Met Nick in 2001. His son and mine played soccer in the yard while I talked w/Nick. Bought many things from him over the yrs. After my son died in 2011 Nick always asked how my wife and I were doing. He was a very caring and genuine person. I will miss him.
RIP Nick you will be missed by many.


Ok

Never met him but I bought a set of T&D rockers for my 440-1 heads from him and we talked on the phone twice. One of the few guys that I never heard a bad word said about and that's tough in the business he was in. Nick, his Family, and Friends are in my thoughts and Prayers.

To me Nick was everything that was RIGHT in this sport. Nick was a no BS engine guy and racer that would always help you with parts or service that would only make you go faster.
I have lost a friend that I have learned so much from for the past 30 plus years I have known him.

We will all miss your wheel standing Plymouth at Norwalk this year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mnn4gQysY0E

Spoke with Nick a couple months back. Great guy to deal with and very knowledgeable. My prayers to his family during this very difficult time.
RIP Nick

It's hard to believe, I met Nick 22 years ago. He built me a 440 for my dart when I was pretty young. I'll never forget my Dad calling Nick and saying,"This engine isn't what we thought it would be." Nick was nervous and willing to help out in any way possible. My Dad then followed up with "No, that's not the problem. We're all afraid to drive it!" Since then Nick has built me two additional engines. We recently moved about 5 minutes from CompuFlow. I drove the Dart down just to show Nick it was finally running and street worthy. Still working the bugs out of the car, I was having cooling issues. He insisted he followed me to my house to make sure that I got home alright. Nick was my biggest cheerleader when it came to the car. He will be greatly missed by all. At the Chrylser Classic, he always had his customer appreciation meal. I don't think he knew how much we appreciated him. He was always willing to help out in any way possible. You will be missed Nick. Rest in Piece angel

Nick.

Bring people the backwind in your passing.
You will be missed.
He had done some minor port and valve work on an early motor years back and was very helpful with answering all my concerns.
I know he worked closely with the JDay team in Ohio, another concerned family of Mopar racers.
Aside from that, he and his Son were very applied.

Rest your physical self, but your soul shall travel still.

RIP Nick. My dealings were limited, but I had planned more in the future. The Mopar community lost a good one.
