DOUBLE THE CARBS
A HUGE hit among street rodders, these Edelbrock RPM Dual-Quad
& Carb Kits offer the ultimate set-up for anyone who wants the look
and performance of dual-quad carbs. They include an Edelbrock
RPM or RPM Air-Gap dual-quad intake manifold and two 500cfm
Thunder Series AVS carburettors calibrated specifically for dual-quad
applications (one manual choke, one electric choke). To make the
installation simple, these kits also include a high-tech progressive
throttle linkage, Russell fuel inlet and high-quality Edelbrock intake
gaskets. The manifold and Thunder Series carbs are available with a
standard satin finish or with Edelbrock’s bright EnduraShine chrome-
like finish for long-lasting show-quality looks. For more information

RAISING THE T-BAR
THE Toolmaster hex- and Torx-key sets are an essential for every toolbox or
workshop. The free-spinning aluminium sleeve allows the T-bar handle to
continuously rotate, making loosening or tightening screws quick and easy.
The T-bar handle can also slide through the main body left or right, enabling
greater leverage if required. These key sets come in metric hex, imperial hex
or Torx. Made from chrome-vanadium steel with durable black phosphate-
finish steel tips, all three sets come with a metal storage holder that can be
mounted to the wall. For more information call into your local Hare & Forbes
Machineryhouse, or visit machineryhouse.com.au.
BRIGHT SPARK
BRISK Silver Racing sparkplugs offer better performance and reliability in
high-boost, nitrous or high-compression applications. GR14S and GR14YS
plugs are designed for forced-induction and nitrous applications in GM LS
engines, and are replacements equivalent to NGK heat range 6 and 7-style
sparkplugs. The Brisk Silver Racing plugs have a fine-wire centre electrode
(not just the tip), which gives more room for the insulator between the centre
electrode and sparkplug shell. More insulation results in a durable sparkplug
with high dielectric strength – the most important sparkplug parameter in
forced-induction applications. For further information call VCM Performance on
(03) 9763 7599 or visit vcmstore.com.au.

BUMP AND GRIND
EARLY Falcons from XR to XG are not known for their positive or
comfortable steering, but that can now be rectified with these
beaut new tie-rods from Stubtech. Longer in the tapered neck than
a factory tie-rod, they correct the bump steer so prevalent in these
models, and are available at just $100 a pair. For more information
or to purchase, contact Rod Hadfield at Stubtech on (03) 5472 3868
or 0428 122 206. You can also email [email protected] or visit
