Burton is now stocking Hi-Spec Billet 4 calipers. These have been designed to directly replace M16 calipers which are fitted as standard to Escort Mk1/2 RS/Mexico, Escort Mk2, Capri 70- and Cortina Mk3/4/5, thus providing an easy 4 pot upgrade. Just like the original M16 caliper, these calipers are single piece with integral mounting lugs.

Two versions are available. BILLET4-S calipers are for cars with solid brake discs and BILLET4-V calipers are for the models that had vented discs.

BILLET4 calipers are ideal for most road applications and heavier vehicles requiring an M16 upgrade. Billet 6082 T6 aluminium body and pistons weighing only 925g and feature a black anodised finish.. External dust boots protect ingress of dirt into the pistons.

Prices vary with model but start at £116.50 with most around £166.50 each including VAT.

Proper racing braided hose ends tend to be expensive and require special tools to install. However, these stainless and rubber hose ends are affordable and do the job admirably on almost all road cars.

Burton’s 8mm chrome end cap and clamp retails at just £6.00 each inc. VAT and provides secure fastening on all types of hoses, ; it is paticularly useful on stainless steel braided lines as it protects the sharp braided ends and prevents fraying. The internal stainless worm drive clip is replaceable and the cap can be rotated to hide the worm drive for a neater installation. It can be used on 5/16″ and 8mm O.D. hose. Order as part number SSH516CEC.

Burtons also offer an alternative rubber end cap and clamp (part number SSH516REC) at just £2.75 inc. VAT each, that performs the same function, but with an external hose clamp.

Alloy wheels are particularly susceptible to damage when off the vehicle – especially when being stored together on a rack. The faces can easily rub against each other causing rim damage.

Thankfully, B-G Racing can now supply a divider set for use with its Single Tier Wheel and Tyre Trolley to restrain the wheels and tyres thus preventing them from moving around and rubbing against each other.

Once fitted, the dividers are easily adjusted to suit the various wheel and tyre sizes.
The trolley and dividers are ideal for workshops, tyre-fitting bays, garages, alloy wheel refurbishment companies, race pits and wheel & accessory dealers. In fact anywhere where wheels are removed from a vehicle and damage to the rim face must be prevented.

The dividers are produced from a mild steel skeleton sleeved with protective foam tubing and are
sold as a set of three.

Price: £113.99 inc VAT.

Not every mechanic in Europe owns a full set of AN (DASH) sized wrenches; trying to make do with steel metric sizes invariably leads to damaged AN fittings. AN lines are also frequently routed through hard-to-reach areas where a large spanner just can’t reach.

Aeroflow has solved both problems at once with the introduction of its Large Stubby Adjustable AN Wrench.

The Large Stubby Adjustable Wrench features a 4.5″ long ergonomic handle and fits sizes from
-03AN up to -20AN. It is perfect for highly confined space. The aluminium jaws are specifically designed for alloy end fitting and won’t round or damage them.
Price: £30.00 inc VAT.

No drag racer wants a parachute accidentally deploying in the pits or staging lanes or during transport.

The Aeroflow Parachute Safety Flag Locking Pin will ensure this cannot happen.

The flag features a brightly coloured Aeroflow logo on one side with the phrase ‘REMOVE BEFORE RACE’ written in bold on the other, so the crew won’t forget to remove the flag – and the essential pin – before launch.

Price: £9.59 inc VAT.
