About Us

My name is Mike Chilando, and I am the founder and co-owner of ALKYDIGGER.COM, alongside my daughters Toni Taylor and Shannon Cullen. Alkydigger is the world’s largest supercharger dealer and one of the most respected, dedicated fuel injection specialists in the industry.

The company began as a happy accident in 2006. I was building a nostalgia front-engine dragster using an early Hemi when my plans changed mid-project. I listed the equipment for sale and quickly realized that at age 59, I was better suited to helping racers find the right parts than racing myself. That realization sparked what would become Alkydigger Inc.

We began servicing Hilborn, Enderle, Kinsler, and Engler fuel injection systems, building a reputation for honest advice, deep technical knowledge, and reliable results. In 2011, we launched Alkydigger.net to better market high-end fuel injection and performance equipment. In 2013, we purchased a new building and expanded again, continuing to grow alongside our customers. In 2022 we doubled the size of the building again.

Today, Alkydigger maintains an inventory of over 5,000 items and carries industry-leading brands including Enderle, Accufab, The Blower Shop, MSD, Holley, Aeromotive, Innovators West, RBZ Billet Equipment, RCD Engineering, Hilborn Engler, Phenix Hose, Schoenfeld Zoomies, Engler Machine, Pro-Filer, JoeBlo Speed, Joe Hunt Vertex Magnetos, Buffco Engineering (exclusive), SCE Gaskets, Williams Valve Covers & Oil Pans, K&R Electronics, APD Carburetors, ATM Carburetors, and more. We are also the world’s largest Waterman fuel pump dealer!

The Blower Shop superchargers are our premier product line. We stock more blowers than anyone in the United States and maintain nearly every component The Blower Shop manufactures. We assist customers with complete fuel system solutions and technical guidance for Enderle, Holley, Aeromotive, Waterman, and Hilborn Engler systems. We ship daily throughout the United States and internationally.

Alkydigger also offers complete restoration services for Hilborn, Enderle, Crower, Algon, Pete Jackson, and Kinsler injection systems. We flow-test fuel pumps and provide free technical advice to customers for whom we build and design fuel systems.

We are master dealers for Enderle, The Blower Shop, and RCD Engineering, and we stock MSD, Milodon, Vertex, Innovators West, and Jesel. Call us with a price on popular items and we may beat it.

Our team includes five dedicated employees, and we doubled the size of our facility in 2020. Alkydigger continues to grow because of our commitment to quality, honesty, and customer service.

The Alkydigger name comes from old drag racing announcers calling: “Bring those 'alkydiggers' to the line.” It’s a nod to our roots and a reminder of where this passion began.

We are proud to be associated with organizations including the Southwest Heritage Racing Association, The Mud Racers National Association, Middle Tennessee Pullers, East Coast Fuelers, The Meltdown Drags, Mid-Ohio Gassers, Mid-South Pullers, Funny Car Chaos, and the Nostalgia Drag Racing League, Kentucky Tractor Pullers.

Our mission is simple: deliver quality new and used race and custom parts on time, at a fair price, and tell customers what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear.

Just "good enough" is never enough at Alkydigger.
