We specialize in rebuilding and repairing pre-war automotive components, but we do not provide technical support. If you would like us to rebuild a component and have questions before sending it in, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to clarify what we can do as part of a rebuild.
Please note that technical support emails will not receive a response.
If you are inquiring about a part for purchase, or you have an issue with a part you previously purchased from Straight Eight, you are welcome to contact us. However, purchasing a part does not include remote troubleshooting or adjustments — for example, we cannot tune or diagnose your carburetor via email simply because you purchased a needle and seat.
We are a small shop focused on hands-on restoration work, so our response time is typically 5–7 days. Time spent answering detailed technical questions takes us away from the cars in the shop, which directly impacts our ability to serve customers who have entrusted us with their components.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to helping with your rebuild or parts needs.
