Pre-Lubers, U-Joints, and Power Brake Conversions: Check Out These Summit Racing Brand Products

Our Summit Racing product experts are always busy developing new products. Here are three you should take a look at:

Summit Racing™ Engine Pre-Luber
Breaking in a new or freshly rebuilt engine? Make sure you prime or prelube it—most engine wear occurs at cold startup when there is no oil cushion to keep the internal metal bits from grinding into each other. The Summit Racing™ Engine Pre-Luber is designed to get that oil flowing before startup. That will extend your expensive race engine’s life and make starting easier.

The Summit Racing Pre-Luber is easy to use. Simply connect the included hose to the block (after the oil filter), fill the tank with four quarts of oil, and pressurize the tank with up to 100 pounds of air pressure. Features include:
• USA-made 2.5 gallon aluminum tank and fittings
• 120 pound pressure release valve
• Non-marring nylon braided hose with swivel fittings on both ends—no need to turn the tank upside down to position it
• 0-200 psi pressure gauge
• Full size fill cap, 1.25 in. hole size
• Ball valve shut-off valve
• Full-depth dip tube

You can see how the Summit Racing Pre-Luber works in this video at our OnAllCylinders blog.

Summit Racing™ U-Joints
Clunking, clanging, intense vibrations at high speed. Those are pretty good indications that a U-joint has decided to permanently retire from service. Fortunately for you, Summit Racing™ U-Joints are the cure. Built to meet or exceed OEM standards, the U-joints feature forged and case-hardened alloy steel crosses for long life. The bearing cups are also case-hardened for strength and durability, and high-quality seals keep contaminants out. Each U-joint has a grease fitting in the cross body for easy maintenance.

Available Types: 1310, 1310-WJ, 1344, 1350, 1480-WJ, 1310-to-1330 conversion, 1310-to-1350 conversion

Summit Racing™ Power Brake Conversion Kits
Upgrading your classic to dual circuit power brakes is a smart idea. Many of our favorite classic vehicles relied on a single-circuit braking system for stopping power. It was marginal even back in the day—a system failure meant losing all four brakes.

A Summit Racing™ Power Brake Conversion Kit gives you an extra measure of safety. They feature a cast iron dual reservoir master cylinder. That means if the front or rear brakes go out, the remaining set of brakes will be available to slow you down. The conversion kits also include a brand new vacuum booster, mounting hardware, and necessary components like a pedal rod extension.
