Ready-to-ship inventory

In stock & ready to ship! With millions of dollars of inventory on hand, we're able to ship most items the day you order.

Did you know that Performanceparts.com is an Authorized Retailer for every brand we sell?

Perfomanceparts.com is authorized to sell every brand found on our site. That means you can confidently buy Edelbrock, Crane, Holley, B&M, Centerforce, Hooker, MSD, Hurst, Mallory, Richmond, Comp Cams, Moroso, Taylor-- and every other brand we offer.

Why should you purchase from an Authorized Retailer?

  1. You can count on your performance part's warranty being honored. Some manufacturers will only honor a request for service under warranty if the item was purchased from an Authorized Retailer. You may be asked to show proof of purchase in the form of a dated invoice from an Authorized Retailer. You can purchase confidently knowing that Performanceparts.com is authorized to sell and support the products we offer.
  2. You benefit because many manufacturers provide Authorized Retailers with thorough, ongoing training. Our staff members regularly receive product training to assure that we know the parts we sell, and have the resources to answer your customer service inquiries quickly and accurately. Our factory relationships mean that should we need more information than we have in-house, we have direct access to our manufacturers' sales and engineering departments for quick and accurate responses.

How do I return a product?

You can return any item for any reason within the first 30 days, for an exchange or a refund for the full amount of the merchandise — whichever you prefer. All we ask is that the item be complete and in like new condition with all original packing. Items that are incomplete or unpackaged may not be acceptable, or subject to a restock/repackage charge.

Follow these steps for a speedy return:

Contact us

If you think an item you ordered might be defective, please speak to one of our Technical Advisors first. Often, they can help you solve setup and installation problems by trouble shooting with you over the phone. To reach our Technical Advisors, email customer service or call 1-800-585-0683 and please have your order number ready. If it turns out you do need to return a product, request a Return Authorization number.

Print the Return Authorization

Simply print the Return Authorization and place it on the box(s) as a shipping label with the part(s) to be returned. The Return Authorization will provide the correct return address. Returns without the proper Return Authorization will not be accepted.

Pack carefully

The item(s) should be returned in the manufacturer's box with all original hardware, manuals, and related accessories included. Please use the original outside box if possible. A safely packaged and complete return is less likely to incur damage or restocking fee. It is your responsibility to return new products in new, salable condition.

Ship

When shipping your return to us, we strongly suggest that you use traceable United Parcel Ground Service from your nearest staffed UPS facility. Performanceparts.com cannot be responsible for lost or misdirected returns. All returns must be sent prepaid to the address we give you on the Return Authorization—no collect shipments will be accepted. Insure the returned part for its full value to protect your self against loss. Do not ship any return to Performanceparts.com's mailing address.

Parts returned beyond 30 days from the date of purchase are subject to a restocking fee of 15%. Sorry, handling and shipping charges are not refundable.

How long does it take for a return to process?

After we receive your package, we normally process your exchange or refund within 72 hours.

How do I make an exchange?

To exchange new parts log-in to your account, select "Order Status", and then select "Return Item" on the order number that contains the item you purchased. Select the items you wish to return for exchange and select "Submit". Then select "New Order" and order the items you wish to order in place of the items being returned. Performanceparts.com customer service will generate a Return Authorization document for the items you wish to return and e-mail it to you within one business day, and your replacement order will be processed immediately (pending credit approval). Sorry, handling and shipping charges are not refundable.

Should I save the paperwork and packing material that I received with my order?

The order number printed on the front of your invoice is important if you need to call for assistance or a return. The invoice is also proof of purchase for warranty service, should you ever need it. We also recommend that you keep the original box and packing materials until your parts are out of warranty.

Damaged

Inspect your shipment upon arrival! Report any damage or shipping related breakage immediately to the carrier.

Warranties

Warranty exchanges are made only for like items. As a factory authorized retailer we abide by our manufacturers warranty policies. Used items still under manufacturers warranty may have to be inspected by a factory representative before a refund or exchange can be authorized. In some cases manufacturers may ask you to return the product directly to the factory for factory service or replacement.

The full manufacturer's warranty always applies to every product we sell!

Taxes

For US customers, only Tennessee Residents will have applicable sales taxes added to final order. You will be notified of total charges, including taxes, before shipment of products.

Shipping

Your order is delivered by UPS in 1-7 business days.

If your order is being shipped to any of the 50 U.S. states, it will arrive at your shipping address in 1-7 business days. (Saturday, Sunday and national holidays are not considered business days for delivery purposes.) If your billing address is a PO Box, please include your physical address as the ship-to address, UPS wil not accept PO Boxes as addresses. Some oversize, due to weight or dimension, parcels must be shipped by LTL (truck) carriers. You will be notified with a freight cost before these items are billed and shipped.
