Does anybody know anything about the quality of the motors he puts out? Reputable? Reliable? Thanks

I would trust Pete Flemming with my life. The guy has been through it all!
He's worked with a ton of big names in the Drag Boat space with men like Rick Jackson Racing back when the crew set the 1/4 mile world record in
Top Alcohol Flat at 172 Mph. Was very close to the Capaldi's.
Was hired on back when I obtained my Top Fuel Hydro License in the late 90's.

The list goes on and on with Big Pete! He's as knowledgeable and dedicated as they get.

JMHO.

Thank you sir. I appreciate the response. He's building my dads motor right now, his price was quite a bit higher than other guys. I want to make sure he's getting his money's worth and not getting screwed.

Pretty sure it's manny, moe and jack.


You get what you pay for and I have yet be disappointed by Big Pete!

Thanks for the lesson. Would be nice to post something, or ask a question on this website/forum with without the backlash of deutchbag comments and sarcasm, as if I'm new here and don't know anything. I guess if I didn't ask brummett, pfaff, or whomever other mainstream name in the industry, then the rest are all manny, moe, and jack...right?!! There are a lot of REALLY good motor builders out there, and I could name them, but if it didn't start with a "Tea" and end with a "gue" you prob wouldn't know them. Thanks for the response. And I'm sorry, but you don't always get what you pay for.
