Diesel Power

Detail That Frame
Eastwood's 2K Ceramic Chassis Black imbeds finely ground ceramic particles into a two-component urethane base. This produces a chip- and chemical- resistant coating that will stand up against the harsh UV rays of the sun. This coating is easily applied with an HVLP spray gun with a 1.5 to 1.7 size nozzle. If you don't have a spray gun you can pick one up from Eastwood as well.

Universal Mufflers
Aero Performance Products' new STX line of mufflers contains Aeroturbine technology intertwined with a high-heat ceramic packing that cancels in-cab resonance and does away with internal muffler blow-outs. The muffler reduces backpressure by freeing up the exhaust and drops exhaust gas temperatures so your engine can breathe easier.
