Summit Racing™ Headers
Our Summit Performance® headers are manufactured from mandrel-bent tubing for superior flow and greater horsepower. The headers feature a pressure-formed collector for a better flow rate and a JIG-welded tube-to-flange plate for a perfect fit. They're made for off-road and racing use only. Unless otherwise noted, these headers are designed to fit the vehicle as it came from the manufacturer. This includes components like cylinder heads, chassis, steering, motor mounts, body mounts and bushings, etc. If your vehicle is using aftermarket components, parts from other applications, or custom-altered parts, then it is the installer's responsibility to verify fitment. The headers are available in a wide range of styles, sizes, and configurations. Order the pair recommended for your application. (Special warning regarding Summit Racing™ painted headers only. The paint on these headers is not designed as a final finish; it is designed to protect the headers after the manufacturing process and during shipping. This paint will not withstand the high heat associated with engine break-in, nor will it withstand the heat cycles associated with any type of driving. It is recommended that this protective coating be stripped, and a high heat paint or coating designed for use on headers be applied.)

Coker Classic Star Series Whitewall Tires
Coker Classic Star Series Whitewall tires are modern radials with best-in-class speed, load and traction ratings. They feature stylish whitewalls, which are built into the tires from Day One—delivering the perfect look for your classic car. The whitewalls fit many American and European classic cars from the 1960 and earlier. Star Series tire ratings help them to provide excellent treadwear, traction, and temperature control. Another best-in-class rating is the T speed rating (118 mph), as well as XL load rating, thanks to a reinforced sidewall. The low-noise tread looks and performs nicely; and these tires are DOT approved and E-marked for the European market. You won't find a better whitewall radial tire on the market! * Best-in-class traction: Star Series tires feature Grade-A traction and temperature ratings, meaning you can expect excellent handling and traction on wet and dry roads. They're engineered to outperform all other whitewall tires, and feature a 480 AA UTQG rating for long-lasting tread life and unbeatable traction. This makes your classic car safer to drive in all weather conditions and improves your driving experience. * Star Series tires are engineered with a reinforced sidewall to better support the weight of classic cars. This reinforcement gives the tire Extra Load (XL) rating, meaning added safety and a long-lasting sidewall that won't break down over time. * Star Series tires feature a genuine wide whitewall sidewall style. This means that the bright white rubber is added directly to the tire sidewall during initial construction of the carcass, resulting in a truly integrated, high-quality product after vulcanization. Wide whitewall tires were a very popular choice from the 1930s through the end of the 1950s, and were eventually phased out of mainstream production by 1962. Originally, wide whitewall tires featured a bias ply construction, but now Coker Tire offers them in original style bias ply and modern radial construction. * T Speed rated: Up to 118 mph (190 km/h). Often required OE for higher performance trim level classic automobiles. * Available in a wide range of sizes

Holley Sniper OE Style 255 LPH EFI Fuel Pump Modules
Holley Sniper offers OE-style 255 lph EFI fuel pump modules for a wide range of vehicles, including many Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile, GMC, Ford, Mercury, Jeep, Dodge and Plymouth cars and trucks from the 1950s, '60s, '70s, and '80s. These in-tank modules are high-pressure units that flow 255 liters per hour (LPH) and are capable of supporting electronic fuel injection (EFI) engines producing up to 550 hp. A pre-calibrated fuel level sending unit designed to work with the factory fuel gauge for this application is included. Each module also features a HydraMat filter which has a unique internal reservoir that keeps fuel available at the pick-up and also provides protection from contaminates. Fuel pressure is internally regulated to 58 psi, eliminating the added expense and effort of purchasing and installing an external fuel pressure regulator; no separate return line is required because these modules return excess fuel right inside the tank! The Holley Sniper EFI fuel pump module was designed as a direct replacement for your factory pick-up and sending unit. There's no need to purchase a custom EFI fuel tank. You can even retain the factory fuel hard line—just connect the outlet of the pump module to the hard line on your vehicle with EFI-rated fuel hose and hose clamps available in the Earls Vapor Guard line.
