Tru-Street transmission part
3. Tru-Street Budget Bundle
Bowler Performance released their new line of transmissions for the DIY and budget builders called the Tru-Street series. The Tru-Street series is based around the demands for a budget-friendly price point with a no-compromises build. This line of overdrive-equipped automatic transmissions is aimed at the builder who is using a stock to slightly modified engine that doesn’t need all the bells and whistles of a highly modified unit. The Tru-Street series build process is held to the same set of standards that any of our high-end units undergoes to ensure that no compromises are made in the quality of the final product. This isn’t just another rebuilt transmission, depending on model, each transmission has received all available updates and upgrades, all-new OEM solenoids, and a blueprinted, rebuilt valvebody. It is then dyno tested and ready for you to install. Currently the lineup includes the GM 700-R4, 4L60/70E, 4L80E, and Ford 4R70W. You get all the Bowler Performance quality you’ve heard about at a competitive price with a 12-month, limited conditional warranty.

4. Early Ford “Chin Bars”
Having filled your bumper bracket holes definitely cleans up the look of your 1940-1941 Ford pickup. However, it also creates a problem if you want to add some protection for your grille. The folks at McMillan Rod & Custom have the answer. This chin bar is designed specifically for Fords without bumper bracket holes. Built from high-quality, type 304 stainless steel and polished to a mirror-like finish, these units attach by looping under the front sheetmetal and then bolting to your frame. Don’t have a prewar Ford? Don’t worry, they can custom build one to fit your application. Give them a call for details.
