Aftermarket Daily News 1 5 Tuesday, November 1, 2016 MEET YOUR PERFORMANCE NEEDS WITH FIDANZA PERFORMANCE Fidanza Performance is a premier fly- wheel manufacturer that boasts more than 700 flywheel applications and 130 performance clutch applications. For decades, Fidanza has been known as a leader in manufacturing lightweight alu- minum flywheels. However, Fidanza offers much more than that. Fidanza has several other performance lines including twin disc clutches, adjustable cam gears and short throw shifters. Fidanza recently stepped into the twin disc clutch market with an initial offering for the LS engines, which has been a huge success. The second offering has been releases for the 4.6L mod motor, famously found in the Ford Mustang. Fidanza also offers a full line-up of single disc clutches for both the import and domestic markets. Keep an eye out for Fidanza's new line-up of Chromoly fly- wheels for both domestic and import applications in the New Products display this year at SEMA. Having the right products for each market segment is a key to Fidanza's success. Fidanza takes pride in offering quality prod- ucts that will withstand the abuse a serious racer can dish out. Its dedica- tion and commitment to designing and manufac- turing the best quality parts is unsurpassed. While many companies are using lower grade materials to save money, Fidanza continues to use high-grade materials. Additional quality control steps are often taken, such as heat treating and SFI Certification. A lot goes into Fidanza products (many which customers never see) to ensure safety and customer satis- faction. This commitment to excellence has resulted in provid- ing racers with champi- onship wins. With over 11 new product releases in 2015 and 10 more in 2016, Fidanza continues to grow and 2017 will be no exception. Expect to see expansion within its aluminum fly- wheel, short throw shifter and clutch lines. Keep an eye out for new product lines in early 2017.

PERFORMANCE HEADERS & EXHAUST SYSTEMS FROM PACESETTER PaceSetter Performance Products was started in southern California in 1972 and is one of the industry's oldest, most expe- rienced performance aftermarket suppli- ers. Being around and healthy after 44 years certainly says a lot about the com- pany and its products. PaceSetter has positioned itself as a designer and manufacturer of quality- made, affordably-priced headers, per- formance exhaust systems, premium exhaust tips and performance exhaust components for the performance after- market. Its somewhat vertically-integrat- ed operation is headquartered in sunny Phoenix, Arizona, where in approximate- ly 77,000 square feet of manufacturing, warehouse and office space, the company starts with flat stock and tubing and pro- ceeds to machine its own flanges, bend and fabricate tubing and fabricate and weld its own mufflers to be able to achieve its goals. That means PaceSetter's products are made in the U.S.A. PaceSetter's reputation has always been based on its availability of applica- tions that were not considered "main- stream" or for those nobody else would build. For example, headers and exhaust systems for the British roadsters of the '60s – Triumph TR6, Austin Healy Sprite, MG MGB and Midget, Suzuki's Samurai and many VW and Mazda mod- els, including headers and exhaust for Mazda's groundbreaking RX7 rotary. One of the keys to PaceSetter's growth has been its ability to develop new products and applications. For example, some of the new header appli- cations available for 2016 include 2002-2008 Mini Cooper, C5 and C6 Corvettes and the 2016 Chevy Silverado/GMC Sierra. This past year, PaceSetter also introduced a line of long tube headers for GM vehicles fea- turing 1-7/8" diameter primary tubes to supplement its extremely popular lineup with 1-3/4" primaries. All of these recent new products are on display in PaceSetter's booth #22629. PaceSetter's most famous brand, MONZA, was applied to its famous MONZA Premium Exhaust Tips and the MONZA Performance Exhaust Systems for import-brand vehicles and is still strong today. PaceSetter performance headers and exhaust systems are manufactured with 16-gauge steel tubing that is mandrel-bent on computer-controlled benders to ensure consistency of fit, ease of installation and optimized exhaust flow. Each flange is machined from 3/8" thick flange stock and robot-welded for the best seal at the head. Gaskets and all necessary hard- ware, including header bolts where applicable, are included. The outside packaging is double-wall corrugated. Header finishes are a non-high-temp black paint that provides basic protection for the product and the well-known, optional ARMOR*Coat finish, which is a polished metallic-ceramic finish bonded to the metal and rated to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit and available on every header PaceSetter manufactures. ARMOR*Coat won't discolor like paint, chrome or stain- less steel, it reduces under hood tempera- tures, helps the header resist rust and cor- rosion and is guaranteed to not chip, peel or flake for three years.
