any one else noticed edelbrocks pricing going through the roof since March. A package I was looking at for a bbc went up 700 from today vs the April may June summit catalog I got in February. I know they just joined with comp cams but seems like during this time of support America thats the wrong move to me.

who raised the price $700. Edelbrock or Summit?

Price fixing. Again. Or a supply and demand issue due to the virus that shall not be named.

With a limited open international market for raw materials everything is going to go up. Sad thing is after everything settles the prices will still climb.

Bummer. Not to mention from what I can gather, most guys have more time to invest in their cars. Whether they are buying parts and doing work themselves or paying hot rod garages. The biggest hurdle frequently was time more than money. And how often to guys get to the late winter and spring season and wish they could do upgrades? Edlebrock might just be cashing in on the situation.

Also they could be pricing themslves better in the market. They are a cut above companies like Holley but too many times the price difference suggests they are more like Pepsi vs Coke.
