Wilwood 805-388-1188 www.wilwood.com Silent Ride Timbren Industries recently introduced two new 7K Silent Ride trailer suspensions. The unique combination of a metal control arm with two Aeon rubber springs per side creates a suspension that rides smoothly whether loaded or unloaded. And its rugged construction ensures that it will stand up under the most challenging road conditions. The long-travel suspension of the tandem setup increases stability, keeping all four tires on the ground regardless of terrain. The ride is so quiet and smooth you’ll think you’re riding on air! Part # SR7733T (tandem-axle suspension) comes with extra carrying capacity ideal for 7KRV trailers. Part # SR7K31T (tandem-axle suspension) has been designed with a shorter axle spread ideal for use with smaller tires such as 185R14Cor 195R14C. Timbren Industries 800-263-3113 www.timbren.com Throwing Darts Dart Machinery, which celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2021, has introduced a redesigned and improved SHP Series cylinder head for small block Chevy muscle car and street rod applications. Based on the popular 23-degree valve angle configuration, it features revised port designs to deliver significant power improvements at budget friendly affordability. Manufactured using a proprietary process employing permanent molds and a dense aluminum alloy, the intake and exhaust runners, plus the combustion chamber, are exceptionally smooth as-cast. This provides excellent power gains at optimum cost efficiency. The SHP Series heads are available from Dart in bare form or completely assembled. Bare heads come with powder metal seats, multi-angle valve jobs, magnesium-bronze valve guides and 0.530-inch seals. Assembled heads include Manley stainless steel intake and exhaust valves (7- or 10-degree retainers), choice of 1.250-, 1.437- or 1.550-inch valve springs to complement the camshaft design, Viton valve seals, hardened spring cups, a Dart two-piece guide plate and ARP rocker arm studs. Dart Machinery 248-362-1188 www.dartheads.com Ultimate Strength! The Neapco Performance Series line of universal joints (U-joints) from Neapco recently completed a battery of tests that clearly demonstrate its superiority to its leading competitor. In the tests, conducted in a laboratory setting to industry-established standards, Neapco Performance Series U-joints outclassed the competitor in all driveline series tested. Tests include measuring for ultimate strength, low-cycle fatigue and high-cycle fatigue. In several of the tests, Neapco Performance Series U-joint results were 2X, 3X or higher compared to those of the leading competitor. The Neapco Performance Series U-joints achieve this performance advantage with an optimized thrust washer design to reduce resistance under load, a needle spacer for better stress distribution, ultra-performance grease that provides optimal high-temperature durability and water resistance, a highly engineered “quad-lip” seal that eliminates the need for dust caps, and a trunnion with a larger diameter and smooth transitions for exceptional strength and load distribution.
