Whether you’re hitting the lake for a leisurely cruise or some high-speed fun, the 1,050 CFM GEN 3 Marine Ultra Dominator carburetor from Holley excels in fresh or salt water thanks to a corrosion-resistant hard-coat anodized finish atop its aluminum body.

The 0-80903HMB features a patent-pending GEN 3 main body that is 5/16” taller than GEN 2. This added height allows for larger radius air entries that have been optimized by Computational Fluid Dynamics software to deliver smoother flow into the fully machined, big-bore venturii. Other important features include an integrated idle bypass valve, an extended air cleaner flange, 20% more fuel capacity to eliminate starvation, an integrated fuel shelf to maximize aeration, and an internal baffle to control slosh. Every Marine Ultra Dominator carb has been dyno tested to deliver proven performance!

Features

  • All-aluminum construction saves weight.
  • Gray anodized finish protects against corrosion.
  • Optimized for today’s larger race engines and new fuels.
  • 12-hole billet booster inserts for superior atomization and crisp throttle response.
  • More durable metering blocks.
  • Dual 50cc accelerator pumps.
  • 20% more fuel capacity.
  • Dual clear sight windows for easy fuel adjustments.
  • Integrated drain plug for convenient contents evacuation.
  • Eight inlet threads for plumbing options.
  • Idle screws allow easy adjustments without tools.
  • Adjustable for 1:1 progressive or soft progressive throttle activation.
  • 100% wet-flow tested, so it’s ready to run.

Now available with 2.5” outlets, these LS exhaust manifolds from Hooker offer improved flow and hug the engine block to be suitable for a variety of replacement and engine-swap applications. Their contoured design shunts the exhaust directly to the exit port for improved flow, while the cast-iron construction offers years of leak-free performance—with less under-hood noise than traditional headers. Plus, their shorty design means you can route exhaust tubing close to your frame/floor pan for maximum ground clearance.

Five finishes available: Natural Cast (8502HKR), Silver Ceramic (8502-1HKR), Black Ceramic (8502-3HKR), Titanium Ceramic (8502-4HKR), and Cast Iron Gray Ceramic (8502-5HKR).

Features

  • For GM LS engine swap applications where durability, quiet operation, and leak-free sealing is desired.
  • 5” outlet diameter for improved flow.
  • Nickel-plated steel mating flanges, MLS mating flange gaskets, and mating flange hardware included.
  • High-silicon/moly ductile iron for durability and corrosion resistance.
  • Tight tuck design fits most popular chassis and offers a clean muscle car appearance.
  • Perfect complement to Hooker engine swap mount plates and Holley engine swap oil pans.
  • Five finishes: as-cast or four colored ceramic coatings.

For use in both diesel and gasoline engines, Max-Atomizer from Royal Purple is a fully synthetic, highly concentrated, high-performance fuel injector cleaner. It is specially formulated to solve problems with today’s direct-injection engines, but can be used with any type of fuel injection. Max-Atomizer’s polyether amine (PEA) detergents quickly clean clogged and coked injectors to completely restore flow.

Additionally, Max-Atomizer is the only fuel injector cleaner that also stabilizes ethanol, which chemically breaks down to harm engines.

Features

  • Restores fuel economy and stabilizes ethanol.
  • Maximizes horsepower and improves responsiveness.
  • Will not harm vehicle emissions equipment.
  • EPA/CARB-compliant.
  • Recommended for all ethanol blends.
