LS ENGINE Builds Tampa

Have Your LS Engine Built By An ASE Certified Master Technician

At Full Tilt Automotive and Performance, we can build you a custom LS Engine with all of the power and speed you want! Whether you want a 4.8, 5.3, 5.7, 6.0 or a 6.2 we’re the team to build it well, build it fast, and build it right. We’ve done small LS Engine Builds for pickup trucks and daily drivers, and we’ve also done a lot of very big LS Engine Builds with superchargers and nitrous for an 8 second track experience. We’ve even had a few unconventional LS Engine Builds that range from old restomod trucks to an RX-7. And on a daily basis, we’re working on the standard LS Engine Builds for 442s, Camaros, Caprices, Corvette and Novas. So whatever build you have in mind – we can probably make it work. At Full Tilt Automotive and Performance, we always charge $120 per hour for LS Engine Builds – we never base our pricing, or charge a premium based on the value of your vehicle. We pride ourselves on being honest and up front about how long you can expect to wait for your car, and how much it will take to get everything completed.

We have the ability to complete any LS Engine Build you’re looking for at Full Tilt Automotive and Performance. We’re certain of that because each of our technicians has owned at least 3 LS Engine powered vehicles, and they still have a few of those rides to this day. Each of our technicians cares about building an engine that will keep your car running, we’ll never sell you a bunch of parts and upgrades that your LS Engine doesn’t need. When it comes to this platform we’ve seen it all, we’ve been through it all, and we’ve done it. So put our experience to work for you.

Full Tilt Automotive and Performance is owned and operated by a UTI Graduate (Universal Technical Institute) who also took the time to earn each of the available ASE Certification back in 2008. We say that cars are our passion because each of our service technicians owns at least 4 cars and we love them like our children. If your car is an important part of your life, you should call Full Tilt Automotive and Performance today.
