RCD Engineering

RCD believes our customers deserve our best effort in all phases of design, manufacturing, and service. We are proud of what we sell and stand strongly behind our products. We create the highest quality parts and provide the best service–all while striving to improve and having lots of fun. Our parts are used on all of the top competitors of NHRA as well as other racing circuits and can be found on a street car near you. RCD Engineering began in 1967 in Southern California as a source for original racing products and to benefit the owner in his own racing venture as a car owner/driver. RCD's first product was a removable blower mount starter for funny cars and dragsters--one that is still manufactured and sold today and one that serves as the industry's standard. For the past 46 years, RCD has continuously improved racing technology through close connections with our customers as well as the organizations that set the rules. We remain closely aligned with many manufacturers of blocks, heads, cranks, cams, and blowers, and stay in-tune with the needs of the customer. This allows us to provide innovative precision parts that mate well with other manufacturer's components. RCD has worked extensively over the years with Gates Rubber to develop and test new profiles and materials for the future of the sport. RCD is also the largest Gates blower belt distributor and the exclusive distributor for the 11mm profile used by the majority of professional teams. All parts are machined from solid billet stock or forgings, using aircraft quality metals, including steel, aluminum, magnesium, and titanium. These materials are chosen for their quality, weight and other properties to withstand the rigors of 300+ mph racing. Each year we continue to improve existing products and introduce new ones. Whether you are an existing customer or a potential one, we seek to engineer a better future for you.
