Edelbrock Comp Cams?
 

Was at dinner tonight and got a call from a very very good source. It is that Edelbrock has bought Comp Cams and is moving Edelbrock to Tennessee?

I think it would be much more likely that Comp would have bought Edelbrock. But I don't know anything one way or another.

I am sure manufacturing could be done for far less in the Southeast than in Cali.

However I think the move would be very expensive.

Actually Industrial Opportunity Partners purchased Comp Performance Group. IOP has owned Edelbrock for almost ten years. The purchase of CPG includes Comp Cams, TCI, FAST, RHS, V Thunder, Powerhouse, Comp Cams Go Parts, Lunati, Crane, Inglese and ZEX. I heard Edelbrock will have a distribution center in the CPG building in Olive Branch, MS but I don't think they are moving everything there.

Yeah, with all the foundry equipment in Ca I don't see that moving.

I work for an Edelbrock distributor and we were told that the Edelbrock warehouse in California will shut down on Feb. 7th and be closed for about 1 month. So it looks like all the finished goods will be sent to Olive Branch. I would imagine that the foundry remains in California.

I certainly don't have any direct information on this, but I would have to think they would love to move the foundry out of CA. Not exactly a heavy industry friendly state........

Edelbrock’s foundry is a very modern facility it’s a wonder they state approval to build it when they did.
