MEGUIAR’S METAL POLISHING

hether you have a neglected front grille or a brand-new set of custom wheels, Meguiar’s has the solution to restore your automotive metal parts back to their glory days. Meguiar’s Metal Polishing Program offers a full range of affordable products designed to safely and simply eliminate common metal problems such as oxidation, scratches and pitting.

Just like with sandpaper, when fixing a surface you must first evaluate how deep the damage is and how much cut you will need to restore the surface. In the same way, Meguiar’s Metal Program offers varying degrees of cut from fine to heavy. Products can be used individually or together as a system depending on metal condition and desired finish.

T-REX TORCH SERIES LED GRILLES

T-Rex Products announces the launch of its all-new Torch series grilles. T-Rex has integrated high-power LED light bars into its iconic X-Metal grilles to create the perfect blend of performance and style, delivering the biggest bang-for-your-buck upgrade to come along in decades. High-quality light bars are expensive and custom mounting equipment and installation can end up costing more than the lights themselves. With T-Rex’s Torch series grilles, installing high-power off-road lights is as simple as installing a new grille.

Torch series grilles have been carefully designed to provide the greatest possible light output without compromising grille functionality or creating complex installation challenges. And most Torch series grilles incorporate a combination of flood and spotlights to illuminate the darkest of nights. No more guessing about how to mount your lights or searching for a shop to fabricate a solution. Torch series grilles come fully assembled and ready to mount. Simply install the grilles and wire up the lights. Torch series grilles are backed by T-Rex Products’ industry-leading, limited lifetime material and workmanship warranty.

TRANS-DAPT V-8 SBC S10 SWAP-IN-A-BOX

Figuring out how to stuff a big engine into a small vehicle is the essence of hot-rodding. But who says hot-rodding should be limited to cars? Though the pint-sized Chevy S10 pickup never came with a V-8 option, Trans-Dapt has made the task of swapping in a 1955-79 small-block Chevy a much simpler task with its V-8 Into S10 engine Swap-in-a-Box kits.

Trans-Dapt’s new kit makes swapping a small-block Chevy into your 1982-2004 2WD or 4WD S10/S15 a piece of cake. Pooling the resources of the Hedman Performance Group, these kits come with everything needed to perform a complete engine swap. From Hedman Hedders, a set of 1 ½-inch shorty headers are designed to ensure proper clearance in the S10’s engine bay while maximizing exhaust flow for increased power and efficiency. Trans-Dapt motormounts and pads are also included in the kit, and were developed alongside the headers toensure proper fitment. Finally, from Hamburger’s Performance, a new 7-quart, high- performance oil pan with pickup was designed to clear the S10’s front cross member. The pan’s integrated crankshaft scraper, windage tray and trap door baffles ensure the new engine receives a steady flow of engine oil, even under harsh competition conditions.

Two-wheel-drive S10/V-8 Swap-in-a-Box kits are available for first generation Chevy small-blocks with factory, angle plug or D-port heads; while 4WD kits are available for factory heads only. Each Swap-in-a-Box kit offers you the option of Hedman’s standard-duty uncoated, standard-duty ceramic coated or Elite heavy- duty headers. The headers in these kits have an integrated ball-and-socket flange on the collector to provide a durable, gasket-free seal. All mounting hardware, gaskets and installation instructions are included with each kit.
