Ken is a cool Dude! He will do anything he can to help your Pontiac, without any pressure. If you ever get the chance to see one of his cars run do it, He always put's on a show.

Ken is a hardcore racer, machinist and business owner. His many years (he's old, though not as old as Gach) racing Pontiacs and Chevies in a number of configurations positions Ken as a golden resource for guys like me lacking the solid background that Ken has.
Also, judging my the insane amounts of money that he's spent on a 9.40 Pontiac, (he'd be running 7's with a Chevy, given the same money!)he's comitted to making the Pontiac fly. Ken has a "been there, done that" attitude toward Chevrolets. He prefers the challenge of running, quite successfully I might add, an underdog like the traditional Pontiac motor. Give him a call. When you have him on the line, request that he spring for a real ad in HPP next time around. By the way, he lives in BrookSville, not Brookville, FL. |

Well I went to take a tour of Ken's shop recently, since I've been talking to him about installing a set of 4 bolt mains in my motor. It was very clean and well organized. There was virtually every piece of equipment there that would be required to machine and assemble anything from a heavy street combo to a full race setup. There are Pontiac engines in every stage of assembly all over this shop (and a very nice Funnycar) and Ken proves he knows how to make reliable HP every time he shows up at the track. Anyone considering building a motor should definitely talk to Ken when making decisions about where their work will be done.

I have talked to Ken many times, I'm very impress on his knowledge on head work, and picking the right cam. After working with Chevy's, then trying to make a Pontiac run' is no easy task, he has done that very well. We all know machine work is one of the most important parts, and his attention to detail in that department is excellent. Not very offen you find a Pontiac guy who not only builds Pontiac's but also has a full machine shop, and Speed shop. Any time you can eliminate having to dealing with two different people is defiantly a plus.
