For drag racers and pavement pounders, Proform Auto has developed a line of electric water pumps. The pumps eliminate unnecessary weight and impeller drag experienced at high rpm. They will also pump up to 35-plus gallons of water per minute and deliver incredible cooling, which can make the difference between a First- and Second-Place finish. Besides producing mega volumes of water per minute, they can provide an increase of up to 15 hp. The pumps are made from light-weight, die-cast aluminum and are powdercoated in a variety of colors. These pumps are designed for either race or street use. All Proform electric water pumps come with four mounting bolts, four mounting washers, two water pump gaskets, and one 1-inch-diameter to 1-1/2-inch-diameter hose adapter fitting.

AME Front Suspension Air Spring Plus and Front Clip Packages For those applications where the builder wishes to adapt a Morrison Air Spring Plus suspension to an existing chassis, special front and rear subframe assemblies are available. Like all other Morrison frame components, the subframes are individually CAD-engineered for the exact year/make/model of the vehicle and the 'rails are mandrel-bent to form show-quality bends. The subframes are made of 2x4x0.120-inch wall rectangular tubing and fixture welded by Morrison's experienced craftsman to ensure proper alignment. Air Spring Plus suspension packages are available individually for both front and rear subframes. The air springs, hoses, fittings, an air pump, a storage tank, and a dash-mount control panel (single switch) come as a package, while the front suspension kit includes control arms, a sway-bar, and shocks.
