Cool Can Looking Cool

Keep Your Fuel Cool

The new Cool Can by S-Max Performance is a fuel chiller that can be used on EFI and carburetor applications.  It combines old-school technology with contemporary eye-catching good looks.



Inside Can

Inspiration for the Cool Can came from drag racers of the sixties.  They discovered that by running their fuel lines through bags of ice it became cooler and denser and as a consequence the engine produced more power. The specific gravity of fuel is calculated at 60-degrees Fahrenheit, so high under hood temperatures undermine gasoline’s ability to perform.

The Cool Can uses more than 9-feet of large diameter -6 aluminum tubing coiled on the inside wall of a billet aluminum cylinder to chill the fuel.  This efficient design results in minimal pressure loss.  The center of the coil is just large enough to fit a soda can.  By filling an empty can with water, freezing it overnight, inserting it in the Cool Can, and topping it off with water, the Cool Can is ready to perform. As fuel travels through the coil, it drops in temperature and becomes denser.  Cooler fuel means more power.

The Cool Can’s compact cylindrical shape measures 6.125-inches in length and 4-inches in diameter, and fits easily into most engine bays.  Two mounting styles are available: one installs on the firewall, the other on the shock tower, and two -6AN PushLok fittings complete the fuel line connections.  The soda can and the drainage plug make draining a cinch.  No cumbersome coolers or messy ice bags, only shimmering good looks and better performance.
