:D best parts around been dealing with them for over a year never had a problem get parts in about 3-5 days

[johnracer]

Yep, same here. Been dealing with them and Jegs for about 15 years. No problems. Lately I've been using Jegs more. Their staff seem to know more and they ship quicker.....

[bjuice]

if ya got local or Smaller INDEPENDENT SPEED SHOP (S) please support them...they are a dying breed.

why ??...you get their research beforehand..if something comes up short try getting a mail order company to get it fixed or try getting the summit salesman to put you on the right heads or camshaft..on the other hand go thru someone like Ron Owens racing ETC and watch him get it fixed..they have the priority attention of their distributers.

this is not saying any large parts mail order companys such as JEGS or Summit are not good..it is what it is,,


my opinion only.

[hotrod1024]

I agree with Brian.Summit and Jegs are great but if you have locals close enough it is better.Nearest one 2 me is about 45mins to an hour,but still worth the drive every couple of months.

[BEAST477]

Yes,I agree with Brian. Do business locally if you can. If it's like the store I do business with they might give you a little break on the prices if you're going to do a large amount of business. JMO.

STAY WITH THE LOCAL GUYS IF POSSIBLE--THEN GO WITH THE BIGGER GUYS IF YOU CAN'T GET WHAT YOU NEED 8) 8)

I TRIED TO GET INFO ON HEADERS LAST YEAR FROM SUMMIT[ TECH GUYS WAS VERY RUDE AND DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HEADERS]--ENOUGH SAID :oops: :oops:

TRY RON OWENS!!!---IF HE DON'T TREAT YOU RIGHT WE KNOW WHERE HE HANGS OUT :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

TOTALLY SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL ENGINE BUILDER,BUT IF I HAVE TO PLACE AN ORDER,I MUCH PREFER AND AGREE-jegs IS MUCHER GOODER :shock: TO DEAL WITH.

[amcjunky]

ok thanks for the input guys :) i will try local first :)

[hammertime]

I buy from Jegs monthly it seems. I do use locals when I need something bad, but prices from Locals dont touch mail order around me.

The best deal with Jegs is if you have a nhra or ihra membership # call them up and ask about the jegs discount program. It has saved me thousands in the last year. Recently purchased a new set up rear brakes $85.00 of book price with discount.

Thanks for the kind words guy's i do try very hard to take care of my customers it is the only way to be i feel .

I am very competitive with Jegs and summit and beat there price most of the time and if i cant i will tell you so.

B juice and lively know that i will do what ever it takes they have seen some of the response from others.

Oh thanks Dave for the referral on the K&R parts your friend bought his from me nice guy.

so if i can be of any help just give me a call or drop me a line. Thanks Ron

We just signed with a huge Motorsports warehouse. Basicly we can get anything Jegs or summit has and we can at least match their prices, and give you the absolute best Customer service we can.Right now we are in the process of moving into our first Store Front.It is located in a pretty good size building that also houses a Fab Shop and restoration shop.We are even carrying Roundy Round parts now !! Anyway, if we can help anybody out, we certainly will.
Oh and Brian, we will be heading through S.C. next month so please send me your # again !!!

I agree with others have said about Ron Owens Racing. Great guy and will go the extra mile for you and do what it takes!!!!

What I like about Ron Owens Racing is when you call him you speak to Ron!!!! :D :D

i agree to support local first, but if your gonna buy jegs or summit both are good. one thing to remember is you don't pay sales tax on mail order unless the business is in your state. think that's not much try buying a block, heads, intake, pistons, ect and take 7% or more off. it does add up. I live in Ga so i by a lot of parts from jegs because summit has a store in Ga. Both charge a flat $10 shipping fee no matter if it's a $20 order or $2,000 order. As far as customer service, both are good and i have sent plenty of items back. BUT PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SHOP BECAUSE HE PROBABLY HAS THE EXPERIENCE TO INSTALL WHAT HE SELLS AND WILL HELP YOU IF YOU NEED HIM!!!

I have used Summit exclusivly for years & had zero problems. They have like 4 werehouses in different states & ship pronto. It is rare they don't hae something in stock. good luck!!

[mr950]

Also try Competition Products.com Very , very good pricing on parts. They don't carry everything, but I have had real good luck with them. Who's this Ron guy every one is talking about? Good luck and support your local guy's if possible!

[gearhead1011]

Who's this Ron guy every one is talking about? Good luck and support your local guy's if possible!

Ron Owens in Florence, KY. He's a great guy to deal with and he will do what he says and then some. Here's his site. http://ronowensracing.com/

Thanks Chuck, good lookin ride!

I try to buy from the local speed shops too. They need the business more than Jegs or Summit.
Wise Speed Shop is about two miles from my house and Jerry Bickel is about 4 miles. So I'm covered.
Plus my two boys work at Wise part time. :)
