DANNY SAYS
“SWAIN IS NOT SNAKE OIL”
Danny Kellermeyer is a Corvette guy with a winning career in road racing. Every year
he tests new products. Most are snake oil. Early on Danny discovered Swain Tech
coatings and has used them since. He coats pistons, valves, cylinder heads, headers
and brakes. “Swain is awesome for improving VE* and power but heat control and
durability are most important. At a 100°+Texas Motor Speedway day we cooked
an engine. A radiator hose broke during qualifying and we overheated the engine
severely. I knew the engine was toast, but we fixed the hose and were able to do the
race and finish on the podium. We didn’t have time for a tear down because Lime
Rock was a week away. We ran the car again and it was a champ.
We ran the rest of the season with that engine and it got faster as
we went. On tear down the engine was beautiful with little wear and
damage from the overheat”. Danny puts about 5,000 race and track
day miles on his C6 and C7 engines without tear downs. Without
Swain coatings he’d have to rebuild after 3,000 miles. Don’t race
without Swain coatings.
