This guide helps both beginners and veterans to the auto performance part world with info on various performance parts.

Whether you want to add some speed to your street rod, get the muscle car cruising 0-60 faster, or want some better gas mileage, these three performance parts can help.

So let's get to some top performance parts to rebuild your car the right way.

Air Filters. Air filters may seem to be boring when you want to go from 0-60 in 4.3, but they actually have more upside than most other performance parts. They give you car more power; a racing air filter can up your power by as much as 10%. They're quite easy to install; this can be done in a day or less. Also, if you ever want to take this air filter out, like many performance parts it's an easy job.

Camshaft Performance Parts. Lastly, we have the camshaft. The camshaft is a complex way to improve engine performance, but it's no harder to install than most other performance parts. How it works is quite interesting. The camshaft uses lobes to push against valves and open them, which in turn spring on the valves and return them to the closed position. This is quite an important part of improving your engine's performance at different speeds.

These are some of the top performance parts for any car, from street rod to monster muscle car. While this is a good start, don't forget about other performance parts like the carburetor. - 29952
