’63-’72 C10 Rear Coilover Conversion

Performance Online’s ’63-’72 Chevy C10 truck rear coilover conversion kit uses Aldan American Phantom Series coilovers, single adjustable coilovers that deliver superior handling and ride quality for a drastic improvement over stock suspension. They’re serviceable and rebuildable, too.

High tensile coil springs are designed as a direct fit into Performance Online’s upper coilover shock mounts. Ride-height adjustability lowers the vehicle 5-6 inches lower than stock height. Great for street applications.

The lower shock rear location brackets bolt onto the rear of the lower trailing arms, on the back side of the rearend. The upper brackets bolt into the factory-style reinforced upper shock mounting locations.

The kit can be installed using only basic hand tools. There’s no cutting or welding needed. It’s 100% made in the USA.

Complete Control

The RidePRO E5 control system tunes air-ride suspension for proper handling and world-class ride quality by way of sophisticated pressure and height algorithms. Each time you turn the ignition key, RidePRO E5 self-adjusts to ride height and compensates for changes in load. Whether you are driving alone to work or on your way to a show with a car or truck load of friends, RidePro E5 will calculate proper air spring rate and balance, and then work diligently in the background to maintain proper spring pressures and vehicle height. The full color TFT LCD. 3.5-inch display with capacitive touchscreen makes interacting with the control system quick and easy. Adjusting vehicle height is as simple as choosing one of three presets. Connect a compatible smartphone via Bluetooth and use the RidePRO E5 app to control the system wirelessly.

LT1 and LS Front Runners

Some of the hottest new crate OEM installs are the newest GM LS and LT1 engines. Now, Vintage Air produces the shortest LS and LT1 drive systems available that provide added clearance for electric fan packages. These new Front Runner units offer additional intake/throttle body clearance obtained by lowering the water pump 1 inch and tightening accessory mounting positions. This is the company’s elegant solution for custom air conditioning, alternator and power steering mounting.

SquareTanks!

Airbag setups generally use a boring cylinder air tank with plumbing and wiring around that awkward obstacle. Now with the introduction of the SquareTank, the focus of the install can be beautiful!

Along with high-quality billet endcaps, there are a total of six 3/8-inch NPT ports, two 1/8-inch NPT ports and two 1/8-inch dump ports spread between the pair. They also contain mounting points that allow users to bolt the Original SquareTank such that all the ports are visible for a tricky looking install or hide them all away for a completely stealth appearance.

The endcaps sandwich a tank body that’s not only amazing to look at, but powerful, as well. This composite tube is rated to hold over 200 psi, which means they’re up to any of the demanding tasks that an airbag installer or user may want.

Although the raw surface of the Original SquareTank is beautiful on its own, customers can opt for a couple Cerakote finishes, Tungsten or Jet Black. These are available for each component, which means there are over 196 different finish possibilities for the Original SquareTank right from the manufacturer, and even more if customers decide to paint or wrap their composite tubes themselves.

The Original SquareTank is available in both a 20-inch long, 3-gallon version, or 30-inch long 5-gallon. Prices start at $255 for a raw finish 3-gallon model and go up to $445 for a completely custom finished 5-gallon Original SquareTank.

“GMC” Horn Button

Auto Metal Direct has metal and so much more. The company’s newest development shows the GMC folks a little love. This reproduction center steering wheel horn button with GMC logo is for the ’78-’91 GMC C/K Squarebody pickup, Jimmy and Suburban. Made like OE on all new tooling, each piece is manufactured in injection-molded plastic and features the correct leather grain vinyl covering and red GMC letters on black backing with brushed aluminum accents, like the original.

Blazer Grille

Auto Metal Direct is the closest you can get to an OE original grille for your Squarebody. The company’s latest offering is the newly developed grille shell for ’89-’91 Chevy Squarebody Blazer and Suburban with dual headlights. It’s a perfect replacement for your factory grille or for you guys looking to convert your front end.

Until now, most grilles have been the cheap crash parts versions that have been produced for the last 30 years and are totally clapped out. AMD knows that these trucks deserve much more and have reproduced an OE-correct grille that’s far superior to anything else out on the market. This grille has an excellent fit and finish, comes with the grille nut inserts and is a GM licensed product.

Small Block Big Power

Trick Flow’s Track Heat intake manifold is just the ticket. Its one-piece spider-type design features extended high-flow runners and a raised plenum floor to increase power in the 3,000 to 7,000 rpm range — right where a street or mild race engine needs it most.

The Track Heat intake is dyno-optimized for Trick Flow’s PowerPort 190-cylinder heads, but it works well with most aftermarket cylinder heads. Trick Flow added extra material around the port openings for custom port matching, plus bosses that can be drilled for nitrous nozzles. Mmm, nitrous.

The Trick Flow Track Heat intake manifold accepts any 4150-style square bore carburetor. With a carburetor mounting pad height of 5.125 inches, the manifold should fit under most hoods.
