Car Engine Fabrication

I think most will agree that cars can be works of art. Especially when it comes to paint, from the wildest and craziest paint schemes to the simple clean paint jobs when someone puts a custom touch on a vehicle I think many would say that is art. But what about what you do not see? What about whats "under the hood", the engine.

To me there are many fabricators in the performance car world that are creating amazing pieces of creative art work. From finding new ways to mount different parts or alter existing parts all the way to creating a fully custom engine dress. To me, it takes insane creativity to realize, "i can make that work!".

I have done my fair share of beating, banging, and welding of parts to make stuff work but no where near the level of the man I want to talk about today, Tom Nelson. He is the owner and operator of Nelson Supercars Inc. and Nelson Racing Engines  Since he was 18 he has been swapping engines and full-filling his sickening passion for speed. From crude fabrication to some of the most elegant clean and symmetrical engine bays you could ever see. He combines his world class knowledge of cars and engine science with his creative mind to develop some of the performance car industries most impressive developments.

See what I mean:

 Its amazing what a man with an imagination and a CNC machine can do
Here is David F., the editor and chief of Hot Rod magazine car that was built by Nelson Racing.
