PERFORMANCE OIL CONTROLRacing Oil Pan Baffles

The GM LS family small blocks are prone to oil starvation at high Gs, especially at higher RPMs where oil aeration and windage is

more prevalent. Proper oil pan baffling is critical for improving oil control and reducing oil starvation in these engines.

Improved Racing’s baffles provide very effective, track-proven protection against oil starvation for road racing, drifting, autocross, drag

racing and even off-roading and rock crawling. The baffles use purpose built trap doors to keep oil around the pickup tube and provide

vastly improved oil control over the stock baffle. These baffles bolt directly into the factory oil pan and are track-proven to prevent oil

pressure drops up to 1.4 sustained lateral G’s in most vehicles.

The factory cast aluminum oil pan is considered a structural member of the engine block. Aftermarket sheet metal oil pans are often prone to leaks or failure. By adding trap door baffling to the factory oil pan, we are able to achieve oil control performance equivalent to aftermarket pans at a lower cost and without compromises.

All of Improved Racing's baffles are manufactured in the USA from light-weight aluminum, saving over one pound of weight over the factory baffle in many applications. All baffles come with a lifetime warranty.

Oil pressure drops as high as 13 PSI are virtually eliminated with the addition of anImproved Racing oil pan baffle.

Crankshaft scrapers (also known as crank wipers) help reduce oil starvation by closely contouring the crankshaft and rods to remove excess oil, ensuring more oil makes it to the bottom of the sump. Crank scrapers also help reduce parasitic drag and windage losses caused by excess oil on the crank, which reduces rotational mass and results in a typical gain of 2-5 horsepower at the wheels. Improved Racing's scrapers are designed to work in conjunction with the factory windage tray to improve oil control.

The LS1 Camaro / Firebird crank scraper is designed to help improve oil control in the 4th generation F-Body oil pan. Due to the shallow front sump, these oil pans must be used with a 3/4-length windage tray, sacrificing oil control below the first two cylinders of the engine. This crank scraper features additional baffling and a louver to help make-up for the lack of oil control below the first two cylinders.

Features and Benefits• Bolt-on installation (minimal notching may be required for some aftermarket crankshafts and connecting rods)• Reduces oil starvation• Results in typical gains of 2-5 horsepower at the wheels• Works in conjunction with factory windage tray• Manufactured from steel and zinc-plated for corrosion prevention

Low-Profile Oil Cooler Adapter for LS EnginesImproved Racing's GM LS-series oil cooler adapter is designed to provide more header clearance than any other adapter on the market. The aluminum gasket was replaced with Viton O-rings, providing additional clearance while still ensuring a reliable seal. The mounting holes are counter-bored so the mounting bolts fit flush with the adapter surface for maximum clearance. The adapter is constructed out of 6061-T6 billet aluminum with a black anodized finish.

The adapter features two 1/8" NPT ports for sensors or a turbo oil supply line. This adapter also features standard female -08AN O-ring boss ports and includes anodized adapter fittings options for -8AN, -10AN or -12AN lines. The adapter can be mounted upside down on the 5th generation Camaro / G8 oil pan for additional header and knock sensor clearance.

OIL ThermostatsFLOW SERIES MOTORSPORT

High performance vehicles require large oil coolers to ensure that the oil does not overheat during strenuous use. These coolers also introduce the possibility of over-cooling the oil and delaying engine warm-up during less strenuous use, resulting in horsepower loss, excessive engine wear and reduced gas mileage. Oil thermostats perform the critical function of bypassing the oil cooler until the oil has reached its minimum operating temperature.

Improved Racing’s Flow Series Motor Sport (FSM) oil thermostat is a universal solution that can be used with any oil cooler on any vehicle. The device’s unique patent-pending internal design - the result of over a year of research and development - ensures a low pressure drop by placing the bypass valve mechanism completely out of the primary oil flow. This arrangement also allows for a compact design.

This thermostat is designed for use with oil, transmission and differential coolers and is available in multiple temperatures. It features female -10AN O-ring boss threads and is available with optional fittings in -06AN, -08AN, -10AN, -12AN or 3/8” hose barbs. The included brackets allow for multiple mounting options as shown on the adjacent page.


Features and Benefits• Reduces excessive engine wear and horsepower losses

while improving gas mileage by preventing oil temperatures from dropping below optimal levels

• Patent-pending, high flow, low pressure drop design locates the valve assembly completely out of the primary fluid flow

• Allows a small percentage (less than 10%) of fluid to continually circulate through the cooler to eliminate air pockets, facilitate draining, and prevent cold fluid from remaining trapped in the cooler

• Rebuildable• 6061-T6 billet aluminum construction and black MIL-A-8625

Type II anodized finish• Lightweight at just 12.7 ounces (360g) without brackets or

fittings

VCM's over-the-radiator cold air intake kit offers huge horsepower gains by maximizing air flow with a straight ram-air design and massive K&N filter. Because air is pulled in over the radiator, it also feeds much cooler air into your engine than other intakes, resulting in even more horsepower gains. Molded from high-quality, OEM style molded plastic, VCM's kits are some of the nicest on the market and are known for being mistaken as a factory part.

These kits can be installed with simple hand tools in about 45 minutes. The radiator must be tilted back very slightly and upper radiator mounting brackets are included to achieve the required angle. They can be used with aftermarket MAFs and throttle bodies, but may require aftermarket silicone couplers. We offer couplers that allow this kit to work with Magnuson superchargers. These intakes can also be used in a MAF-less setup using our adapter kit, sold separately.

SUSPENSION STRUT BARSSWAY BAR END LINKS

Replace your worn stock sway bar end links with high-performance adjustable links made by Improved Racing.

Lowering a vehicle or adjusting corner weights often results in undesired sway bar preload, negatively affecting the vehicle’s handling. These end links allow you to eliminate preload and properly corner-weigh your vehicle. Links can also be made shorter than the stock links, which is ideal for lowered cars with limited ground clearance.

Improved Racing's end links feature high-quality, 3-piece rod ends made in the USA by FK Rod Ends. These motorsport grade rod ends are built to tighter tolerances and last longer than standard rod ends.

Aeroquip Stainless Steel Braided Hose

RaceFlux Lightweight Fuel Specific Racing Hose

RaceFlux Lightweight Racing Hose

Aeroquip’s FC333 Racing Hose is the original stainless braided hose. It's constructed from elastomer tube with a partial stainless steel wire inner braid and a full stainless steel outer braid reinforcement. Rated for -55°F to +300°F (-49°C to 150°C).

This fuel specific hose takes advantage of a synthetic Fluoroelastomer liner to make it compatible with racing fuels as well as ethanol-based fuels (E85+), diesels and bio-diesels. With the addition of ethanol to all pump gas, this lined hose is beneficial in protecting against deterioration leading to fuel permeation (gas smell) and dry hardened hose.

The operating temperature range for this hose is -30°F (-34°C) to 300°F (148°C) and the maximum operating pressure is 250 PSI (1,724 kPa).

RaceFlux's racing hose is 30% lighter than traditional stainless braided hose and is much easier to assemble and work with.

The hose has an abrasion resistant Nylon cover with a smooth bore synthetic rubber interior. It also has a minimal stainless inner braid for added strength, which helps prevent the hose from collapsing or kinking and makes it suitable for vacuum applications. Suitable for use with oil, fuel, coolant, water and air. Compatible with traditional taper style hose end fittings.

The operating temperature range for this hose is -30°F (-34°C) to 300°F (148°C) and the maximum operating pressure is 250 PSI (1,724 kPa).
