PDQ Powered is a Kansas-based precision engine shop built for one purpose: winning in high-performance go kart and mini bike racing. Serving racers across Kansas, the Midwest, and nationwide through shipping, I deliver competitive, rule-compliant, dyno-proven engines designed to perform under real race conditions.

I specialize in high-performance clone and small-block racing engines, where every build is executed with exacting precision. From bearing clearances and compression ratios to cam timing and valve train geometry, nothing is overlooked. True performance doesn’t come from a single part — it comes from a fully optimized combination working together at speed.

Every engine goes through dyno testing under load before it ever leaves the shop. This ensures verified horsepower and torque, dialed-in carburetion, optimized ignition timing, and most importantly, reliability. The goal isn’t just peak numbers — it’s consistent, repeatable performance you can count on when it matters.

I work directly with racers to match each engine package to class rules and performance goals — 100% legal, no shortcuts. In addition to engine building, I assist with kart setup, chassis scaling, and tire strategy to help drivers stay competitive and run up front.

PDQ Powered is built on precision, integrity, and results. No matter where you race, I can get a winning engine to your door.
