So I just got the new ISKY cam for my engine. I couldn't help but notice the tag on the box. It says that all Iskenderian parts are 100% guaranteed to be made in the USA by American workers, and with American materials. They are also a family owned business. I think this is awesome. It is something I did not know when I bought it, but now I am pretty happy I did go ISKY. I'm a big supporter of American made. We need more stuff like this on the market.
Last year at the CHRR I walked out of my hotel room to get a free cup of coffee in the office. I got my coffee and saw this guy sitting at a table drinking his free cup of coffee. It was Ed Iskenderian. I said hello and he asked me to sit down. We talked for a few minutes about racing and his old shop. What a great guy. A true hero of the Hot Rod world and he took time to have a cup of coffee with me. I buy Isky parts.
He will give you a personal tour of his shop/business and talk about the "old days". I highly recommend going if you happen to be in the area.
Call Ed up at the shop and get a tour of the place. Talk about going back in time when you go through the doors.
I put an Isky in my T, my dad ran nothing but Iskys in the 60s. One of the true legends. Scholar and a gentleman
>>>>>,I'm ruunin' an old '60's Isky 550 Super LeGarra in my SB Blower Motor ,,it's over 40 years old ,,and is still perfect ,,,
<<>>> ,, Bruce Crower came along back then too ,i ran his cam in my 396 BB C/Gasser in '68 ,,i was a Crower Dealer in the late '60's when i was in Alaska ,,,great cams n kits ,,
That good news makes me feel warm an' fuzzy all over.... That's part of the reason I bought my '05 pony. It was built here in Michigan by Americans.
