New at Summit Racing: OTB Gear Hot Rod Accessories

Retro, old school, classic—whatever term you use, hot rods built in 1940s and ‘50s style sure are popular. Building a car or truck that’s true to that style means paying careful attention to the parts used. Bolt on a modern-looking air cleaner or set of valve covers on an ‘era-correct’ car and people will definitely voice their opinion.

You can avoid that by using OTB Gear accessories. It makes all sort of parts that are faithful to the old school vibe. It’s high quality stuff, too—OTB Gear designs and manufactures each piece.

Summit Racing carries a nice selection of OTB Gear products including:

Air Cleaners
Whether you run carburetors or throttle body EFI. OTB Gear makes an air cleaner to fit your induction system. Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, most air cleaners are fitted with OTB’s Platinum Series filter elements with stainless steel mesh that sparkles in the sunlight. Choose from 11 designs for the following:
• Stromberg 94/97/98 carburetors
• Single two-barrel and four-barrel carburetors
• TWM/Borla, Inglese, and Imagine throttle body EFI

Remote Fluid Reservoirs
Plastic reservoir on your hot rod? Never. OTB Gear’s remote fluid reservoirs are ideal for brake and hydraulic clutches and can be plumbed from the back or the bottom. That makes it easier to mount one where you want it. The aluminum reservoirs are available in single, double, and triple versions with a satin or polished finish.

Gauge Panels
OTB makes two types of gauge panels:
The Bomber Series five- and six-gauge panels feature a quarter-inch thick aluminum baseplate that can be fitted with a smooth aluminum or engine turned stainless steel faceplate. You attach a faceplate to the base with stainless steel rivets. That allows you to paint or anodize the faceplate without having to take the panel apart. Your choice of B-17 oval or B-24 rectangular panels that accept 3 3/8 and 2 1/16 inch diameter gauges.

The cast gauge panels are made from aircraft quality cast aluminum with a deeply finned design. The valleys between the fins have a textured finish that readily accepts paint to produce a contrasting finish. The oval in-dash panels are available in five-and six-gauge versions that fit any flat dash surface. Summit Racing has matching underdash panels that hold one, two, three, or four 2 1/16 inch diameter gauges.

Engine Oil Dipsticks
OTB Gear dipsticks feature a polished aluminum knob and a natural or chrome plated tube. Choose from classic acorn, 1940s style, or sprocket knob designs. Dipsticks are available for small block Chevy, big block Chevy, and small block Ford.

Summit Racing also carries OTB Gear fuel filters, radiator caps, valve covers and breathers, differential covers, overflow tanks, and even slingshot style dual carb manifolds for Ford flathead V8s.
