Shipping Policy
Downtime costs money. We pull, pack and ship in-stock parts the same day from our Denver warehouse — and tell you up front how it gets to you and when.
01 Same-Day Shipping
In-stock parts ordered by 3:00 PM Mountain Time on a business day ship the same day. Orders placed after the cutoff, on weekends, or on holidays ship the next business day.
Custom and built-to-order items (such as performance heads) ship after the build is complete — the product page lists the lead time, and a specialist confirms it on your order.
02 Free Freight Over $500
Orders over $500 shipping within the lower 48 states qualify for free standard ground freight. The discount applies automatically at checkout to the goods subtotal (before taxes and core charges).
- Applies to standard ground service only — expedited and air upgrades are billed at cost
- Oversize / freight-class items may ship LTL; free freight still applies to qualifying orders
- Does not apply to Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. territories or international destinations
03 Methods & Carriers
We choose the fastest, best-protected method for each part. Small parts go parcel; heavy or oversize items go LTL freight.
| Method | Typical items | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Parcel Ground | Injectors, gaskets, seals, hardware | UPS / FedEx, 1–5 business days |
| Expedited / Air | Any in-stock part | 2-Day & Overnight at cost |
| LTL Freight | Cylinder heads, rebuild kits, manifolds | Palletized, curbside delivery |
| Will-Call Pickup | Any in-stock part | Denver, CO warehouse |
04 Estimated Transit Times
Business days after the order ships, for standard ground from Denver, CO. These are carrier estimates, not guarantees.
| Region | Ground transit |
|---|---|
| Mountain / Rocky Mountain | 1–2 business days |
| Midwest & Southwest | 2–3 business days |
| West Coast & South | 2–4 business days |
| Northeast & Southeast | 3–5 business days |
| LTL Freight (heavy items) | Add 1–3 business days |
05 Heavy & Freight Items
Cylinder heads, inframe kits and other heavy parts ship on a pallet via LTL freight. A few things to know so delivery goes smoothly:
- The carrier calls to schedule a delivery appointment for residential addresses
- Liftgate service is available if you don't have a dock or forklift — ask at checkout
- Delivery is curbside; have help or equipment ready to receive the pallet
- Inspect the pallet before signing (see Shipping Damage)
06 Order Tracking
You'll get a tracking number by email as soon as your order ships. Parcel shipments update automatically; for LTL freight you'll receive the carrier's PRO number and contact info to schedule delivery.
Lost the email or no updates after 2 business days? Call or text us and we'll chase it down.
07 Shipping Damage & Claims
Every shipment is insured. Damage is rare, but if it happens we make it right — fast — when you follow these steps:
- Inspect before you sign — note any damage on the delivery receipt
- Photograph the packaging and the part before unpacking further
- Report damage within 5 business days of delivery
- We file the carrier claim and ship a replacement — you keep working
08 Core Return Shipping
Orders with a refundable core charge include a prepaid return label for most parts. Send your old, drained, rebuildable core back within 60 days to get your core deposit refunded. Full details are on our Returns & Refund Policy.
09 Backorders & Lead Times
We carry deep stock, but occasionally an item is on backorder or built to order. When that happens:
- The product page and your order confirmation show the expected lead time
- We'll contact you with options if a date changes materially
- Multi-item orders can ship complete or in stages — your call
10 Alaska, Hawaii & International
We ship to Alaska, Hawaii and U.S. territories at calculated rates (free-freight promotions don't apply). International orders are quoted case-by-case; the customer is responsible for all duties, taxes and customs fees. Call a specialist for an international quote.
