1)  New LS Cam Stand Adapter  We've got a new rotary encoder adapter for the LS cams, and other cams with holes larger than the standard .625" rotary encoder center on our Cam Test Stand.  The new CTSLSRIC compact adapter allows for more clearance on the cam test stand than our larger CTS-LSRI.  It is shown on the left in the picture below, with the current larger LS adapter in the middle, and the standard adapter on the right for comparison.

2) New Engine Log Book Features  We recently added some new features to the Plus version of our Engine Log Book software, so you can enter bore measurements at up to 4 positions around the bore.  Previously you could enter measurements at 0 deg and 90 deg.  Now you have the option of also recording at 45 deg and 135 deg.

If you already own the Plus version, this is a free update.  If you own the standard log book, you can add the Plus features for $135.

3) Quick Cam Checker at Jet Boat Championships  Our Quick Cam Checker was used to tech the 2019 Jet Boat Championships, which wrapped up July 21.  The top 4 boats were checked using our Quick Cam Checker with its new LS bracket.  Feedback was everything worked great.
