About Nelson Racing Engines
The name NELSON RACING ENGINES has become synonmous with extreme horspower applications.
When professional car builders and car owners are looking to "push the envelope" of power and drivability, they call on NRE.
Whether looking for 2,000hp+ race application, or a 1,500hp street application, NRE has been building turn-key solutions for super motors for over 11 years.
Put simply - we are gear-heads. We love high-horsepower performance and always have. It began with the question: "What if...?" and turned into a quest to squeeze every inch of power using innovative thinking combined with proven theory.
Nelson Racing Engines opened their doors in 1995. 11 years later, owner Tom Nelson creates combinations with the passion he had when building hot rods as a teen for his friends. "That's what keeps us at our best. There is so much to learn. I'm always a student," says Tom. "I eat, sleep, and breathe my profession and want to provide my customers with the best that I can offer. There is nothing more satisfying than getting to know my customer and setting out to achieve his (or her!) goals. It's what gets me up in the morning."

NRE 1750hp
Posted Thursday 08-13-2009This is the craziest truck we've had in the shop to date.
The owner Bill Burgeois is exactly the kind of customer we love here at Nelson Racing Engines - one serious Nutbag!
This is a Chevy Avalanche powered by one of our 1750hp 427 SBC Twin Turbo Hot Rod Series engines - made of all aluminum. It features our new 16-injector billet intake manifold with built in fuel regulation and dual fuel octane on demand. It also features some of our new 4-into-1 billet collectors and billet turbo transitions with wastegate attachments. This beast utilizes a 5-stage drysump system which we have converted one of the stages to a transmission pump. The truck uses a 5-speed sequential gearbox where we completely elminated the clutch and replaced with a torque converter - a sequential stick with no clutch!!! We also had the Electromotive Engine Management System tie into the dual onboard dash assemblies - one for the front passengers and one for the rear passengers.
This thing will be an absolute monster in the desert, but we had fun just cruising the streets of Chatsworth! WTF!
