Subject: 1972 Camaro RS

Hello,
It’s been three or so years since I had you build me a 425 HP 350 fast burn double roller. After a wrench throwing three and a half year complete frame off restoration on my 1972 RS Camaro, I finished it and took 22 awards at car shows in the last two years, including a trophy for, “Best Engine”.
Thank all of you for building me a great engine and providing great customer support in the process!!

383/475 HP Stroker for C10

Just to let you know we got the 383 in the car lit the fuse this morning you don’t even have to touch the gas pedal fired right up ran like a top. The cam that you put in sounds good I believe you could set a glass of water on the breather an it would never fall off motor sets there dead still . After we get the front end on the car I’ll take some pictures and send them to you. Don’t surprised if this don’t drum up some business the rod shop that’s got the car were pretty impressed with the motor the way it ran an the throttle response. Right now I’m 100% satisfied.

Hi Matt,

After receiving my 430HP 350 Chev Cobra engine from your factory to New Zealand, I would like to thank and complement you and your team for the very professional job you have done on my engine. The engine arrived without a mark on it.

I am delighted with the attention to detail on the finish of the engine and your total commitment to my order details and accommodation of my late change of belt system change.

A very hansom engine admired by all who get to see it.

Thank you & kind regards,

Simon Dawn

Bruce & Matt along with Tim & Brad did a fantastic job building my new 383ci – 450hp Chevy stroker engine.
The Engine Factory service and professionalism is second to none. I can’t speak highly enough of the way this all went from the first time I contacted Matt about what Engine Factory could offer me through to the email updates everyday of the build with photos and video of my engine under construction and on the test bench when it was complete. This has been a very memorable experience that I’ve thoroughly enjoyed. I’d do it again without hesitation.
Thanks guys. You’re awesome!!

Thanks Engine Factory for building me an Excellent Engine with Transmission package for my 33 Hot Rod I will send additional pictures as I finish project.

Thanks engine factory for building an awesome engine for my Dream car.

Hi Matt & Bruce,

Well it is finally completed. If anyone out there is thinking of purchasing a engine look no further then the Engine Factory!! The engine was flawless as well as a heck of a looker. Working with Matt and Bruce was a pleasure, Matt walked me through the selection along with the process of putting the engine together. Bruce kept me up to date with photo’s of the engine from start to finish. This 383 Stroker with the 450 HP definitely puts the stock 190 HP to shame. Although this 1973 Corvette Stingray has a 3.08 rear-end (helps with gas mileage on weekend cruises) it will still lay down the rubber. The first time the wife drove it she took off from a stop and looked down at the speedometer and was doing 70 in nothing flat. Awesome!! Again it was a total pleasure working with both of you and yes I would do it again in a heartbeat, and will when we move on to another rod! Attached are some photos of the car.

Thanks again Matt & Bruce

I haven’t installed it yet but the motor looks fantastic, sounds great and with the serpentine system will show very nice. My shipper ran a fork through the bottom of the box so I refused shipment per Brice’s instructions and sent it back. The Engine Factory team went through it and replaced the pan and starter. Return shipment was perfect. I’ll update once I install it.

Subject: A Big Thank You !

Good Morning Chris,

Just a note to say thank you very much for having done my engine. I know that I have come to the best place on earth for engines. Bruce has been updating me on the progress of that engine, and I know that he has done a great job. This thank you goes out to Bruce too.

All in all, you guys have given me great service and really appreciate all that you guys have done. I have been restoring cars for a long time now and deal with a huge number of companies, as I have over 22 American classic cars and need parts all the time, and the experience with Engine factory has been nothing short of “outstanding”. Extremely professional, and great attention to service and detail.

Thank you.

I have been sharing my experience with a number of Car enthusiasts here and they all join me in saying you guys are great. It is the huge hassle and expense of getting these engines into India that deters most of us. I am being brave.

Ajit.

