Any experience with Summit brand engine parts?

I noticed Summit Racing has thier own brand engine parts for very cheap. A camshaft/lifter kit is $70. Piston ring set for $20. This seems suspiciously cheap to me. Does it have any quality, or is just get what you pay for kind of junk?

I have had great experience with ordering from Summit. I have bought numerous small items from them. They send you an email confirmation right away, and another when it goes out the door so you can track shipping.

I bought my GM RamJet 350 from them. They beat every deal on the net, shipped for free and had it in stock when I was ready to make the order....

I know they will do a good job shipping, but I am curious if thier own branded products has any quality to them.

100% money back guarantee . bought thousands of dollars of parts from them
and they have always went out of there way to keep me happy when they screw up..and everybody does. they have to live with what they sell as well.

just my 2 cents

Have never had any sort of issues with summit. As above have spent thousands of dollars there. Gets here just like they said it would.

Also spent thousands w/ them on the truck and a car. They even payed half to have my RCI fuel cell rewelded across the bottom because it cracked even though it was a month after the warranty had expired. I haven't done many of their brand of engine parts, but w/ their return policy and how great they are to deal with, I doubt you will have any issues with it and if you do I'm sure they'll b great about it.

I have spent quite a bit with them and never had an issue.

I have used alot of their internal engine parts (summit brand) on street and race rebuilds never had any problems with them, they have a name to uphold and work well with you also. Alot of there engine parts are from popular brand names rebadged as Summit brand since they are such a high profile company dealing in high quantity sales, quality does not seem to be deminised IMO.

Summit Racing is one of the best for performance part!! They have great customer service and when somthing didn't fit (mostly becuase I ordered the wrong parts) you can return it with no problems.

i've bought many parts from summit and they are tops for customer service as well as good performing parts of their own line. i've got a set of alt. and pwr. steering brackets for a long wtr. pump set-up on my '49 gmc and they fit grest the first time and there was zero issues w/ quality . thats why if i cant get what i need at my local advance auto i'll only go to summitracing!

there customer serive is great and their shipping. i think their summit brand products aren't worth a dang. bought a line-lock from them and the hole wher the brake fliud flows through was drilled off center, went to bleed the brakes and had mt rustmore comin outta the fittings. had to repaint my innerfnedre fromw ehre it stripped off the paint. also their summit brand tachometers do not read accurate or last. chris.

I have used Summit branded parts. I have used their cam and lifter kits, timing chains (speed-pro box), bearings (clevite CL-77), rings (trw), and gaskets (fel-pro). I also bought Summit headers (pacesetter), and a torque converter(TCI). They use quality parts in their boxes. I am "value oriented" so their branded parts are fine by me.
