LS & LT Performance · Lebanon, TN
The builds ↓
Every car that comes through the bay — documented start to finish, bare metal to burnouts.
This is Austin's own — a custom turbo 5.3L LS-swapped Nissan 300ZX he built himself and drag races at LS Fest and Nashville Superspeedway. Everything the shop preaches gets proven on this car first.
If a combo can survive Austin flogging it down the strip, it's earned its place in your build.

An '85 Buick LeSabre built for one thing — burnout competition. Single-turbo 5.3L LS on upgraded internals, a custom-placed fuel cell, and the supporting plumbing to feed it, with radiator and tire sprayers to keep the smoke coming and temps down under the abuse.
Big body, big smoke — with hardware to back it: 2nd in the Bro Class at the 2026 LS Fest East Burnout Wars.

This G8 GT belongs to Austin's wife, Sherena — proof the shop builds more than turbo LS drag cars. A Stage 2 cam with the supporting mods to back it, upgraded suspension, and a set of drag wheels and tires.

Started as a clean Monte Carlo, going out as a twin-turbo LS — engine assembled in-house, custom stainless hot- and cold-side plumbing, a front-mount intercooler, and wiring sorted so it runs like the factory never could.
Every weld, bracket, and bend is ours. Nothing on this car got farmed out or phoned in.
