NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated interim financial statements of Edelbrock Corporation (the

of normal recurring adjustments) which the Company considers necessary for a
fair presentation. The June 30, 1997 balance sheet was derived from the balance
sheet included in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as
included in the Company's Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended June 30, 1997
(File No. 0-24802). Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions
         and Results of Operations

The following is a discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial
condition and results of operations of the Company for the three and six months
ended December 25, 1997. The following should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and related notes appearing elsewhere
herein.


      Overview

The Company was founded in 1938, and is one of America's leading manufacturers
and marketers of specialty performance automotive and motorcycle aftermarket
parts. The Company designs, manufactures, packages and markets performance
automotive and motorcycle aftermarket parts, including intake manifolds,
carburetors, camshafts, cylinder heads, exhaust systems, Performer IAS Shock
Absorbers and other performance components for most domestic V8 and selected V6
engines. The Company currently offers over 1,800 performance automotive and
motorcycle aftermarket parts for street, off-road, recreational and competition
vehicle use. In addition, the Company offers performance aftermarket manifolds,
camshafts, cylinder heads, air cleaners, and carburetors for Harley-Davidson
motorcycles.

In May 1997, the Company entered the performance shock absorber aftermarket
utilizing RICOR Racing and Development, L.P.'s patented "inertia sensitive
system." The Company is currently producing shock absorbers for 90 different
two-and four-wheel drive applications for Ford, Chevrolet and Chrysler
manufactured vehicles.

      Product Mix

The Company manufactures its own products and purchases other products designed
to the Company's specifications from third-party manufacturers for subsequent
packaging and distribution to the Company's customers. Generally, the Company
can achieve a higher margin on those products which it manufactures as compared
to those purchased from third-party manufacturers. Accordingly, the Company's
results of operations in any given period are affected by product mix. For
example, in recent years, the Company has experienced significant growth in the
sale of carburetors which it has purchased pursuant to a long-term contract with
a third-party manufacturer, which has negatively affected the Company's gross
margins.


      Manufacturing Capacity

In December 1996, the Company completed construction of a new 45,000 square-foot
facility on Company owned property contiguous to its current Exhaust facility in
Torrance, California. This facility is being utilized for the manufacture of
performance aftermarket shock absorbers, to expand exhaust system manufacturing
and to house additional corporate expansion including warehouse overflow.

In July 1997, the Company completed construction of 12,000 and 15,000 square
foot facilities on Company owned property at its foundry location in San
Jacinto, California. The 12,000 square foot facility is being utilized for
additional Foundry warehouse space and the 15,000 square foot facility houses
the Company's "QwikSilver" motorcycle parts division, which was relocated from
Apple Valley, California.

On July 31, 1997, the Company purchased 3.29 acres of improved land on two lots
for approximately $1.6 million. These properties will be utilized for future
corporate expansion and are located adjacent to the Company-owned Exhaust and
Shock Absorber facilities.

      Seasonality

The Company's sales are subject to seasonal variations. Customer orders and
sales are greatest in the third and fourth quarters of the Company's fiscal year
in anticipation of and during the spring and summer months. Accordingly,
revenues and operating income tend to be relatively higher in the third and
fourth fiscal quarters. This seasonality typically results in reduced earnings
for the Company's first and second fiscal quarters because a significant portion
of operating expenses are fixed throughout the fiscal year.



THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 25, 1997, COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
      DECEMBER 25, 1996:

      Revenues

Revenues increased 11.0% to $22.8 million for the three months ended December
25, 1997 from $20.6 million for the same period of 1996. This increase was
primarily the result of an increase of approximately $1.6 million, or 21.1%, in
the sale of Edelbrock Performer Series carburetors; an increase of approximately
$.7 million, or 61.5%, in the sale of aluminum automotive cylinder heads, and an
increase of approximately $.9 million, or 16.1%, in the sale of aluminum intake
manifolds.

    Cost of Sales

Cost of sales increased 13.9% to $14.2 million for the three months ended
December 25, 1997 from $12.5 million for the same period of 1996. As a percent
of revenues, cost of sales increased to 62.2% for the three months ended
December 25, 1997 from 60.6% for the same period of 1996. This increase in cost
of sales was primarily due to an increase in labor costs and depreciation
expense associated with the acquisition of new manufacturing capital equipment.

    Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 7.4% to $5.4 million for
the three months ended December 25, 1997 from $5.0 million for the same period
of 1996. This increase was primarily due to increased advertising expense and
sales commissions associated with increased sales. As a percent of revenues,
selling, general and administrative expense decreased to 23.7% for the three
months ended December 25, 1997 from 24.5% for the same period of 1996.


    Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense remained relatively unchanged for the three
months ended December 25, 1997 compared to the same period of 1996. As a percent
of revenues, research and development expense decreased to 2.7% for the three
months ended December 25, 1997 from 3.0% for the same period of 1996.


