Build back better is already working like a charm ain't it? So what's a few more skilled talented people screwed out of their good jobs? Besides hot rods are killing our fragile planet, so what's a little collateral damage? Gotta break some eggs to make an omelet. They can hang out with the laid off pipeline workers when they learn to code, or make solar panels/extreme sarc😡😡.

I put an Edeklrock carb on my 64 12 years ago. Other than having to replace the accelerator pump because the ethanol laden crapgas damages the neoprene plunger over time, still works great.

Cheaper to do same work elsewhere...plus with internal combustion engines maybe being phased out soon...maybe the new management wants to position the company for future tech work. That is what central government “planning” does for us. Way to go, “woke”, soon broke, voters and cheaters.

No big deal, those workers can just make solar solar panels instead, right?

San Jacinto CA in Riverside county was the location of the Scientology annex, and a Soboba Indian casino. it has lately become a welfare dump for LA and San Bernardino Counties, at one time a lot of well off old people moved that way to retire and the politicians picked them clean, now it is a S-hole again

As a kid I was into small block Chevy building and used quite a few Edelbrock parts, the Torqer and SP2P manifolds come to mind as well as carbs. It was a lot of fun, wish engines were that simple today.

I had a chance to buy a 65 Ford with a 390 in it and the guy said it was upgraded to a pointless ignition because points were too difficult to figure out. Because of that stupidity I backed out of the deal.

“Two monsters of the industry have partnered up. Industrial Opportunity Partners, an operations-focused private equity firm based in Evanston, Ill., and owner of Edelbrock LLC, today announced the acquisition of the COMP Performance Group.

Edelbrock, LLC and the COMP Performance Group and their respective management teams will currently operate as independent organizations, and we do not anticipate any interruption of service. Both teams will continue to provide the same great designs, products, and service that have made them respective market leaders as they explore opportunities to drive increased product and customer offerings.”

Maybe the new, larger organization recognized that it’s past time to escape Calif. ?

The Piston engine isn't dead yet. My guess is Miss or NC is their destination to get out of Cali-communism, my money is on Miss. Remember Jesse James left for Austin TX, ya it's weird & liberal, but he left, my guess is many other hod rod shops & firms exit, I have been predicting they'd leave.

Immic,they bought Holley, their line of TBI fuel injection systems got even cooler, aka a 1 barrel version for 4's & 6's 75 to 180hp, the main target old Mustangs & Falcons, any hole's straight 6 for that matter.

He’s just reversing the policies of President Trump which brought jobs back to America because it was so unfair. < / sarcasm>

Vic is gone, the V8 ICE is soon to follow, the ability to modify an ICE is becoming limited, so the hand writing is on the wall.......

This looks like a preemptive move to avoid the proposed Kalifornia exit tax...imagine the parent company in Illinois having to pay taxes on their GLOBAL net wealth for 10 YEARS after they move...just because one of their subsidiary companies closed up shop in the land of fruits and nuts.

Who in their right mind would do business in this state under those conditions?
