325-page Hardcover Edition

This book begins with Vic Edelbrock Sr. and his journey to Southern California from Kansas. It continues with the story of the Edelbrock Equipment Company's growth from a simple shop at the rear of a gas station to an American institution. Woven throughout is the history of racing, from the first drag race in Santa Barbara to the dry lakes in Southern California. It is the story of a company whose influence shaped automotive performance. And it is the story of an iconic family business that has preserved its values and its spirit of independence, creativity, philanthropy, and fun over three generations.
