A properly operating/prepared Thermoquad is very tough to beat.

In an effort to introduce ambient air, many designs create dramatically higher pressure drop and the result is degraded performance rather than any actual benefit. The air cleaner lids with media incorporated are almost always a significant drawback. The booster signal is degraded and negative...

I'm okay with the TruStart/Compulink worst red loses.

What those two scenarios share in common is that neither are desirable! Fortunately, there is always "mechanical error" to explain them away. Two-step, brake, etc. I recall that on one occasion, I had a bee in the car.........? Fans and even most racers think .001 red is indicative of a...

What's embarrassing for us old guys is the humiliating "LB3A".

New N96 Air Grabber hood scoop screens for 1969 applications. I've had these wrapped up and stored in the shop for 25-30 years, assuming I'd use them on the next Air Grabber car I purchased. Well, that never happened. $150.00 and local pickup may be best so that they are not damaged in...

Thanks to all. The 440 Satellite was a unique car and the cruise night attendees always enjoyed it. It was a fun car to drive. It's in Australia now. We may have a few NOS parts left over from the Rebel Machines. I know we have a new right lower door hinge.
