Street Rods by Michael, Inc.began as a restoration shop in Nashville, TN in 1990, restoring classics, muscle cars and antiques. Later adding street rods to the mix, helped Michael expand the business. MIchael came to Nashville in 1980 to play music. After a good career as a studio musician, he found that running a shop that specialzed in classic cars was more fun than the music business. Growing up in Oregon, Michael played with cars from the time he was able to sit behind the wheel. Owning literally dozens of hot rods from high school on up gave Michael the experience and passion for cars that has carried over to the business you see today. Check it out here

MSD Ignition has led the automotive world in performance ignitions for over 40 years and now we are rewriting another industry standard. Introducing Atomic EFI, a throttle body kit designed to update engines using outdated carburetors with all of the modern benefits of a fuel injection system. Current aftermarket options to convert a vehicle to EFI can be difficult and time consuming, but with the all-new Atomic EFI all that will change. Atomic EFI was designed for the average car guy, like you. Installation is easy and replaces a 4-barrel carb with just basic tools. Also, instead of having countless sensors, we incorporated the TPS, MAP, IAT, and more right in the throttle body so that you don't have to worry about installing them. Atomic EFI features a returnless fuel system, which means you can keep your existing fuel tank pickup and never have to modify the gas tank. Atomic EFI will be available for purchase in 2012. If you purchase one between Jan. 1 and Mar. 31 you get a free MSD 6A ignition!
