Running On Empty
Bruce Horkey's Wood and Parts now offers these new die-formed, USA-made, stamped steel running boards for '48-52 Ford pickups. The first thing you'll notice is the crisp embossment details and the heavy under-bracing, just like the originals. They come ready for paint or chrome plating. Horkey's also carries steel running boards for the '47-54 Chevrolet 1/2-ton pickups and panel trucks, featuring the same USA-made quality.

Cover Up
Hamburger's Performance Products now offers a selection of fabricated aluminum valve covers for popular Chevy and Ford applications. The tall design offers clearance for rocker arm assemblies and stud girdles, typically found in high-performance engines. The covers are available with or without baffles and breather holes, and all models are built using super lightweight yet durable 6061-T6 aluminum, and employ sturdy 1/4-inch billet flanges for a leak-free seal.

Pipe Down
Classic Tube has mandrel-bent and straight-length stainless steel tubing parts that can be ordered individually, or in a 12-piece DIY exhaust kit. The kit contains two 5-foot straight lengths, two 15-degree bends, two 45-degree bends, four 90-degree bends, and two 180-degree bends. This kit can be ordered in 2.5-inch, 3-inch, or 3.5-inch diameters. Classic Tube uses 16-gauge (0.065) tubing made from high-quality 304 stainless steel, which combines excellent durability properties with incredible resistance to the corrosive agents found in exhaust emissions. Straight lengths are available in 3/4-inch to 5-inches od, depending on the angle and various leg lengths. For the show-quality look, these tubes can be polished to a high luster by the end user.