7 years ago me and a couple of other friends bought our engines from them. My engine in particular was a 347 stroker with 425 hp that went into an FFR Roadster MK3. Car weighed barely 2,300 lbs.! It had Edelbrock carb but ran smooth like it had an EFI setup. Today the engine starts up just like I did the first time… I’m going to do a GT40 replica project soon and looks like someone’s phone will be ringing again soon..

Hi Matt,

Just a quick message to say how thrilled I am with my 383 Chevy Stroker engine. Although it has been in the car for over 3 years, I went down to Le Mans this weekend for the Classic and it was faultless. I had a chance to do a few laps of the circuit whilst there and am so impressed by the way it performed, the power and the noise down the pit straight were incredible. Many thanks for building me such an impressive engine.

I’ve included a picture of the engine.

Regards,

Bruce thanks for the 408 Stroker you made for me. Your team exceeded my expectations. The engine arrived on time, was easy to install, and started right up. It ran and sounded great! I can’t wait to drive my Cobra in a few weeks. It is a great choice for Lone Star’s 7 day build!

Thanks again.

I do not have any questions., but would like to tell you how much I like your web sites, They are so informational and so easy to navigate. I will tell you truth when I was looking for my engine I kept coming back to your web site for the info I needed, when looking at other sites that didn’t offer much help. I soon realized that your company was the one I wanted to do business with. The videos made me more comfortable about handing my hard earn money over to people I didn’t know. I felt that all of you were very honest hard working people and would do what you said. I’m sorry to say that I’ve been taken by other business. So whoever designed your web site is one genius.

Thanks to Bruce and Tim for building an awesome small block for my 69’ El Camino.

Just what it needed to finish it off. Looks great and performs even better.

Great job guys. I’ll be letting everyone know where to get theirs.

Well we finally put the engine in and it is running great. I would like to thank you and your team for doing such a great job on my sons and my 68 Camaro. The engine was far past both of our expectations. You and your team truly lived up to your reputation and I would highly recommend you to everyone. We took it to our first show in New Smyrna and it was a head turner.

Thanks again for doing such a great job and we will enjoy it for many years to come.

Best,

Ken Garguilo

Bruce,

My son-in-law and I installed the engine and drive train last evening.

My son-in-law is rebuilding a Mustang and was going to rebuild the engine himself. Once he saw the engine you built for me he is rethinking his decision and may go with a crate motor from the Engine Factory.

Great service and a beautiful engine. I have some time before I install it but my experience with Engine Factory has been stellar so far. You can tell the business is family-owned and they take a lot pf pride in their work.

Being a woman, and being far from a mechanic, I somewhat expected to be treated a bit differently, especially with the many questions I had, but that wasn’t the case at all with the Engine Factory family. They were very supportive and helpful in every way. I was beyond impressed with everything about them- from all my phones calls w/questions, fast email replies to even more questions, the email updates of the engine being built, detailed installation instructions, build time, delivery time…..everything. But nothing was more impressive than the engine itself. I wanted to put it in my living room for a few weeks just to stare at it! LOL Just love it! I have another classic car (Mopar) I’m thinking of getting a new engine for sometime in the future and, without a doubt, I’ll be calling the Engine Factory again. You guys are simply Top Notch. Thank you again for all that you do and all that you’ve done. Keep up the outstanding work!

Subject: 1968 Camaro, Satisfied Customer

The 434 small block you built for me is a work of art. Only taken the car to one car show and the people came out of the woodwork to see this car and engine. Had people come and tell me this is the best car and engine they have ever seen. My first ride was without the windshield with my neighbor in the winter time. I didn’t get into the throttle to much and scared the hell out of my neighbor. We looked like dumb and dumber when we got home. The motor has incredible power and can break the tires at will. Thanks Matt for answering all of my questions on the build. Please share the pictures with everybody.

Thanks again,
David Sullenberger

My 383 stocker was delivered to me on time and 100% as ordered in 2009, and 26000 miles later it still runs strong and my 49 Thames can lift the front wheels 2 feet in the air at will. Good people, good engine, good value.
