  • Fast Shipping: Competition staples and hardware ship quickly from U.S. warehouses.

Helpful Notes

  • Hitch size: Many clubs use 2.5" receivers for higher classes—verify your class before choosing BHP2000 (2") vs BHP2001 (2.5").
  • Air shutoff: Cable routing should be smooth and visible to the flagman; test the guillotine at tech.
  • Traction control: Bars tame wrap and wheel-hop; re-torque heims/bolts after first event.
  • Safety gear: Turbo blankets and SFI bellhousings are common tech items—confirm your sanctioning body’s current rulebook.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the CPP Competition Air Shutoff universal for my 24-valve?

Yes—our guillotine shutoff is universal and widely used on Cummins builds. Verify cable length and mounting to suit your intake piping.

Which sled hitch should I run—2" or 2.5"?

Follow your class rules. We stock BHP2000 (2") and BHP2001 (2.5") adjustable hitches plus clamp-on sled stops.

Do I need traction bars even if I don’t launch hard?

Yes—bars reduce axle wrap that can break u-joints and leaf springs. See CPP weld-on bars or WCFab universal kits.

What safety items are typically checked at tech?

Air shutoff function, secure hitch, driveshaft loop, and containment (e.g., turbo blanket or SFI bellhousing) depending on class.

Where can I find other chassis parts that help with hook consistency?

Check Steering & Suspension for track/track bar options that keep the front end planted.
