CLAY SMITH CAMS
CANADIAN DISTRIBUTOR
Mr. Horsepower

The "Mr. Horsepower" legacy began in the early 1930's with Camshafts that were literally hand-ground by Clay Smith to high performance specifications. His technical expertise was recognized by the industry and racers were mesmerized by the overall performance of his products. Although he specialized in camshafts, his high performance engines were setting world speed records. Clay's strict attention to a high standard of quality and performance made his components among the most asked for items in racing.

Clay Smith Engineering Company was founded in the late 40's. Since that time, the company has strived to maintain the standards set up by Clay himself. Throughout the years, Clay Smith Engineering has continued to push the boundaries of engine performance through constant research and development. Following the death of Clay Smith in 1954, "Red" Wilson took over the reigns, and then in the 70's, George "Honker" Striegel took on the challenge.
"Honker" had a reputation of his own in the racing industry, setting numerous records in the super stock classes in drag racing and then with the ever famous Henry J (the Henry Honker). He also experienced great success in boat racing where he won numerous world championships and was the first driver to acquire the APBA Triple Crown with his competition jet (the American Revolution). George's high performance engines are in great demand and he has established himself as a competitor in the high performance world - continuing the legacy of Clay Smith by always building a high quality product and proudly displaying the now famous "Mr. Horsepower Woodpecker."

In the 80's and on into the 90's George has established a Clay Smith Team dedicated to building quality products that set the standard for the industry. Joining him in this endeavor is his daughter, Sherry, whose goal is customer satisfaction through quality service and timely delivery and several other dedicated employees who support their motto
