Is Tuff Paw Still In Business?
Wanted to purchase something, but they're not answering the phone, or responding to messages or emails.

Yes, Mike is still in business. I know he is off racing at the Jegs super quick race at Gateway this weekend.

I'm really not trying to be a wise guy, but can't you order directly from the website?

If it seems that bracket racing has gotten too expensive for you, maybe you are just doing it wrong.

Maybe he was wanting them to make something custom? I had Blazin Bell Tech do some custom work for me back in the day.

Reasonable question. I tried to order off of the website, but their on-line ordering system doesn't handle orders with Canadian shipping addresses. Thanks for mentioning it though. I suppose you never know.

Had Mike at Tuff Paw make me a custom aluminum fuel tank a couple of months back, did a great job and the price was crazy cheap for what it was

I should note that I don't like asking these types of questions about people's businesses because it may cause some confusion, but I tried to reach them over a period of a few weeks before even considering asking a question like this on a public forum.
Thanks for the feedback. They seem to have some nice products, so I'm glad they're still around. I'll keep trying.

We have contact!
I dealt with a very nice gentleman named Mike. I ordered one part made to measure, and some off the shelf parts. Mike was very knowledgeable, and handled everything from order info to invoicing and shipping within a day.
Looking forward to receiving these parts.

Thanks for the help here.

Follow up.
I ordered the K&N filter holder for the dragster scoop tray. Instead of just sending me the "off the shelf" size, Mike asked me to double check the measurements of my tray (which turned out to be slightly different) and then made one to fit.
The insert fit perfectly and the other parts I received were exactly as ordered, and all arrived in good shape and in good time.
Very happy with the products and service.
I would not hesitate to do business with Tuff Paw again, and would have no problem recommending them to a friend.
All's well that ends well. Thanks again for the help.

Just received my filter insert for my tray. Perfect! My son drilled out the old rivets and remounted the springs. Pretty slick design.

Tuff to beat the fit. Lucky I gave him the correct measurements.

Curious,
Has anyone noticed any difference between filter brands and track performance?
For example, any difference between a Fram High Flow filter and the same from K&N?

I have the same scoop tray filter system. Have switched between a K&N and a Napa filter at the track and didn't see any difference in performance. My engine is an approx 800 small block though. Your results may vary?

The Fram will filter better as far as microns of dirt. The K&N is just as good but only as good as your maintenance and re-oiling.
Mike has always added the personal touch to his products.
