Re: Edelbrock says goodbye to California
Stii have production in 2 facilities in California. Not a surprise for Office employees, since the sale of the company to a conglomerate, always seems they downsize office staff..

Can’t blame them one bit for leaving CA.

Re: Edelbrock says goodbye to California
I would not be surprised that Californias war on the car, and business didn`t help, but I have to wonder how much the cheap Chinese knock off copies of Edelbrocks, and other US companies products contributed to this decision. I imagine Vic would be turning in his grave.

Re: Edelbrock says goodbye to California
I spoke with someone in Edelbrock customer service on Friday. They are working out of the Comp Cams offices in Memphis for now. I think they are transitioning to Comp Groups distribution center on Olive Branch (a few miles down the road from Memphis. They will be in the same building where the Lunati sales office is now.

I’m sure they will keep the Foundry and Heat Treat facility that’s in California in California as it’s a very modern facility and well laid out beside they have states approval to run.
