Peterson Fluid Systems: Race-Proven Fluid Management
When professional racing teams need absolute confidence in their engine oiling systems, they turn to Peterson Fluid Systems. Based in Longmont, Colorado, Peterson has built a decades-long reputation as a leading manufacturer of advanced fluid control components — engineering products that perform under the extreme RPM, high G-forces, and punishing conditions found in the world's most demanding motorsports.
Peterson's philosophy is simple: every component in your oiling system matters. The brand designs and produces a comprehensive range of dry sump and wet sump products, from pumps and tanks to breather cans, filter mounts, fittings, and accessory drives. Each product is precision-machined, hand-assembled, and inspected before leaving the facility — a commitment to quality that has earned Peterson a loyal following among professional and grassroots racers alike.
The brand's reach spans virtually every corner of motorsport. Peterson Fluid Systems components have been proven in NASCAR, NHRA, IHRA, IndyCar, World of Outlaws, USAC sprint cars, and grueling off-road events like the Baja 1000 and Dakar Rally. Top-tier teams including Robert Yates Racing, Dale Earnhardt Inc., and Roush Racing have relied on Peterson oil tanks and pumps to keep their engines healthy through hundreds of race laps.
At the heart of the Peterson lineup are their renowned engine oil tanks, which feature hand-welded aluminum construction, internal baffling, and unique oil control designs engineered for superior deaeration and consistent oil pressure delivery — even under the most violent cornering and braking loads. Paired with a precise engine oil drain plug, Peterson's system components are designed to work together as a complete, race-ready solution.
Beyond the racetrack, Peterson also serves OEM manufacturers, supercar builders, military contractors, and aerospace companies — a testament to the versatility and engineering rigor built into every product they make.
