Billy is a great guy, friendly, has a clean shop, right tools and machines, knows his stuff. Rich does the tuning there as well, they are only 5 mins from my house, and always take time to answer questions I have, they will build mild to wild to OMG high hp engines. They also do some suspension stuff. Great prices as well, high quality of work !

Billy know how to build some reliable HP and Rich has a ton of attention to detail when he has a car on the dyno. Can't go wrong with them.

I've used Rich to tune my car a couple times now, great results and easy to deal with.

Billy built me one friggin nice LS2 402, he is a pleasure to deal with....so were the guys at his shop....I am from Toronto, so the drive was just under 5 hours.....when I have the coin to burn I am going to have him build me a spare 402 short.....he had a lot of engines at his shop...plus I was extremely lucky and met Tom Kempf there and got the low down on his drag car....man what a lucky break for me...great bunch of guys. Billy had my engine built in no time....even though he had a lot of other engines to build....He assembled the long block, and I have not had a single issue with it....the shop was nice and clean, all very professional. His pricing was also more than fair.....this man knows his stuff and then some!!! As far as tuning goes, Arun from waterloo has done all my tuning... also does a lot of stuff for ECS too, so you know he more than knows his stuff. Thanks Arun.
