PREMIUM
RACE ENGINE COMPONENTS
For
the do-it-yourself race engine builder.
The following major components can be
custom ordered to meet your needs.
PISTON & RING SETS
FAB-TEK has
established an excellent ring source for racing. A forged piston design is available to
utilize these rings which come in .25mm size increments. For example, 81.25mm bore diameter is 3.1988
inch, which is .040 over standard MGB.
The FAB-TEK piston features lowered top ring position for clearance to
exhaust valve notches. Piston sets
include 4 pistons, rings, pins & retainers.
Price: $ 695
CONNECTING RODS
The FAB-TEK billet
rod is designed to utilize Clevite 77 bearings, which are 3mm wider than normal
MGB (5-main) rod bearings. These
bearings are superior to other MGB bearings because of the added width. However, they only come in sizes of .005
& .015 undersize. The rods are made
by K-1 Technology to FAB-TEK specs for these bearings. These special bearings are readily available
from FAB-TEK & many automotive parts stores.
Price: $ 750 – set of 4 rods – 5main – Quad4
bearings
