Default New LS Goodies from Summit Racing

Hey Folks,

We wanted to let you all know about some new goodies we've recently released.


Summit Racing Billet LS Rear Main Seal Housings



A billet rear main seal housing on an LS provides:

1. Increased Strength: Billet is more durable and resists warping, which is ideal for high-RPM or high-power setups.
2. Better Sealing: Tighter machining tolerances reduce the risk of oil leaks, especially in boosted or high-performance engines.
3. Improved Heat Dissipation: Billet aluminum dissipates heat better, extending the life of the seal and housing.

While the stock housing is fine for most builds, a billet housing is a worthwhile upgrade for engines under heavy stress.


Summit Racing Billet LS Rocker Stands




A billet rocker stand on an LS engine offers:

1. Increased Strength: Billet is stronger and more rigid than stock, ideal for high-RPM or high-power setups.
2. Better Stability: Reduces flex and maintains proper alignment for smoother valve operation.
3. Improved Precision: Tighter tolerances for better rocker geometry.
4. Better Heat Dissipation: Helps keep the valvetrain cooler under stress.

For most builds, stock works fine, but a billet stand is a solid upgrade for high-performance engines.


This is just a small sample of our offerings for the LS community! We’re always developing new parts and tools for LS engines, and right now we’ve got over 1,200 items in our private brand lineup. We’re planning to keep growing that number in the coming months and years. If there’s something you need that we don’t have yet, let us know! We’re always open to suggestions from the community!

I'm glad to see that parts are still being developed. Those rocker stands are enticing.

Affordable, rebuildable shaft roller rockers👍needed asap by everyone who wants get serious. The rockers out now are nice, but spending $2500+ is insane for what you get. The rockers are more than a lot of heads they are going on. Some good basic solid systems would absolutely sell.

Thanks for that suggestion @DualQuadDave.

We can't comment on active projects but shaft roller rockers are on our radar!

I agree with this, but doesn't BTR have shaft rockers that are affordable?

Yeah, but they are just stock rockers on a shaft, Comp also offers a similar kit. When I shaft rockers, I mean true roller rockers on a shaft w/ adjustment built in. The stock rocker is great to a point, but to get serious you are going .700+ lift and you are way past what a stock rocker can handle.
