Testimonials
I ordered a 2017cc engine from Chico. I even went down to his shop in SoCal to meet him. Very clean and organized shop and I was surprised how young he was given his reputation. When I got it home, I uncrated it and was very impressed. It was beautiful.
I bolted it up to my refurbished ‘69 pan that had been waiting for it, pulled some wires, and dropped an extended fuel line into a gas can. Hit the start button and it fired right up and sounded great. Twin 44's all set up and a dyno sheet shows 126hp @ 5500.
I could not be happier. A little pricy but you'll get what you pay for. Spec out any part or manufacturer and Chico will put it together for you. - stock doc
Just installed my 1904cc from CPR and HOLY CRAP!!! This thing runs like a raped ape and idles like a dream. It has tons of torque from 2k up and pulls amazingly. On top of this quality build, Anibal is a stand up guy with HUGE patience and great customer service. He answered 2 of my calls while he was on vacation, for example. He's got a customer for life. - jastabler
