where to buy ?

Looking for a place to parts over the web. My first experience was bad, North American Motorsports. Charged for but did not receive parts. Expect problems. What is a dependable recommendation?

Summit Racing. I have bought almost everything from them. Usually they have the best prices and customer service has been excellent in my experience. I have always used their catalog, although they have a website also.

Yes Summit, They will treat you right plus you will be happy dealing with them.

Speaking of Summit, what is the usual turn around time on parts and are they a good place for gaskets, bought some new heads and need head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, ARP head bolts, etc...Good place to go?

Jegs is good too and they have a web site. Summit is good, the 2 are about the same.

I've noticed something about summit lately, it doesn't matter what you order the shipping is the same... $6.95. I ordered a small part(less than 1#) and shipping was 6.95. I ordered a set of weld rims shipping was 6.95 for the whole set. I guess it 6.95 per order.

Just curious, why do you want just online dealers??

The summit charge is a handling/processing fee......shipping is actually "free". I have bought almost everything from Summit, Jegs is also good. I have purchased stuff from from www.holcomania.com they have good stuff.

Ahh.. that must be Holcomb motorsports. I didn't know they had a web page. I've dealt with them many many times. Not the cheapest but a damn good dealer.

Try Gene Evans Ford for Ford SVT parts. Great prices and online ordering too.

Summit is great, but I usually buy just parts from www.stangparts.com they're fast and nice and I've never had a problem with them. BTW Summits site is www.summitracing.com
