What customers say
Track builds, vintage and modern projects, and engineering partnerships, in their own words.
GPE helped prep my track attack car after another shop failed to meet expectations. I could not be happier with how it turned out!
WOW! I wanted to try a set of GPE control arms after coming across their Cutlass on Instagram. I cannot believe how well it handles now! If you want turn your classic into a corner carver, these are the parts to use!!!
Pat and the team at GPE helped my business design a front suspension that we wanted to bring to market. The communication, quality, and engineering were unmatched! We look forward to working together on another project.
After using parts from many other pro touring suspension brands, I didn’t think I could be surprised by the performance and quality, but I was wrong! In an industry that has dozens of brands making parts for these old cars, Gorman Performance Engineering stands out from the rest. The engineering in the products truly is best in class, and their team is second to none!
