WIX Filters has released a new Racing Filter Catalog featuring oil, air and fuel filters as well as mounting bases engineered for top-motorsport performance. WIX’s line of racing filters covers NASCAR Sprint Cup, Nationwide, Camping World Truck and ARCA, as well as dirt track, off-road and drag racing.

“WIX engineers continuously work with the top racing teams in the development and design of the WIX racing filter line,” said Mike Harvey, brand manager for WIX Filters, the No. 1 filter in motorsports, according to Harvey.

“Our expert-engineered motorsports filters have been tested and proven in competition since the 1960s to ensure we provide the highest-quality products for teams and drivers," said Harvey. "This catalog is a single source to find the best filter for any racing need.”

The catalog, last released in 2008, offers two different and distinct racing filter lines based on desired engine performance and protection. For maximum flow and horsepower, the lowest restriction pure racing media filters are recommended, according to WIX. However, when endurance and better engine protection are needed, WIX’s high efficiency endurance media filters are the correct choice, the company says.

The WIX Racing Filter Catalog includes detailed filter specifications, a stock OEM filter location and application list for Chrysler, Ford and General Motors/Chevrolet engines, plus a filter cross reference list.

Alternator Testing For No Charge Conditions

Many alternator problems turn out to be nothing more than a bad connection at the alternator or a bad wiring harness.

If only battery voltage is present at the battery on a running engine, does this mean the alternator is “bad?” No, it does not. It only means that the alternator is not charging, but does not reveal why. Therefore, it does not point to a faulty alternator. All too often, the alternator is condemned by technicians due to this test alone. The cause could instead be a module that distributes the power to the vehicle and regulates the alternator.
