Sonny Leonard is a name synonymous with awesome power, and it's a pleasure to have the man himself give a guided tour of his facilities. Nice tour...thanks!

Sonny sonny sonny . There are very few MEN! in this world as kind and helpful as sonny . I remember the 90s buying parts to build engines he was right there whenever you needed his expertise..

A legendary man and his humble shop, the home of the super sized "Mountain Motor" and a place where art and science have converged for decades. Congratulations on 45+ awesome years. Thank you Sonny Leonard

Been around racing since the 60’s and seems like I remember Sonny from all those years. Never met the man but very impressed with his operation and his demeanor.

He started in a small shop in Madison Hts.,Va. and tuned my Torino in 1971 and tood the smog pump off and plugged the exhaust holes rode my car to his home with his mailbox in the back seat.

20 years ago we ran a Sonny's engine in a 70 camaro. IHRA comp eliminator. It was a 565 inch n/a , it made 1000 hp with a single dominator. It was a lot of fun. Engine was flawless. Driver and crew ,not so much.

Sonny, The good old days of Drag Racing back in 1969, Raceway Park, Englishtown, New Jersey. My Home Track!

Spinning a big displacement motor to those kind of RPM doesnt happen by guess work or luck. And those HP numbers without stuffing it full of air or NOS is no joke. Wish i had a couple for my boat. Yall got my respect for sure.

SONNY'S ENGINES ARE A WORK OF ART! Prettier than a Diamond...

Thanks for tour Sonny

Wo’!! Always wondered About Yalls Shop Scenes!!#

Good stuff sonny

Another amazing American team

Dope shop

I must be old I bought a set of pistons and heads from sonny back when he was over in town in his small shop he was building Ricky Smith's ford engines and Johnny Doweys chevy prostock motors. Ricky was running 760s that was flying back then. Lee shepard was running high 750s

Mike Finnegan has one of his engines in his racing boat, with twin turbos added on.

I like how he can sit there cool as ice while spinning a 2,000hp engine that costs more than I make in a year to 8,000 rpm on the dyno.

Thanks for sharing. Always loved that icing on the cake. (Sonny's Valve covers). When walking around the pits, you could make a mental note, before they shut the hood, who had Sonny's engines and if you were a betting man, just go ahead and put your money on the cars with his engines, and you would go home with more money than what you came with, except for the motel room. Look like a blessed bunch of guys to be able to work for a boss like you.

I seen Ronnie Sox in Kinston NC race Scottie cannon back in the 90s

Impressive

Its crazy to have a engine so powerful NA that you don't need or want to run nos or forced induction.

Badass

Good people

When will you use the GMC 637 cubic engine big black Chevy or the 5 and 1/8 bore

I always wanted to see his 1005 cubic inch

He & his wife must be great employers to have so many people to build long term careers at their shop. Great to see the American dream alive & well.
