DETROIT TRUETRAC LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL

The Detroit Truetrac limited slip differential is now available for 1997-2005 Chrysler 8.25” axles. This model (#912A553) is 29 spline, covers all axle ratios, and it fits C-Clip axles.

The Detroit Truetrac performs like an open differential under normal driving conditions and automatically transfers torque to the wheel with better traction when ground conditions warrant. Because of the helical gear design, maintenance is not required as there are no worn friction plates to replace. For more information, visit www.detroitlocker.com.

MERLIN-X BIG BLOCK CHEVROLET INTAKE MANIFOLD

Due to the increasing popularity of large displacement big block Chevy engines, the engineering team at World Products has developed the new Merlin-X intake manifold especially for 509 and greater cubic inch BBC applications. The Merlin-X intake manifold has been designed expressly for use with large 4500-series Dominator-style carburetors.

Extensive flow bench and dynamometer testing has shown the Merlin-X to provide excellent performance throughout a wide RPM range. Merlin-X 16° intake manifolds are available for both 9.800” and 10.200” deck big block Chevrolet engines. Special manifolds with brass inserts (to thwart corrosion) are available for marine applications. For more information, visit www.worldcastings.com.

THROTTLE-STOP KING DEMON CARBURETOR

The King Demon, the large square-flange carburetor produced by Demon Carburetion, has recently been made available in a throttle-stop version. Equipped with replaceable venturi sleeves, boost venturii, and billet baseplate, the new Throttle-stop King Demon offers metering circuits and a special fuel curve designed for Throttle-stop drag racing.

The chief benefit of this carburetor is its consistency when the throttle stop is engaged and the engine’s ability to accelerate quicker once the throttle stop is disengaged. As a direct replacement for the Holley Dominator, this King Demon is offered in both gasoline and alcohol versions. For more information, visit www.barrygrant.com.
