Billet Specialties Tru Trac Front Drive System Install
Blingy performance! Yeah, maybe it's not a real word, but you get the idea. When it comes to enhancing your car with a blend of show and go-fast parts, it becomes a juggling act. It is almost like you're going for that James Bond blend of performance-oriented elegance. Show parts aren't looked upon as performance pieces under a lot of circumstances. Billet Specialties is one of the exceptions. They have added another line to their front drive systems for LS-based engines and we are going to install one on a GM LS3 crate engine.
LSX engines have become the engine of choice over the last few years, for everything from Civics to classic muscle cars, and a plethora of aftermarket companies offer swap kits for many popular platforms. Those who can afford to do so use brand new crate engines, which do not come with accessories. So when it comes to building even a Resto-mod, who wants to settle for the stock appearing and functioning parts?
Pro Touring is a growing trend consisting of people who like to take their nicely restored classic cars out on the autocross during the weekends. With style and performance being equally matched, Pro Touring guys need parts that perform as well as they look. That's where Billet Specialties comes in.
Nearly Twenty Five Years and Counting
Since 1985, Billet Specialties has been in the business of building not only good looking engine trim parts, but also go-fast goodies like their front drive systems and their lightweight, multi-piece wheels. Glenn Grozich, founder of Billet Specialties, started out making parts for his personal car before starting the business.
After many years of success in the industry, dealers eventually began asking them to develop a front drive system. "Our first front drive system was the small block Chevy, Big Block, then to the Fords and it grew from there," explained Scott Sandoval of Billet Specialties. Billet Specialties currently occupies a 100,000 square foot manufacturing facility.
