Hank's Garage at Kent Performance

Looking for a technician you can trust? Look no further!

So here it goes, I am in business for the first time. I have almost 15 yrs. exp. in the automotive industry and have accomplished alot in a short period of time. I'm an ASE master technician and a World Class Technician by General Motors, I also am a Gold Level technician by Chrysler. I have vast experience in electrical, fuel, ignition, transmission, and even diesel.  I will be located at the Kent Performance Auto Center were I help on weekends as a service consultant. My plan is to put my experiences with modern computer control systems, engines, and transmissions and to retrofit into older or specialty vehicles.  This will give your older muscle car, offroader, or hotrod modern reliability and fuel economy. Imagine the possibilities!

With my experience of new computer systems I also can perform upgrades to modern vehicles and still keep it emission legal.  Bigger camshafts, higher flow heads and intake manifold, headers and exhaust, stroker engines, even supercharging of turbocharging.

I also have alot of diesel experience, that could help increase your towing ability or turn your truck into an all out streetable powerhouse. Bigger exhaust systems or exhaust brakes, programmers, intercoolers, turbo upgrades, and performance packages like banks, bullydog, or others.



Here are just a few of the conversions that could be done:

• Replace worn out engines with updated engines that have the potential for more power and better fuel economy.

• LS engine swap in Chevelle, Nova, El Camino, Impala, Corvette, truck, hotrod, or off road vehicle. Any place a small of big block Chevy could be. Modern direct ignition, fuel injection, cylinder deactivation, variable cam timing, 3 4 now 6 speed electronic transmission, serpentine belt system. Retrofit a newer engine into your vehicle. 

• Gen 3 Hemi, the modern hemi found in the new chargers, challenger, and trucks, etc. Could be located in a Dart, Duster, Charger, GTX, Road Runner or whatever has a small or big block Mopar. Modern dual spark plug ignition, fuel injection, cylinder deactivation, 3 4 or 5 speed electronic transmission, serpentine belt system.

Own a speciality vehicle like Corvette, Viper, Hummer, V-series cadillac, or SRT Chrysler, etc. I have been factory trained on all of these vehicles and have the experience to properly service and repair these vehicles. I can keep them running like new or modify them to run or look like they have never before. 

Have you ever checked out Factory Five Racing, they build replica kit cars based on newer vehicles, AC cobra roadsters and coupes, they also have hotrod roadsters and coupes, even a super car based on Corvette. This is has always been a project I would like to be involved in.
