Bailey Motorsport
For many years Bailey Motorsport have lead the market in performance car products. Based in the UK, Bailey Motorsport offer a range of performance car parts, including Bailey Dump Valves and Bailey Motorsport alloy components which are known in the tuning market for their high quality, performance, reliability and top value.
Standard Dump Valves
Bailey’s valves have a 60psi boost capability (most diaphragm valves fail around 30psi). The DV24 single piston valve is suitable for turbocharged cars with a carburettor, throttle bodies or no airflow meter. The DV26 or ‘EVO’ twin piston valve has been designed for turbocharged cars that have an airflow meter. The ingenious second piston allows cars to idle perfectly and for the fuel mixture to be unchanged, which resolves all the poor running problems traditionally associated with diaphragm valves.
Header Tanks
All Bailey alloy header tanks are designed as direct replacements requiring no special hoses or tools to enable fitment. They are fabricated from high quality aluminium, which is then highly polished to a mirror-like finish, and are supplied with a high pressure cap. Their benefits include:
- High strength - Standard plastic tanks can crack or split with age (especially on high powered turbo charged cars running lots of boost!) but a Bailey tank is indestructible, even on 500+BHP race cars.
- Constant pressure - By using a 1.3 Bar (19psi) cap, it raises the pressure within the cooling system which effectively raises the boiling point of the water, keeping the car cooler for longer.
- Cool looks that last - Never has a simple water tank looked so good! Used on many show winning and magazine feature cars and if regularly polished will probably outlast the car!
Oil Seperator Fitting Kits
Oil Separator fitting kits include all the necessary rubber hoses, stainless steel hose clips, adaptors/unions and instructions.
Bailey Recirculating Dump Valves
All the benefits of the normal piston design, but with less audible ‘whoosh’. The DV30 was originally designed as a direct replacement for the factory fitted Bosch dump valve found on a wide variety of cars. The Bosch valve is made of plastic, contains a rubber diaphragm and is known to fail when subjected to too much boost pressure or excessive temperatures. The DV30 is the perfect choice for a standard car or fire-breathing 550+BHP tuned vehicle, capable of withstanding huge amounts of boost. As it is designed to direct the dumped boost back into the air filter or airstream, it is generally speaking ‘silent’ in operation. Available finishes: Highly polished silver, red, blue or black anodised.
Venturi Dump Values
Recently added to the range, the new ‘Venturi’ style trumpet outlet dump valve offers a distinctive lower-tone pitch ‘Dump’. These new valves have been made due to customer requests for an aggressive valve with increased airflow capability for higher power applications. With model codes of DV34 and DV36, they have the same application as the DV24 and DV26 respectively. Available finishes: Highly polished silver, red, blue or black anodised.
Swirl Pots
Water swirl pots are fitted as common practice on many race cars, where the demands on the cooling system are high due to increased power and engine revs. Swirl pots fit into the radiator top hose and their function is to swirl the incoming water, which due to centrifugal force removes the air bubbles through the top spout, which is then fed back to the top of the header tank. Removing the air caused by localised boiling within the cooling system will allow the water to have a more stable operating temperature. Once the air is removed your radiator will work more efficiently as air takes up valuable space without conducting any heat away.
An ideal partner to our range of header tanks, all swirl pots are manufactured from the best quality aluminium, highly polished and supplied with a fitting kit including hose clips and Samco silicone hose in blue.
Bailey Turbo Damper Kits
Made from highly polished stainless steel and fitted with high temperature spherically jointed bearings, this damper is designed for all YB series Cosworth engines using the 2wd exhaust manifold. The standard Ford damper is known to wear at a rapid rate and if left for long enough will eventually break the exhaust studs, meaning a costly repair job. The Bailey damper has the following benefits:- • Keeps the turbo properly supported • Direct replacement for all 2wd Cosworths. As the Cosworth 4wd head has no damper mounting lugs, the TDK38 is the ideal way of fitting a 2wd exhaust manifold (superior to the 4wd version for power) to a 4wd cylinder head. Can be used with T3, T34 and T4 turbos.
Oil Seperator Tanks
Car manufacturers spend thousands of pounds developing efficient breather systems for their cars, which usually work perfectly okay for a standard model, but once the engine RPM or power output is raised (cams, increased boost pressure etc.) the standard system is no longer sufficient. Bailey breather systems actually separate the oil into vapour and liquid, which gives three major benefits:
- Reduced Crankcase Pressure - Freeing up crankcase pressure by increasing the capacity of the breather and adding more or larger breather pipes, has the result of reducing oil blow-by. This means quite simply that your engine will perform better for longer as the tough job of controlling the oil breathing system is taken care of by the oil separator.
- Oil Re-Circulation - Because Bailey oil separators are designed to return the oil back to the engine sump, your oil will last longer and the risk of running out of oil is reduced. Oil particles released from the engine are suspended in the air that enters the separator and once separated, the oil is returned through a drain connection to the engine sump. There is also a large bore vent hose that is routed safely underneath the car, to expel any engine fumes.
- Mix Air and Fuel, NOT Oil - The standard Cosworth breather system vents oil mist back into the airbox, which means that older engines will have a small puddle of oil in their air filters! Engines mix air and fuel to produce power, but introducing oil as well leads to increased chances of detonation, which nobody wants.
Bailey Turbo Oil Filter Filters
Bailey turbo oil filters are designed for direct fitting to Garrett T3, T34 or T4 turbos and contain a 25 micron stainless steel mesh which greatly increases the life of a turbo’s bearings. Connects with standard turbo feed hose (except 4wd Cosworth - requires longer hose).
