I have plenty of experience with HP-M and I wish I would have never taken my car there. They are outstanding in the beginning when trying to earn your business, Talk a good talk, lots of promises. After I dropped almost 16K on my build I absolutely regret ever have had them touch my 45th. Had to leave my car there after I drove from Corpus because of all the unfinished “ooops I forgot” things they didn’t do. Had to get a hotel for the night because I got a ride from a buddy thinking I would be bringing home the best car I’ve personally owned, but didn’t. Owner actually got me a rental for the ride home. Got plenty of BS text messages from owner to include lots of pictures of the aftermath. I would gladly post all this information for any non-believers. Barely 1K miles later my car sits with a possibly broken lifter, knocking all over the place. Yes I paid for a new set of LS7 lifters, well at least that’s what the receipt says. Now no answer from anyone from HP-M.
I bought an LSX from them and a Callies rotating assembly. I got sold on a 427 Callies Assembly, then got a call from the owner “Jay” that Callies 427 assemblies are way bacl ordered, so he sold me on a 421 assembly. Then a month after they received the assembly they post a video on their Facebook page of my car that states “Urbano’s 418 Stroker”, I was like WTF 418? Uhm no I paid for a 421 so I called and Jay stated that “It’s what we said it is”, so no actual answer verifying a 421. I asked for the Callies receipt alongside machining receipt, he would not and has not given it to me – nothing to prove I have a 421 which is what I paid for. 6 months later I’m still asking and now I get no answer.
And that’s only some of the problems, don’t even get me started with my test 1983 Chevrolet Silverado spark plug wires they left on. I asked his mechanic what happened to the MSD wires I paid for, he was like “Sir those are MSD wires”, Uh no they’re not. He called Jay to verify and sure enough, “Oooops yeah they’re not”, wow didn’t even know what to say. My New catch can, not even put on. They were like “Oh we saw one in the shop floor and didn’t know whose it was” , when I went back the 2nd time for my car it was on the floor board on the back seat – WTH? Yeah, just some, plenty of pictures of it.
Oh and a week after, my car stalls under the freeway with a huge puddle under the car. Pop the hood open, Fuel line disconnected from the fuel rail. The retaining clip that goes inside the fuel line wasn’t even there, It was being held on by a little compression. I took pictures and sent them to Jay at around 5am, said maybe they forgot to put the clip back in the fuel line. So no I’m paying a machine shop to check the bore to verify exactly what I bought.
