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."

Twin Turbo Sand Rail Engine

Posted Friday 08-21-2009

This is an all aluminum, 427 Twin Turbo Small Block Chevy, NRE Hot Rod Series Engine.  It features our 16-injector billet intake manifold that has all the injectors, sensors, and throttle linkage placed on the inside of the intake - creating a  really slick look.


The twin regulators and fuel distribution center are built into the intake itself and are internally boost referenced.  There is no plumbing needed other than hooking up feeds and returns. The motor also features our Billet NRE valve covers and our Billet 4-into-1 header collectors. Also featured are our new Billet Turbo transistions, which transistion the 3-inch round 90-degree into a t4 flange, and have a wastegate attachment built-in (meaining no welds).  This part makes the 90-degree turn in 3.5 inches, including the turbo flange thickness, which allows much more room for packaging then was traditionally available with stainless bends. Another neat thing about this engine is we designed a dry sump oil system that not only controls oil to the engine, but also to the transmission converter.


Another really cool feature is our new NRE Intake Plenum is 180-degrees reversible  - the throttle body can face forward or reverse, making the package more versatile regardless of the application.  I hope you enjoy the Video. - Tom
