To recognize and memorialize the individuals that played a significant role in the development of internal combustion engines for competition. From the origins of hot rodding to all forms of motorized competition, the Engine Builder Hall of Fame enshrines those who innovated, achieved and advanced the internal combustion engine in competition.
To best accomplish this, we chose to separate evaluation into the four eras below: Pre WW-II, Post WW-II, 60's-70's, and 80's-90's. Know that everyone involved in the Engine Builder Hall of Fame welcomes comments and discussion about who should be enshrined. Please keep in mind that our primary criteria are how much the "Art of Engine Building" was enhanced by their involvement and how many people they mentored & inspired.
We want to thank our sponsors, Edelbrock Performance, ICON Forged Pistons, Total Seal Piston Rings, and COMP Cams for helping make this possible.
