Tilton

Tilton was founded in 1972 by McLane (Mac) & Adelle in El Segundo, California. Their mission was the same as it is today: to supply innovative, high-quality racing products at fair prices & with sound advice. Mac utilized his vast racing & machining experience, most notably as Crew Chief for the 1971 & 1972 Trans Am championship-winning Brock Racing Enterprises (BRE) team, to develop some of the most innovative products of their time. Adelle's excellent business sense & experience helped to ensure the long-term future of Tilton Engineering. As Tilton Engineering's reputation grew, demand for its products increased. Tilton relocated in 1979 to a larger facility in Buellton, California where it is still located today. Tilton produces a wide range of driveline & brake components, in-cockpit controls & starter motors. Driveline components include clutches, flywheels, bell housings & hydraulic release bearings. Brake components & in-cockpit controls include pedal assemblies, master cylinders, balance bars, proportioning valves & related accessories. Super Starters by Tilton were introduced in 1981 as the first high-torque mini-starter for racing applications.
