing design, providing a direct bolt-on option that accommodates any brake package configured for the stock spindle and hub. A uniquely designed spindle collar and lock-nut system incorporates separate and wider spaced inner and outer tapered roller bearings for added hub support and increased load carrying capacity. Regular bearing lubrication and maintenance is simplified, while providing fully manual and infinite adjustment to the bearing preload.
Protecting rubber, polyurethane and polygraphite motor mounts from damaging heat and chemical exposure is easy with the Lava Motor Mount Shield™ from Heatshield Products.
The Lava Motor Mount Shield encases the engine mounts with a Heatshield Products proprietary, specially formulated, volcanic rock-based thermal-barrier material able to withstand up to 1,200 degrees F continuous radiated heat and 2,000 degrees F intermittent radiated heat. The material also resists water, caustic chemicals and acids.
The Shocker Dual Action LED Light bar series brings versatility and lighting power to the forefront by allowing you to adjust your lighting to the ever-changing driving conditions with the flick of a switch.

Smittybilt’s Stryker Modular Bumper is perfect for rock crawling or everyday driving, blending rugged strength with modern styling. The newly launched bumper is deep draw press-formed from 3mm cold rolled steel, a process that results in increased strength and durability while offering significant weight savings over standard steel and traditional welding. The base center section’s aggressive, stubby design allows for extreme off-road clearance and has options for supplemental lighting.
A bolt-on inner winch plate (when fitted with a winch up to 12k), integrated lift points and 7/8” D-ring mounts makes recovery a breeze. The heavy-duty reinforced skid plate with added lower mounting support protects your front end from rock damage. The overrider can accommodate a single row LED light bar and is removable when not in use. Optional Smittybilt Stryker Side Wings offer front/side protection while providing mounts for additional lighting.
“Smittybilt is proud to offer Jeep enthusiasts durable, useful products like the new Stryker with extra features not found on traditional bumpers,” added Kukula, “And we can do so while remaining at an extremely competitive price point.”

IDIDIT Performance’s newest addition to its Pro-Fab line for 1990-2005 Miata (NA & NB) applications gives racers a new way to save weight.
Highly popular in road racing and autocross, the Miata has proven to be a light, yet tough, option for builders and racers. The new IDIDIT Pro-Fab Miata column shaves an additional 16-pounds off an already-light vehicle, which provides an advantage on the track and an opportunity to install other aftermarket products that builders may have been weary about due to weight worries.
uitable for drag, autocross, road and off-road racing, the ultra-lightweight column weighs just 2.65 pounds. When paired with an IDIDIT Performance Quick-Release Steering Hub and aftermarket lightweight steering wheel, the 4.05-pound combination offers a 16-pound weight savings over the 20-pound factory column.
Developed specifically for Chrysler 273, 318, 340, 360, 383 and 440 CID throttle body injection, the kits include GM proven electronic components and Howell’s custom wiring harness with connectors that are the same as the original equipment – each labeled for trouble-free installation.
All kits may be ordered with special options based on your classic’s specific performance modifications – for example, the use of a 670 CFM 2BBL throttle body for modified engines or a heated oxygen sensor for use with headers, or various intake and ignition system changes.
The Howell Mopar TBI conversion kit contains all sensors, components, complete wiring harnesses, ECM and fuel pump to install fuel injection on your engine. The Howell ECM installs under the dash and the fuel pump installs in the main fuel line. Bypass fuel is returned to the tank.
These kits are not CARB-approved (California Air Resource Board), and can only be used on vehicles built prior to 1975.
