Cool RennSpeed Racing - New products, new prices - check it out!

First up, I have a couple new products - those of you familiar with the hatch pins will recognize the first one.

http://www.rennspeedracing.com/ss_hood_pins.html

It's of the same construction as the hatch pin as far as machining and material. It replaces the factory hood hold-down pin that is nasty looking with a shiney new stainless one that will never rust.


The second thing is not that big of a deal, but still wanted to throw it out there.

http://www.rennspeedracing.com/tshirts.html

I had some t-shirts made for myself to wear to track events/meets so people could identify me as that guy from RennSpeed. I made a whole bunch of them to get the price down and they turned out better than I could have imagined! Testarossa_td did the artwork, every where I go I get compliments on the design.


Also, I changed the we I manufacture my various stainless studs - for the better. I was able to put together a tool to broach the hex key on the lathe as well as began using a different stock size..........what this all means is that I was able to eliminate a lot of time and waste material. This makes it less expensive for me to manufacture, and I am passing those savings strait on to you. I have also phased-out the non-broached studs. I didn't have very many left in-stock and now that it's just as easy to produce the broached ones........they became obsolete.

I need some more studs Dan, but this instead is for the intake side of the 32V head. Should I send some sampes?

Mike Simard has some ideas on Stud manufacturing for our engines Dan. He suggests less thread, and a smooth body where there is the most stress.

Could you make these, or is the heat treating just too much work?

Heat treating I can do - I just need to know exactly how you wanted it treated.........i.e. what state to treat it to.

Those need to be lighter.

You know how heavy our cars are already!

The whole reason for stainless is so it does not rust. Carbon steel IS stronger, but since the torque value for exhaust nuts is 15ft-lbs, it is not a problem in the least bit.........
