My Chico Performance Engine is a work of art. Chico has paid great attention to all of the details and it shows in the final product. Thank you, Chico for all of your hard work that you did on this engine.

I've had 4 Chico built engines so far and they are top-notch engines ! He stands behind his product and he is always ready to help anyone ! I'd definitely recommend him for any engine needs.

I got a 1776cc turnkey from Chico - dyno sheet lists 135HP at 5500 and 137 LB FT TQ from 3500-4500. Got it in my 63 sedan last night and this thing is SICK!!! Very powerful and runs great! I couldn't ask for anything more!!! Chico is the man! He’s definitely a great guy to deal with.  I would definitely recommend him to everyone in the market for a turnkey - you will not be disappointed!

I just got my 2110cc installed in my 63. Man, this thing is awesome!  Still going through the break in, but quick shifting at 3500 this thing barks 2nd!!!! Chico is a man of his word and it was an absolute pleasure dealing with him on the whole engine build.  When he sounded busy or said he would call back, he took the time to do so.  Try finding that with some other builders out there.  Chico delivered every thing and more (quality, time, etc.) with this engine.

I am very happy with my 1776cc torque master 10. Still breaking her in, but the power is just what I was looking for. The mpg is just what he said it'd be. Fast friendly and always there to take care of you. Thanks Chico!

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.
