                                                                                                LUBRICANTS

This is a premium assembly lube with MoS2 used in assembling engines.  Through our testing, we have found this assembly lube to have a very high
 load carrying ability that provides a superior film barrier on bearings, cam and crankshafts, gears, pushrods and lifters when used during assembly. 
 It greatly protects new engines under startup conditions.

                                                        TILTON SUPER STARTER

These super starters are of a full ball bearing construction not affected by most hot or cold conditions.  A low (250 amp) current draw allows
more spark for firing the motor.  The 3.75:1 gear reduction Super Starter produces 50% more torque than OEM starters.  It is less than 2/3 the
size of OEM starters with a total weight of approximately 10.5 lbs as opposed to 17 lbs for OEM starters.  Because if this, more header, pan and
frame clearance is easily obtained.  All electrical connections are siliconed and the armature is epoxy encapsulated for increased vibration resistance
and dependability.  Gaskets and seals are found throughout for moisture resistance.  Super Starters are plated and painted to look as good as they
perform.

                                        SFI FLEX PLATE SHIELD / MIDMOUNT

Mid Mount gif.gif (4786 bytes)The ultimate in safety and a first of it's kind!  Recommended for all forms of racing and street performance.  This shield
is unique because of it's 360° containment, and most important because it fits inside the bell housing, sandwiched
 between the engine and the transmission.  Because of the safety minded design, the flex plate fragments will be contained
 before they have a chance to exit the bell housing.   At the same time, it functions as a mid mount, giving extra support
 and protection to the engine and transmission.
