PRI Show Spotlight: Powermaster Performance |
The
booth for Powermaster Performance had a lot
going on, including many new products and an appearance by
one of the fastest people on the planet. Powermaster
Performance Starters & Alternators, located
in West Chicago, IL has been manufacturing new starters
and alternators in their 145,000 sq. ft. facility since
1981. Powermaster Performance builds a wide range of starters,
alternators, and Powergens for all types of domestic vehicles.
With adjustable voltage alternators weighing less than 6
pounds all the way up to diesel truck starters and high
amp alternators to make sure the race car gets to the track!
Powermaster is proud to work with racers to develop starters
and alternators that suit specific needs. One example is
their Ultra Torque High Speed starter, designed for alcohol
or magneto engines. The Ultra Torque High Speed spins up
to 25% faster with 200ft lbs of torque for engines up to
15:1 compression.

engineer Dave McIlvaine and land speed record-holder Danny
Thompson. Danny and his team needed starters with more cranking
speed than they were using so Dave and Powermaster developed
the starters that were used on the record run at Bonneville. |
