Spark It Up
RHS-spec Zex & Champion Spark Plugs
Recognizing that optimum performance requires the right spark plug, Racing Head Service now has application-specific spark plugs for its lineup of high-performance aluminum and cast-iron cylinder heads. Zex High Performance spark plugs, intended for street-performance applications, feature Igniter Core Technology, which allows them to conduct electricity more than five times better than platinum and nearly three times better than iridium. This results in more spark energy and greater detonation resistance. Champion, on the other hand, has created a line of specially designed racing plugs for RHS, available in an assortment of heat ranges. These plugs incorporate Heat-Active alloy, resulting in maximum heat dissipation and conductivity to maintain stable operating temps.

S/S and H/O Series Fuel Pumps with AN-8 Ports
Aeromotive has expanded its carbureted fuel-delivery product line, introducing the AN-8 S/S Series Carbureted Fuel Pump and the AN-8 High Output (H/O) Billet Carbureted Fuel Pump. The AN-8 H/O is internally regulated to 7 psi, draws less than 5 amps at 12 volts while flowing over 90 gph at 5 psi, and should not require a regulator for most carbureted applications. The AN-8 S/S Series Fuel Pump flows more than 140 gph and produces 14 psi line pressure; the S/S requires either a deadhead-or bypass-style regulator. Both pumps feature 6061-T651 billet aluminum bodies outfitted with stainless steel and high-grade composite internal components for long-term durability.

Odyssey Deep Cycle Battery
EnerSys' newest battery, the Odyssey 65-PC1750, offers the benefits of two separate batteries in one box, combining deep cycle capability with five-second cranking power. The battery's deep cycle capability creates a quick charge characteristic, while the five-second cranking power is double to triple that of conventional batteries, according to EnerSys. This 12-volt dry-cell battery will operate at full capacity at temperatures as low as -40 degrees F. The Odyssey 65-PC1750 features 930 cold-cranking amps, a deep cycle capability of 400 cycles at 80 percent depth of discharge, and a 140-minute reserve capacity. It's corrosion-, explosion- and leakproof as well as vibration resistant; it's also covered by a four-year warranty.
