“Like many classic car owners I have owned my mustang since I first started driving. I had always wanted to have an engine built for the car but thought it would be something that never happened until I was retired and had more money. One day on my way home from work I drove past Andrew’s shop and decided to stop in and dream a little. After talking with Andrew for a few minutes he quickly proposed an option for a build that would be feasible for me. the beginning goal was a 302 SBF motor making roughly 350hp. Andrew and I began talking about the parts for the build and that’s where the initial goal was altered. Andrew seemed just as excited as I was about the motor and I have an inability to choose the cheapest parts available which resulted in the build well exceeding the original power numbers. Andrew would always present the full line of options available, and I would usually choose one of the best or top end options. We would both smirk and chuckle, knowing it was turning into a monster! The 350hp/302 build turned into a 500hp/347ci build that still runs amazing after 8 years and has had ZERO problems. Needless to say I was/am thoroughly impressed and pleased with Andrews expertise. He offers a truly custom build that he treats as if it was going in his own car. There is not another builder/mechanic that I trust or will go to.”

“I have been using Gibson Performance for all my automotive needs for several years. On more than one occasion Andy has discovered something that could cause serious problems without attention, in the near future. He’s always called, explained the situation and left the decision to us. In the long run this has saved us countless dollars. As well, all of his work has been of the highest quality, from tune up work to suspension issues, to clutch problems, Andy has taken the time to research and procure the best parts at the best price. His labor rates are a terrific value and the time spent on repairs is always less than I expected. My wife and I could not be more satisfied and Andy comes with our highest recommendation.”

“I brought what I thought was a ready to run 460 to Gibson Performance after nearly a year of tinkering. It turned out my engine was a ticking time bomb just waiting to explode and my patience had run out; I was ready to give up and dump the whole project. Andrew was able to calm me down and help me through the tough parts. Now I have 500hp fire breathing Bronco that will make any motor guy smile – it’s now my favorite toy! Andrew is so knowledgeable and yet can make me (not a gear head) understand what is wrong and what the fix is. Gibson Performance will always get my business. “Thank the Lord for the Big Block Ford” and Gibson Performance Engines!!”

“My name is Lee and I had the privilege of meeting Andrew at just the right time before I paid another company too much of my hard earned money for an engine that was not what I wanted, nor what I wanted to pay. So Andrew took the time to talk to me about what my truck was, tire size, gear size, and what I did with my truck. And he asked me a question that none of the other shops asked, “WHAT DO I WANT ?” When he asked me that It made me feel like he actually cared, and wasn’t just trying to get me out the door. I talked to several shops and every shop did the same thing, they offered me 1 option and said “here this is what you want-need, this is the price yes or no?” But Andrew didn’t do that he took the time to show me about 4 different build options, and I got to choose what I wanted. So I ended up picking a few things I liked about each option to make my own 5th option. At this point I was still undecided whether I was going to give my business to Andrew or not but then When talking about the build with Andrew about my options and how much power I could get for my money he said something to me that put away all doubts that I had about him and his abilities. He said and I quote “I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO SACRIFICE QUALITY TO SAVE TIME, AND I WILL KEEP TRACK OF EVERY ONE OF YOUR HARD EARNED PENNIES.” Whenever he said that I knew he was the engine builder for me. He stayed in touch with me throughout the entire build to keep me in the loop, also I liked the fact that he shook my hand with respect and always looked me in the eyes while talking to me. Now my new 388 stroker is built and he did the cam break in already and it sounds great, soon I hope to have it in my truck and start enjoying it.”
I RECOMMEND GIBSON PERFORMANCE ALL THE WAY!!!
