I just want to say thank you! These guys did not just work on my vehicle, they worked with me. As a manager of a shop that has a great reputation both locally and on google, I could not be more pleased with my experience at Big 3. The staff was educated and informative on every situation. The communication was A+++. I knew what was happening and when it was happening. Everyone I spoke with was personable and great to deal with! My repair was probably the most undesirable thing for them to do, yet I was treated like it was a million dollar build. This is how I conduct my business and it was extremely pleasing to be treated the same way. For great craftsmanship, workmanship and customer service you dont need to look anywhere else. To all the Big 3 guys. Thank you again!

Where do I begin with the hack job this shop did on my dream build?Off their reviews, I trusted them to do a big block and 4L80E trans install on my 1970 Chevelle.What I received was a build that could have been done better at a fraction of their labor rate. So much hype for so little quality.I received my car back with these issues:The biggest issue is it would overheat and had excessive cooling system pressure that would puke coolant any time it reached operating temperature. My cooling fans would never come on. I started the car over and over and let it heat up while seeing them never come on. They blamed the builder and I spent $2200 having the motor pulled and torn down to show the heads held pressure and the head gaskets that Big3 swore were blown were actually perfect. The car needed a coolant bypass that Rick said was commonly needed. They also had the cooling fans switch in the coolest area of the cooling system which is why they never came on.They lied and said they came on every time they started the car even cold off the car trailer??? They wouldn't trigger on a cold car.I had an appointment to drop my car off that was pushed back a few months then I finally did drop it off and it sat in their mud lot out back. They literally have millions of dollars of people's cars sitting in their muddy back lot outside in the elements that they can;t get to. This is where my window issue happened.My back window "collapsed" all of a sudden and was replaced, but all the glass was left all over the interior.I supplied parts that disappeared and was never compensated for and sent home with parts that didn't belong to me. My TPS sensor and motor mounts were supplied but I was charged for others and the ones i paid for were never sent back. I was sent home with a transmission mount that wasn't mine even though I said it was someone else's. Looks expensive.My transmission wouldn't shift at WOT because the rev limiter was set before the shift point. Ignition box was mounted behind the battery facing the fender so battery and box have to be removed to adjust it.I paid $400 dyno time but they admitted they never really never set up anything on the dyno. They did burn through my brake lines and charged me over $1000 in labor and new brake lines.They used header bolts that had about 3/4 of a turn of catch and had to be replaced. $960 was charged to bolt on headers.I paid labor and cost of new spark plugs on a new build that hadn't been fired.My car wouldn't shift into park and hold the car and also wouldn't show what gear it was in.I was charged 2 hours labor to level my car when I can set it at any level in 20 minutes of adjustments.

Everyone I talked to was phenomenal. Chuck actually did the Dyno runs on my car, and he was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Very glad I chose these guys and I highly recommend them.

These guys are great. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and all around a pleasure to work with. I didnt have the 'standard type' vehicle they are used to working with, but none-the-less, they took care of some driveability issues with my LS swapped Jeep, and did a superb job. I hope to be back with some more builds in the future, and would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to tune a GM, Ford, or Mopar.

I brought my old work truck to be tuned on the dyno. They found a few things wrong and runs much better now. The 350 Chevy runs great now. They seem to do a lot of Corvette work.

Guys there retuned the EFI on my 65 Mustang after a bad shop (Pro Car Associates) couldn't bother to give me a backup of my original work. Big3 was able to get the Stang running better than ever and they were able to answer all my questions (with tuning backups of what I paid for) Real hidden gem having such talented people nearby. Thanks Guys!

Brought our trackhawk here in a million pieces from a previous shop we were unhappy with. Big 3 had great communication throughout the entire build. When it came down to the wire things change from a moment to moment basis in custom sports cars, we begged the shop to have it done in time for our daughters prom, although we thought it was going to be an impossible goal. The owner met us at the shop SATURDAY morning to make sure we had our sports car for our daughters prom if that doesn t say above and beyond I m not sure what else does. The result is more than we could ve asked for, we re beyond thankful and will recommend big 3 at any chance we get

I brought a pcm in for a simple factory file upload. They couldn't do the job and I ended up taking my module somewhere else where I was told it was bricked. Now I'm out a PCM. I do not recommend

This shop is as good as it gets. Rick tuned my highly modified 03 Cobra and did a fantastic job. Communication leading up to the appt was great, and finished everything up quick. When I picked up the car everyone was nice enough to take a few minutes out of there extremely busy schedule to talk about my car, answer my questions, and lay out some plans going forward. I have a hard time trusting ANY performance shop with my car so it was a little bit of a leap of faith, but it was the right move. Can't reccomemd these guys enough. Thank you again so very much for taking great care of my car.

*2022 EDIT* Still the best in the business!Been working with B3R for years and had multiple cars tuned there. I cant say enough good things about them. Everyone there is super knowledgeable and helpful. Talking to a tuner can be intimidating but these guys don't talk down to you like some other shops do. Nearly everyone there is part owner of the shop so they are fully invested in keeping their customers happy. Rick, Chuck, Bob, Dustin, and the whole crew are just all around good guys who know what they are doing.

Great shop to work with, had a remote tune done on my lq9 running terminator x. Helped figure out and fix a MAP issue and is running very well now. Very nice to work with and gave tons of great advise for future improvements to optimize torque curve on my setup.

Brought my f body to them for full exhaust install and tune since I installed a cam. The car runs amazing and made great power. Super happy with their tune, and Dustin was super helpful. I would definitely recommend them.

Offer the best deals on Holley products. Ordered the Terminator X for my turbo LS Trans Am. Great customer support, fast shipping and they gave me some deals on bonus goodies. Make sure to ask about the Holley boost controller and flex fuel setup.

It's been a few months since my Whipple Supercharger install on my Camaro SS. Beast is still running like a champ. Before and after dyno was amazing. I was sent photos of the install which I greatly appreciate. Thank you Big 3 racing for an outstanding job. Looking forward to future business.

Lasted 10 laps. Punched hole thru pan. Told me they couldn't do a 5th gear dyno pull because the speed was too high? :) Set a stock 7000 limit red line on a stock bottom end expected it to hold. Nevrr got receipt for smaller injection i was charged. Never got bill of breakdown. And of course will blame my builder. Y was I warned afterwards. Apparently only big three can tune holley. Jokes

I told them when I dropped it off I need the car done in 2 weeks they sed it would not be a problem. The car would not been done in 4 weeks. Very disappointed!!!! Not cool at all.

All in all i was happy with the work done at big 3. I just got super frustrated when I couldn t fill the nitros tank and I always figured if worse came to worse I could fill it there. I did not know it was not customary for the shop to refill the bottle. My apologies for the earlier comment. You were right Summit fills bottles and not as far as I thought.
