Rinehart’s Performance Race Cars can provide you with a wide range of services, from chassis set-up and updates to your current race car, to the design and fabrication of a new, state-of-the-art, turn-key race car. To support you after completion of your car, initial break-in and testing assistance is delivered by the experts who actually built it, either at the track, or by phone.  Plus, the on-track and phone assistance doesn't stop there.   We will help keep your car running to its full potential by giving tuning advice and support throughout the season.  In fact, some of our clients get quite an education on chassis set-ups.  "The smarter we can make you, the easier our job is to keep your car as fast and consistent as possible."

SERVICE DETAILS


Custom-Bent Roll Cages and Tube Chassis' are made from 4130 Chrome Moly tubing and are all "TIG" welded to meet SFI certification.   Upon request, we can use "DOM" mild steel and "MIG" weld the cage or bar.  However, we highly recommend the use of  "TIG" welding and Chrome moly for numerous reasons.  When instaling a custom roll cage or roll bar, the interior must be removed.

Fabricated Interiors are hand crafted and can be made out of aluminum or steel and both have the option of being removable, for quick access and cleaning, with 1/4 turn dzus fasteners or screwed and spot welded to be mounted permanently.

Narrowed Rear End Housings are cut to length and "TIG" welded in a housing JIG to ensure proper alignment of the rear axles.  Fabricated Rear housings with back braces are highly recommended for higher horsepower cars to keep the housing rigid.   The photo below shows a Super Stock legal, Ford 9" housing that is back braced and equipped with a  4-link rear suspension, Santhuff coil over shocks,  anti-roll bar and wheelie bars.   
                                                        

Rear Differential Ring and Pinion gear assembly is offered for 9" Ford, 10 & 12 bolt Chevy and Dana rear housings.  (Center section or rear housing must be removed from the car.)
                                                                                                 

Custom Built Headers are designed & fabricated for each individual application.  They can be made out of stainless steel or steel tubing and Jet Hot coated before delivery.  You can also choose from Standard, Merged or Muffler collectors and straight or stepped primary tubes, depending on your combination. 
                                                                      

Chassis Alignment & Set-ups are one of our best features.  Each car is precisely set up, aligned and placed on 4 wheel digital scales to ensure our ultimate goal;  "To Hook Hard & Go Straight."  In fact, we set up and scale many other cars from other chassis builders after they build the car.   On-Track testing and Chassis tuning is available at an additional cost for cars built elsewhere.
                                                                      

Wiring & Plumbing is just part of finishing a race car.  We use the correct sized wire, fuses and relays to protect your valuable components.  This is like "jewelry " for a chassis.  When it's complete, the detail put in wiring and plumbing of a race car, adds to the look and doesn't hinder it.   "It's just our way of doing things"
                                                                       

Race Engine Combinations, Design and Assembly Program gives you an advantage by having us select items such as: Cylinder head ports & Cam profiles to Ring combinations & Compression ratios.    Each part helps make up the whole package for the best possible results and longevity. We know You certainly want the best results for your money.
                                                                         

Cylinder Head Port Work  can be done for you to maximize the overall efficiency of your race engine.  You will get a computer print out of "your own cylinder head" flow sheets, from our in house SUPERFLOW 600 flow bench.  Not hand written or generic sheets that everyone with your style head gets a copy of.  
We will also flow test your heads, that you port yourself, for a nominal fee.
                                                                            

We can assure you of buying the right parts, the first time, from the performance industry's most respected manufacturers (we are Wholesale Distributors or Dealers for many of these manufacturers).  We can give you top quality parts for prices you can afford.  Let us put our experience and expertise to work for you.
