(626)444-49191930 Doreen Ave., South El Monte, CA 91733 www.esslingeracing.com Letter From The President Esslinger Engineering Inc. is a family owned business founded in 1968 to develop a brake system for the California craze of off-roading. We tested these brake systems on our own vehicles and sold them nationwide. As the popularity of off-road racing grew, our interests moved in the direction of four cylinder Ford racing engines and high-performance equipment. By January 1989, we became the largest manufacturer of aftermarket components for the 2.0 and 2.3 O.H.C. Ford engine. We have the knowledge and experience to make you a winner. The following pages contain just a portion of the parts we manufacture and supply.
