Client’s Reviews

They rebuilt triple 575sci to 690+ hp in a 50 Hustler for me 3 years ago and reliability is perfect. Ben is a great engine builder. Excellent and honest shop.

Kerry, Pennsylvania 50 Huslte

Very quality job. I’ll be having them take care of all my boating needs. Very impressed!

Clint, Michigan 28 Eliminator

Ben did a great job on my boat! He went above and beyond with cleaning everything up, painting exhaust, catching worn out parts that would cause headache down the road! He even spent countless hours on the phone helping and teaching me about my motors before Key West and tricks to solve the problems I could run into! Thanks again!

Justin, Michigan 38 Powerquest

Ben is very professional, thorough, and courteous. He has cared for my boat for 10 plus years resulting in total satisfaction. He reminds me of items to attend to prior to having them fail during our limited boating season. That is a real plus! I feel confident to recommend Ben to everyone I encounter. Thanks for your efforts!

Dave, Michigan 27 Powerquest

Ben has taken care of our high performance boats for as long as I can remember. He takes the time to ensure everything is done accurately and will not compromise on quality. I recommend Precision Power Offshore over any other high performance marine shop.

You are an honest, respectable individual who has a genuine concern about your engines and your customers. I personally enjoy doing business with Chief Engines, and I truly appreciate you taking care of my boats. “In a Sea of Darkness There is One Light That Shines!”

As I ventured into the world of high performance boats, I count myself as most fortunate that I listened to the recommendations of friends and met with you. Not only did Chief produce engines of exceptional quality for my “Thunder,” the advice and recommendations from you personally were invaluable. Chief Engines continues to service my boat with the same professionalism and commitment to quality and satisfaction that they had when I purchased my engines.

Mark & Sheila, Florida 37 Active Thunder

Ever since I re-powered my boat with two 430 HP Chief Engines I have not missed a weekend of boating even though these engines are 8000 miles away from Florida. Thanks Tom for your great support.

I have been dealing with Chief Engines for more than several months nowand I am extremely happy with the professional advice and the very goodservice. If I have any questions, all I have to do is to pick up the telephonefor friendly and very helpful advice. All delivery dates are very good. Youhave just supplied me with a pair of 8.2 LT 620 HP engines for my Formula311 SR1 and also supplied a pair of 250 Holley superchargers with dual 750 Holleys on each engine. I would recommend Chief Engines to anybody who wishes to be supplied with high performance engines or any high performance parts. Without a doubt I shall certainly be dealing with Chief Engines in the future.

Mark, Guernsey, Channel Islands Formula 311

Of all the engine builders I have dealt with, Chief Engines is the best. They understand my needs and when I need them, they are there for me. Customer satisfaction is what it is all about. After a good engine, service is what counts. For Chief Engines there is never a no; they will go with you all the way until you are satisfied. Honesty, hard-working, knowledge and satisfaction is all I can say from Chief Engines. Quality, performance, and technical support has been my experience with Chief.

Joey, Puerto Rico 47 Apache

When I found Chief Engines, boating changed! Now I go with confidence. I have re-powered my second boat with 550 HP 540 CI Chiefs and the experience continues. The motors and accessories are beautifully painted, idle like car engines, and run flawless. My boat sees 150-plus hours a year and goes on numerous Poker Runs, so reliability is not an option but a must. Tommy is second-to-none when it comes to his knowledge and he truly cares about his product, not just the day it’s delivered but for well into the future. I would highly recommend his work to anyone looking for a professional, trustworthy engine builder. Chief Engines is definitely World Class. “It is rare in today’s world…to meet someone who is trustworthy and truly loves what they do, not only concerned with the bottom line. Tommy, you fill that description and more”.

Carl & Tammy, Florida 38 Fountain

My experience with Chief Engines has been an outstanding and memorable experience. Tommy’s customer service, honesty and knowledge of dependable high performance is one of the best in the industry. Chief Engines has earned 100% of my future business.

Rusty, Florida 38 Nor-Tech

It is a long time that our company has commercial agreements with Chief Engines. We are very satisfied most of all with Tom’s kindness and also with his technical competence in racing marine engines. Secondly, we are pleased with your usual punctuality in expedition and in answering our requests about high performance marine engines.

Franco, Italy (Marine Services)

We have been dealing with Chief Engines for 3 years. They have always been very helpful in giving us advice and getting to our needs in a timely manner.

James, Florida

“Owning a race boat in Tortola, the British Virgin Islands since 1985, I can honestly say that Chief Engines Inc. really impressed me with their precision in building motors, of analyzing the work before releasing it, being honest, and quick in getting out replacement parts if necessary. Thank you for all your help, Tommy.”

Christian, British Virgin Islands

We currently have a set of Chief 940 HP engines in our 36’ Spectre Powerboat. At this time we have approximately 120 hours on each motor without failure. With these engines we have the speed and performance that Ed thrives for (138 mph) and yet as his wife, I drive and handle the boat without fear or hesitation. Along with the performance end, the support we have received from Chief Engines is beyond anything we expected. We would recommend Chief Engines without any reservations. Thanks Guys!!!!

Ed & Lou, Kentucky 36 Spectre

Straightforward, Good Pricing, Excellent Quality, Willing to Discuss Any Questions. That is Chief Engines.

Dennis, Antigua 33 PowerPlay

Chief is a first-class operation in every respect. They delivered more than promised, on schedule, and at a fair price. Most important, they’re nice people. I highly recommend Chief Engines.

Tim, Michigan 38 Cigarette

I am the owner of a 46’ Skater with a pair of Chief 1100 HP’s for two years, and have participated in many Poker Runs trouble-free.

Glenn, Florida 46 Skater

I’ve had 3 years of trouble-free boating from my custom-built Chief Engine. Tom’s personal attention to my needs and his experience is why I choose Chief Engines and I’m glad I did!

Ron, Virginia 28 Talon

Looking for reliable horsepower? Go to the Chief at Chief Engines. I have two 588 CI 1000 HP engines. They’re still going – going – going. Happy Customer.

Ron, Ohio 38 Carrera

I have depended on Chief Engines’ expertise to keep the two 1000 HP engines in my 36’ Skater running smoothly and dependably at 140 mph.

Scott, North Carolina 36 Skater

Chief Engines has outstanding knowledge and expertise in all their high performance parts and products they sell. That is why my company highly recommends and chooses Chief Engines.

Tim, Maine (Marine Services)

Whether on a competitive Poker Run, full-throttled and trimmed out on the way to the Bahamas, or idling for hours along the Intracoastal Waterway, Chief Engines have always been super strong and wonderfully reliable. Chief Engines always starts, always runs, and always wins!

Larry, Florida 36 Fountai

If you want to go boating, then get Chief’s. Peace of mind is what I got. My Chief blower motors idled as smooth as a car engine, made the horsepower that I was promised, and the only maintenance was to change the spark plugs at 250 hours. There is no upgrade from a Chief Engine.
