Arrow Grand opening!

Come by for the GRAND OPENING of our new shop. Masport Speed Shop has teamed up with SRC (Street Rods and Classics) and Superior Transmissions to form a new performance center called PERFORMANCE PERFECTION. All three companies will work together in the PERFORMANCE PERFECTION CENTER to offer complete solutions for high performance work. Our 11,200 sq/ft shop offers all services in-house, inlcuding engine builds, EFI tuning, suspension and driveline work and performance transmissions. We have 10 service bays under air-conditioning, a mighty-sweet customer lounge and showroom and the most important part of any proper speed shop, experience! Between myself, George and his guys at SRC and the Superior Trans family, we have over 173 years of experience building speed and performance safely and reliably. Come by on Saturday, February 12th (this weekend) between 10 am and 4 pm to celebrate with us! As always, we're thankful and feel truly blessed that we've had such great customers over the years and we want you to celebrate with us as we strive to serve you better through our new shop.

Think nothing of it brother! I'm just happy we're crankin' out some of the coolest rides around. Here are a couple more shots of some of the first cars to bless the newly-relocated dyno: A Mosler GTR with Twin Turbo LS7 and an all-steel '36 Ford Pheaton with an EFI 351 SVO engine.

Many thanks to everyone who showed up to celebrate! YOUR MY PEEPS!!!

Wow, Dan! It's been a while!

What a nice "come-up," huh? The place looks amazing! Must be nice to walk in to work every day at a car shop with so much space around you. Hope you and yours are well, and your amazing tune is still kicking *** after so long!

Sorry for the late reply...It was 294 hp @ 5400 rpm and 296 ft/lbs @ 3900. Not too shabby considering the car weighs less than 2900 lbs!

Thanks, brother!! As always, my best to you and yours! I'm sure that as soon as Jr dispatches the baby seat he'll be demanding the keys to pop's hot rod!
