Rod Builder Exhaust Kits, Frame Brace Kits, and V-Belt Pulley Kits: The Latest Summit Racing™ Brand Products

What’s the latest from the Summit Racing™ team? They have kits that allow you to build your own custom exhaust at home, braces to strengthen the factory frame of your classic car or truck, and V-belt pulley kits to replace the worn-out originals on your small block Chevy. 

Rod Builder Exhaust Systems
If you have been planning a custom exhaust upgrade for your ride, then check out these Summit Racing™ Rod Builder Exhaust Kits. They have plenty of tubing so you can cut, fit, fabricate, and weld to your heart’s content. Each kit includes:

  • Four 4-foot-long straight sections of tubing
  • Four 180-degree mandrel bends
  • Four 90-degree mandrel bends
  • Four 45-degree mandrel bends
  • Mounting hardware
Wait, there’s more! The systems are available in your choice of 304 and 409 stainless steel as well as aluminized steel. And to make sure you get the right size pipe for your vehicle’s power rating, the Summit Racing™ Rod Builder Exhaust Kits are available in the following diameters: 2¼, 2½, 3, 3 ½, and 4-inch. 

Frame Brace Kits
Not all our favorite whips from yesteryear were good handlers from the factory. However, with a Summit Racing™ Frame Brace Kit on board they can be! The kits are designed for an easy installation and will significantly strengthen the frame of your GM A-body, Tri-5 Chevy, or Chevy pickup for improved handling and a tight, predictable feel. Features include:
  • DOM tubing construction
  • Precision computerized machining and bending
  • Adjustable transmission crossmember for manual transmission and overdrive vehicles
  • Generous openings for dual exhaust pipe routing
  • Exhaust hangers
The Summit Racing™ Frame Brace Kits are available for 1964-72 GM A-bodies, 1955-57 Chevy, and 1963-72 short and long bed Chevy/GMC half-ton trucks. Welding is required for most kits. 

V-Belt Pulley Kits
Not surprisingly, after 40 or more years of service the V-belt pulleys on Chevy small blocks can wear out. What is surprising is the lack of parts available to replace them. That’s why we put together these Summit Racing™ V-Belt Pulley Kits. Each kit includes new crankshaft, water pump, power steering, and alternator pulleys plus engine accessory brackets and mounting hardware because we’re nice like that. 

The Summit Racing™ V-Belt Pulley Kits are available for 1969-86 Chevy 267-400 engines equipped with long water pumps. And just because we know you’d like it, you can get them in your choice of OE-style satin black or chrome-plated finishes.
