Holley’s Tri-Power Carburetor system is legendary in Chevrolet circles! They were the ultimate power statement when they came factory on cars like the 1967 427 Corvette. Now you can have the same look on your SB Chevy! Perfect for muscle cars, street rods, classic hot rods, rat rods, trucks, and more! Cruise around economically on the 350 CFM center carb, and when you decide to step on it, the two 325 CFM outboard carbs kick in for head-snapping performance! Choose from either the dichromate (300-521) or shiny carbs (300-522).

A true blast from the past. These highly sought-after superchargers have been unavailable for years, but now Weiand is proud to reintroduce them. The cases for the 6-71 and 8-71 superchargers have been redesigned for a nostalgic look that will be at home on a Cacklefest dragster as well as a new high-end build.

HORSEPOWER! Weiand’s 6-71 and 8-71 kits are the ultimate statement of power and looks. Pull into the local cruise-in or drag strip with one of these sticking through the hood and you will get noticed. They’re not for the meek, however; these supercharger kits are designed to generate 50%+ more horsepower and torque across the RPM range!

Airaid 450-930 Modular Intake Tube for 2015 Ford Mustang 2.3L EcoBoost

David Ayers Leave a comment
Use This Post Clip for Email

AIRAID Modular Intake Tubes (MIT) optimize airflow to the engine by replacing the factory intake tube. Factory tubes often have accordion-shaped walls, sound-canceling baffles, and undersized tube diameters, all of which hurt airflow. AIRAID MIT kits help straighten and improve airflow to the engine while having a larger opening with a reducer coupler at the turbo. This design enables the tube to easily accommodate future turbo upgrades with larger inlets. The design provides better throttle response and additional horsepower along with better fuel economy.

K&N 63-2589 63 Series AirCharger Kit for 2015 Ford Mustang 2.3L

Use This Post Clip for Email

The K&N 63-2589 AirCharger air intake system replaces the restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing on some Ford Mustang models. K&N air intakes are designed to dramatically reduce air intake restriction as well as smooth and straighten air flow. This allows your engine to inhale a larger amount of air than the factory air filter assembly. More air means more usable power and acceleration throughout the engine’s RPM range. The 63-2589 air intake comes with a chrome-topped K&N high-flow air filter and a heat shield that installs into the original air box space. Air is directed through an aerodynamically engineered intake tube into the engine’s throttle body for guaranteed power gain. The tube accommodates the factory crank case vent hose and air inlet temperature sensor as well as the blow-off valve. The oversized cone-shaped air filter can be used for up to 100,000 miles before servicing is needed, depending on driving conditions. This air intake is relatively easy to install, usually in 90 minutes or less using your vehicle’s existing factory mounting points. The tools needed are a screwdriver, ratchet set and an Allen wrench. This air intake cannot be sold in California. It is not legal for use in California or other states adopting California emission standards.

  • Guaranteed horsepower gain
  • Designed to improve throttle response and engine sound
  • Free-flowing high density polyethylene tube
  • Replaces entire factory air intake system
  • Easy to install, usually in 90 minutes or less
  • K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty
