Steve Coppock, founder and president of Coppock Performance and Engineering, recently retired after a 40-year career in the commercial nuclear power industry. He held numerous leader roles including president of the STARS Alliance - a company that provides oversight and support for some of the nation’s highest performing power plants. Steve’s background is unique. In addition to a earning a degree in nuclear engineering, he also has been an ASE certified technician since 1981 and an ASE certified master technician since 1988.

Steve is passionate about cars and trucks, and he still has his first car - a flathead powered 1937 Ford coupe. His most recent project was a Gen V LT1 -T56 swap into a 1973 Camaro. He also owns a flathead powered 1924 Model T race car, and a 1969 Pontiac Firebird 400.  

We take great pride in our high quality parts and the exceptional results they achieve. We have all suffered with poor quality, ill-fitting parts and disappointing results. But the flathead Ford supercharger parts CPE makes and sells -- based on Joe Abbin’s designs -- have been proven to work for over 25 years with nearly 300 installations, dozens of dyno tests, and detailed computer modeling. Joe’s designs are stunningly beautiful AND they deliver exceptional horsepower and torque. In 2020, CPE was granted a license to manufacture and sell Joe’s flathead Ford supercharger kits. I've known Joe for almost 20 years, and we are like minded when it comes to high quality parts and exceptional results.

The supercharger kit parts (manifold, pulleys, brackets, etc.) sold by CPE are machined in Phoenix, AZ with USA-sourced materials. The parts are machined at one of the most respected CNC shops in the area - a family-owned business that provides CNC services to aerospace companies.

The supercharger part of the flathead Ford kit is a Holley/Weiand roots style design that has a decades-long record of performance and reliability. In 2022, Holley shifted their focus to other products and discontinued the Weiand superchargers. CPE was able to purchase all of the excess inventory for the smaller Weiand superchargers. Having this inventory provides CPE complete supply chain control for the flathead Ford supercharger kits that we sell, which is great for our customers.
