I started this post to just make people aware of the of the manufacturers of performance and aftermarket equipment that have recently gone out of business. Its good to keep track of this as it may influence your buying decison.
Here are the ones that I am aware of:
1. Performance Wheels- a large manufacturer of aluminum wheels. They made beautiful stuff!
2. Crane Cams- reported in another post but its true. They are done.
3. Northern Auto Parts- a long time discount parts supplier. Remember their catalogs?
4. GM Performance Parts div. No surprise here.
5. Powertrain Control Solutions- makers of stand alone electronic transmisson control modules.
6. Haltech USA- makers of aftermarket ECM's
7. FastFieros of Dallas

Fast Fiero's is gone?
Another one bites the dust!

I am working on a lot of custom parts for my Fiero, I may just have to start selling them to others as well?

WOW. Didn't know that. There are about 10 different brand names under the Holley corporate umbrella, but when your mainstay product is an expensive low technology antique reproduction this is very understandable. ,
