Just thought I would post it up. I don't run any of there stuff, and probably never would have based on how people talk about it, but that was a big performance car part company that is no longer around!

There website is still up, but the phone message says otherwise.

I liked their carbs. I ran a Speed Demon 750 and I liked the look and plus they flowed 20% more than they say. I just think they were a lil too expensive...Plus I guess their tech sucked.

Too bad IMO.

Good riddance. I am not happy to see any American business fail but their customer service sucks, and like Jim said, their QC was a joke.

Sad to see another performance parts company close their doors. But I agree with others their rep hasn't been very good over the years. Poor customer service, shit carbs etc. Have heard so many times about their failed fuel pumps.

Haven't they been around since the late 70s? Not sure.

BTW, Barry Grant was an arrogant prick that treated his employees like shit. I met him once-NOT a people person:loser

I have heard this alot from different people. Not a good way to have a long lasting business of you can't ship out stuff without trash in it.