    Write-off of Uncollectible Receivable

In December 1997, the Company wrote-off approximately $1.9 million of unsecured
trade receivables relating to Super Shops, Inc. who filed for voluntary
petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code in
September 1997. Super Shops is currently requesting court approval to file for
voluntary liquidation under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code.

    Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased 20.7% to $69,000 for the three months ended December
25, 1997 from $87,000 for the same period of 1996. The decrease was primarily
due to a decrease in the principal amount of average debt outstanding.

    Interest Income

Interest income decreased 20.2% to $83,000 for the three months ended December
25, 1997 from $104,000 for the same period in 1996. The decrease was primarily
due to a decrease in the balance of the Company's excess working capital
investments.

    Taxes on Income

The provision for income taxes decreased to $276,000 for the three months ended
December 25, 1997 from $919,000 million for the 1996 period. The effective tax
rate for both periods was approximately 37%.

    Net Income

The Company's net income for the three months ended December 25, 1997 decreased
69.8% to $473,000 from $1.6 million for the same period of 1996. This decrease
was primarily the result of the write-off of the uncollectible receivable as
mentioned above.

SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 25, 1997, COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED
    DECEMBER 25, 1996

    Revenues

Revenues increased 9.5% to $43.2 million for the six months ended December 25,
1997 from $39.5 million for the same period of 1996. This increase was primarily
the result of an increase of approximately $2.4 million, or 16.5%, in the sale
of Edelbrock Performer Series carburetors, an increase of approximately $1.3
million, or 51.9%, in the sale of aluminum cylinder heads, and an increase of
approximately $1.2 million, or 11.3%, in the sale of aluminum intake manifolds.

    Cost of Sales

Cost of sales increased 11.1% to $26.6 million for the six months ended December
25, 1997 from $24.0 million for the same period of 1996. As a percent of
revenues, cost of sales increased to 61.5% for the six months ended December 25,
1997 from 60.6% for the same period of 1996. This increase in cost of sales was
primarily due to an increase in labor costs and depreciation expense associated
with the acquisition of new manufacturing capital equipment.

    Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 11.8% to $11.1 million for
the six months ended December 25, 1997 from $9.9 million for the same period of
1996. As a percent of revenues, selling, general and administrative expense
increased to 25.6% for the six months ended December 25, 1997 from 25.1% for the
same period of 1996. This increase was due primarily to increased sales
commissions and freight costs associated with increased sales, increases in
advertising expenditures, expenditures relating to the Company's new line of
Performer IAS shock absorbers, costs associated with the Company's continuing
efforts toward the implementation of the QS9000 quality standard, and expenses
relating to the relocation of the QwikSilver division.

    Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense increased 1.6% to $1.18 million for the six
months ended December 25, 1997 from $1.16 for the same period of 1996. As a
percent of revenues, research and development expense decreased to 2.7% for the
six months ended December 25, 1997 from 2.9% for the same period of 1996.

    Write-off of Uncollectible Receivable

In December 1997, the Company wrote-off approximately $1.9 million of unsecured
trade receivables relating to Super Shops, Inc. who filed for voluntary
petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code in
September 1997. Super Shops is currently requesting court approval to file for
voluntary liquidation under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code.

    Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased 20.7% to $138,000 for the six months ended December
25, 1997 from $174,000 for the same period of 1996. The decrease was primarily
due to a decrease in the principal amount of average debt outstanding.

    Interest Income

Interest income decreased 12.7% to $192,000 for the six months ended December
25, 1997 from $220,000 for the same period in 1996. This decrease was primarily
due to a decrease in the balance of the Company's excess working capital
investments.

    Taxes on Income

The provision for income taxes decreased to $948,000 for the six months ended
December 25, 1997 from $1.7 million for the 1996 period. The effective tax rate
for both periods was approximately 37%.

    Net Income

The Company's net income for the six months ended December 25, 1997 decreased
43.5% to $1.6 million from $2.9 million for the same period of 1996. This
decrease was primarily the result of the write-off of the uncollectible
receivable mentioned above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's liquidity requirements arise primarily from the funding of its
seasonal working capital needs and capital expenditures. Historically, the
Company has met these liquidity requirements through cash flow generated from
operating activities and with borrowed funds under the Company's $2.0 million
revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") which expires on
February 1, 1999. Due to seasonal demand for the Company's products, the Company
builds inventory during the first and second fiscal quarters in advance of the
typically stronger selling periods during the third and fourth fiscal quarters.




                                       10
<PAGE>   11

The Company believes that funds generated from future operations and funds
available under the Revolving Credit Facility together with cash balances will
be adequate to meet its working capital, debt service and capital expenditure
requirements through the next twelve months. The Company anticipates making
capital expenditures of approximately $7.0 million in fiscal year 1998 primarily
for the purchase of additional machinery and equipment for the Company's newly
constructed shock absorber facility, additional capital equipment to increase
the Company's production capacity and costs associated with converting the
Company's hardware and software systems to an Oracle "on-line" client-server
windows database operating on a Hewlett-Packard HP9000 server which was
implemented in January 1998.
