It seems that the Pontiac dude has a good reputation - does everyone agree? His motors seem to be priced reasonably - any first hand experence with his stuff?
Thanks. Mark. 65 LeM conv

Never built anything for me, but I've bought thousands of dollars of parts from him and also was under his tutelage with my nitrous combination. He's a straight shooter that stands behind his work and is a wealth of knowledge.

Fair prices and great knowledge.


He lives the sport - knows first hand from old school "getter done motors" to high tech NOS systems and Pro Chargers. He's well rounded... plus is a nice guy. I put him in the Top 3 Engine builders/etc.

He's built a couple of motors for me and I've been very happy.
In fact I'm going to take my current motor to him for a refresh and a few small changes very soon.

If I was closer, he would be putting my next 455 together.

He is Stroking my 400 as we speak, will let you know in a month or so. I am planning to visit him when he is ready to start up/break in the motor before shipping it up to me.


I think he is shooting to have it ready for me by the first snow :( LOL

Here is a question: what do you do if you have a brand new motor in your ride and you cant drive it because of winter weather:
1. "visit" the garage daily and have some tea with it?
2. repeatedly wax and polish the valve covers?
3. have it shipped down south and move there?

P Dude built my 455, its a daily driver and I drive it year round in the Northeast weather.
:popcorn:
Im happy with it and it still pulls like a beast!

I had planned years ago to go with Butler when I was ready to build, but Kens prices were more affordable and he reputation is also great.

Ken is a super guy to deal with. He has done work for me and Billy Franklin several times. You won't be dissapointed with him.

You can't do better than a P-Dude motor. He's the best.

My dealings with him were a positive experience and I truly see him as "good people" and an asset to the Pontiac community. JMHO.Ron

I have one "complaint": he is working on numerous other projects and did not put them aside to build my engine. I had to wait in line just like anyone else LOL

What I hear it's worth the wait

Dude sent me good parts, at good prices.....and looked after me by using the best value shipping he could....since I'm in Australia. I'll buy off him again.

Common' he must have SOME bad habits?

Maybe he uses the wrong after shave?

His soda machine ripped me off. Danee fixed it tho...

I see now...... so that is how he makes his money........ build engines at a reasonable price, BUT when you go there to see him, unsuspectingly, his soda machine rips you off.
This explains a lot of things

Nothing but good things to say about Ken and Danee. Like everything though good work cannot be hurried.
