This thing we call the intertube is really cool. I’ve been researching doing an LS1 swap into my ‘84 Chevy truck, and after a quick Google search I found a site that not only sells all the parts for the swap, but details the build every step of the way. Street & Performance offers motor […]

Brakes: we all need ‘em, but sometimes a bulky vacuum booster or hydroboost just looks janky on the firewall.  With its small footprint, ABS Power Brakes’ electric high-power brake booster provides an elegant solution.  

At next week’s CES show, Directed Electronics will unveil their new security and remote start systems. Right now we know the remotes are substantially thinner, with a range of 2,000 feet, and the system’s supposed to be easier to install. On their site they’ve slapped up some specs and renderings that look very, very cool.

Points suck — they do nothing for performance or your sanity. Really. If you’re notalgic for ‘em, we feel sorry for you. The good news: if you have an older GM, Ford, or Mopar V8 with single point distributors (or, God forbid, dual point AC/Delco distributors) Accel has the gear you need to get rid of […]

Want to see and be seen on your bike? Try adding a Xenon HID headlight with this kit from Xenonlink. It’s a bolt-on, plug in solution — for just $100.

Most cars today ship with good ‘ole DOT-approved headlights, complete with low and high beams, and even have fog lights as standard or optional equipment. They are, to be blunt, useless. I’ve never found them to put out enough light, and the light is too dispersed to be useful. And fog? Fuggetaboutit. That’s why I […]

The resto-mod craze is in full swing, folks, and air conditioning is at the top of any southern-dweller’s “mod” list. Vintage Air has more or less defined the category of vintage air conditioning systems, because until they came along you were more or less stuck hacking up your interior (and firewall, too) to install a […]
