Chico built us the 1776 turnkey and it's awesome! Aside from the quality and craftsmanship, the motor was delivered early and his customer service is outstanding. Anytime you put a brand new motor into a 37 yr old car, there are going to be some quirks. Chico answered every single one of my calls and gave me precise and accurate answers without fail.  Nowadays customer service calls for major companies get answered in India. Chico is good ole fashioned USA honesty and integrity. Bottom line is if you want the best, call my friend Chico!!

I purchased a turnkey 1914cc stroker & tranny from Chico Performance Racing and have been blown away by the power and performance she puts out. Chico was great to work with, allowing me to make changes to the initial package deal as he built the engine. Chico helped me put together an engine that would throw your head back yet give me the reliability to drive +/- 75 miles a day as my daily driver. I own a few air-cooleds and always love the conversations I strike up with strangers on the cars. Now when I lift the deck lid everyone takes a step back in awe! Chico's engines are works of art down to the smallest detail. I am 150% satisfied with the product and customer service and would recommend anyone looking for an engine builder to call and just chat with Chico. You will be pleasantly surprised with your experience.
