Stops Strong-Lasts Long
Cross-drilled disc brake rotors look cool and keep their cool . . . most of the time. Too many times they develop fatigue cracks right near those drilled-in cooling holes. That's why Stainless Steel Brakes (SSBC) came up with a highperformance metal alloy that makes their new Big Bite Cross-Drilled Rotors such strong stoppers. Thanks to SSBC's researchers, Big Bite's composition reduces heat-related stress and maximizes durability. That means they resist cracking near the precision-drilled holes that vent super-heated gases and eliminate brake fade by reducing operating temperatures up to 200F over original equipment rotors. This cross-drilling also helps dissipate water for better performance and safety in the wet. Big Bite's precision Turbo slotting cleans the pad surface, maximizing grip and reducing brake squeal. They're zinc-electroplated to prevent rust and maintain a new-out-of-thebox shine over the life of the rotor.

Beat The Under Hood Heat
Your Vette's underhood wiring, hoses, and cables have a big enough job as it is, and radiant heat from your engine doesn't make their jobs any easier- unless you wrap them in Thermo-Tec's new Express Sleeves.
Available in 1 1/2-inch-diameter lengths from 3 feet to 50 feet, Express Sleeves' insulated sleeving is a combination of a high-temperature insulation material and a highly reflective Mylar foil with a Velcro closure. Simply pull apart the material, wrap around the cable, wire, or hose, and reclose the sleeving. Express Sleeves insulated sleeving reflects over 90-percent of radiant heat, is fireproof and fire resistant, and looks good doing it.
