The product is made for use on camshafts, lifters, pushrods, piston skirts, bolt threads, main and rod bearings.
PPE introduces a brand new, high-capacity oil pan that solves the GM Duramax L5P complete oil drainage problem. The L5P is a powerful workhorse but when you do regular oil changes, the stock GM pan retains over half a quart of the dirtiest oil. This old oil is trapped in the valley of the stock pan and never drains out. It immediately contaminates your fresh oil.
PPE solves that filthy problem with a flat, angled bottom, designed for more complete drainage. The PPE pan’s higher volume holds an additional two quarts of oil. Your engine’s fluid capacity is increased, as well as its thermal stamina, which creates a longer service life. Engine temperatures are further reduced because the PPE L5P Oil Pan is constructed of thick, cast aluminum alloy, designed with internal ribs that add strength and rigidity. Plus, we’ve tapped the side with a convenient NPT port if you want to run a temperature sensor.
Applications: 2017-2019 GM 6.6L L5P Duramax trucks

Bolt Biter is the revolutionary new extraction socket system from Gearwrench.
Bolt Biter grips rusted or rounded fasteners instead of cutting into them, which means that these sockets last 10 times longer than the competition when used with an impact gun. That’s why they carry a lifetime warranty; we built Bolt Biter to match the strength of our traditional impact sockets. Bolt Biter has a bi-directional design that can tighten or re-use a damaged fastener just as well as it can remove it, making it perfect for specialized components. But durability and re-use are just the start. This improved design also seats easily onto the fastener, so you don’t have to swing a mallet under the hood. Fasteners don’t get jammed in the socket – unlike old-school extraction sockets. Bolt Biter even fits a wider range of fasteners, with “minus-size” sockets designed to fit onto fasteners worn down past their original size. Forge Ahead with Bolt Biter, the innovative leader in extraction.
The only completely modular cooling system on the market, Thermo-Flow Modular Coolers expand the cooling capacity of intercoolers, oil cooling systems, transmissions, power steering systems and fuel systems, making them suitable for an endless variety of performance and high-heat applications.
“The Thermo-Flow Modular Coolers’ unique design of cooling fins within the inner and outer surfaces provides maximum cooling efficiency by pulling the heat out of any liquid that passes through them and dissipating it into the ambient air,” said James White of Thermo-Tec. “It’s a cooling system that’s only limited by your imagination.”
Durable, serviceable, expandable and Made in the USA, the patent-pending system was developed so that it can be changed to meet specific requirements and operate in many variable situations. Airflow, the rate of flow of the liquid passing through, the viscosity of the liquid, ambient air temperature and the amount of water vapor in the air are all major factors in determining the performance.

The Gator-Jaw synthetic shackle series is used recreationally and commercially for safely connecting vehicle or equipment recovery ropes and tow straps. The NexGen PRO is made from high modulus polyethylene fiber rope, which is a lighter and safer replacement for heavy steel shackles and hooks. Bubba Rope engineered this new synthetic shackle in a way that eliminates the same rope-weakening splices found in other soft-shackle designs, by using an epoxy rubber slider that slips over the patented knot. The result is a shackle that is flexible enough to wrap around or through almost any pulling point, and with a higher tensile strength than steel.

Repeated hard braking, such as in race conditions, generates a great amount of heat and places the brake fluid under immense pressure. Both conditions can be detrimental to the operation of the brakes, as the brake fluid can boil and become compressible, leading to vapor lock and brake fade. RL-600 is developed to resist these issues and maintain lubricity, compressibility and viscosity under the most extreme conditions at the race track or on the street. Additionally, Red Line’s RL-600 can blend with DOT 3, DOT 4 and DOT 5.1 brake fluids, delivering more responsive and consistent pedal feel.
