Moroso Performance Products
The elves in the Moroso Performance Products workshop must've been hard at work in 2017 because the company had a slew of new products at PRI. Starting clockwise from the top left: 1) Moroso's tie down hooks and hinged tow hook; 2) their new rocker LED switch panels with USB ports (p/n 74195) and with USB ports and 6 resettable 20-amp circuit breakers (p/n 74194); 3) their universal air-oil separator with billet aluminum black body and a bottom drain (p/n 85531); 4) their new GM LS billet aluminum 2.5" tall valve covers with coil pack mounts and oil fill hole (p/n 68488); 5) & 6) next is Moroso's Thor Schroeder with their GM LT COPO Oil Pan (p/n 21154.

Odyssey Battery
Permatex
Odyssey Battery was showing their line of portable chargers (available in 6-, 12- and 20-amp) and Extreme Series batteries, which the company claims have twice the overall power and three times the service life of conventional batteries. ODYSSEY Extreme Series batteries can provide engine-cranking pulses in excess of 2250 amps for 5 seconds – double to triple that of equally sized conventional batteries. Visit www.odysseybattery.com.
Permatex was showing their Fast Orange Grease X laundry detergent, the first professional grade mechanics laundry detergent with a built in pre-treater specifically formulated to remove up to 99% of automotive stains and odors. Racers, I've used this and it is awesome. The issue that I had was finding it, but the company has now said it's available chain-wide at Advance Auto Parts. Sorry, no website URL to share; www.Permatex.com seems to be dead.
