I predicted he would win the challenge this year. 1st and 3rd with 2 entries, not bad.

Alot of excellent engine builders out there. Tony just happens to rank up near the top and they are excellent people to deal with as well, very friendly and competetive prices.

Now living 1800 miles away, I was seriously contemplating shipping my stuff to him, since he builds for people all over the country.

However, after hearing nothing but good things about Paul, and their ability to also make power with any brand engine, I have no issue with making the 400 mile round trip to use him. I figure that's pretty close considering I was looking at builders as far away as California/Nevada. I've been turned off by the builders located in the Phoenix metro area. I don't mind to travel for quality work.

Yes sir. I've talked to a couple of people on the board here, and met Mike in person. Mikes a super nice guy that has used Paul for several builds and is extremely happy with the work. I've been talking with Paul about some engines I have to do and have decided he's the guy I'm going to. He makes power with any brand, not just Pontiac. To me that speaks volumes that they know what they are doing. Looks like alot of trips to Tucson for me

I had Paul do an engine for me last year. Have not got it installed yet but Paul far exceeded my expectations! He is truly a great and talented guy.
Wish I lived that close to him as it would be very cool to be able to deal in person but I am more then willing to ship my junk to him.

Thanks for the link. I love the attention to detail. It's the machinists like this that take pride in their work that is hard to find.
