About Us

Founded in 1967 as central New York's premier engine, machine and speed shop, today's Burkart Automotive represents two generations of family-owned and operated history. As the area's racing and performance hotspot, Burkart Automotive helped mainstream drag racing by bringing such big names as Bruce Larson, Tommy Ivo, King and Marshall and an array of other kings of the quarter mile on site for appearances as they worked their way across the northeast racing circuit.

Racing and high performance is a staple of the Burkart family; Burkart Automotive is managed by Phil Burkart Jr., who has been involved with the store since his first steps and now takes part in every aspect of the operation. Phil's own racing career anchors his love of high performance and speed. Since his first drag race at Cicero, NY's Esta Drag Strip at age 14, Phil has had a taste for racing, licensing for an IHRA Top Alcohol funny car in 1991, then moving to NHRA in a nitro funny car in 1998. Phil's professional drag racing career includes driving for Rex Nix, Paul Gratton in the Nitro Fish funny car, Bill Blomgren, Paul Smith, culminating with three years behind the wheel of the Worsham Racing Checker Schucks Kragen funny car and a two-event job piloting the injured Castrol GTX funny car of none other than the King of the Drag Strip, John Force. Burkart currently drives Nick Bonafante's US Male nostalgia funny car at match races across the northeast.

Burkart Automotive specializes in engine building and machine work, 4x4 and off road accessories, and speed and performance gear. "The mission of the team at Burkart Automotive is simple - to be the best choice in the industry for your high-quality speed and performance needs. Whether it's a simple part or a high-performance custom engine, we want your experience to be just right. Our service, our integrity and our lineup of high quality products are the top priorities here at Burkart Automotive, and our goal is to bring you into our family when you buy from us."

Racing Head Service - the legendary innovator of airflow technology - offers the ultimate in cylinder head, engine block and intake manifold performance. Utilizing the resources of the industry leading COMP Performance Group engineering and development team and the most sophisticated engine technology in the performance aftermarket, RHS has re-established itself as a leader in airflow design. With innovative cylinder head designs and porting techniques, the company became a performance icon during the 1970's and '80s in both circle track and drag racing competition. In 1976, the RHS management team, recognizing the direct performance linkage between cylinder heads and camshafts, launched a new company - Competition Cams. Throughout the '80s, RHS and COMP Cams became an amazing one-two punch for everything to do with racing. From their headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee, the two dominated NHRA and short track competition with their racing heads, valve train components and engines. Today, COMP Cams has grown to be the dominant force in valve train technology and an established leader in the automotive aftermarket. As the company that started it all, RHS is proud to re-emerge as a member of the COMP Performance Group with the industry's largest and most advanced airflow technology team. By combining knowledge with valve train experts at COMP Cams for more comprehensive R&D efforts, our engineers have been able to develop some of the highest flowing, best performing cylinder heads and intake manifolds in the performance aftermarket. And recently, RHS has designed the most advanced engine block ever built for GM LS engines. These developments have helped usher in a new era of performance engine technology . . . and you are there to witness the event!
