SERVICES
Bore & Hone
Over time, cylinders can wear out of round, leading to poor sealing and loss of power. Our bore and hone service ensures every cylinder is perfectly straight and sized to match your pistons, giving you maximum ring seal, compression, and horsepower.
New Builds & Rebuilds
From a clean-sheet race engine to a freshen-up of your current setup, we build to your exact rules, class, and performance goals. Every build is precision-machined, assembled by hand.
Engine Restoration for Collectors
Vintage and rare engines deserve more than just a rebuild — they deserve a true restoration. We offer factory-accurate machining, sourcing, and assembly for collector cars, muscle cars, and historically significant engines.
Cylinder Head Work
The cylinder head is where horsepower is made. We offer custom porting, polishing, and resurfacing to improve airflow and combustion efficiency. Whether you’re chasing high-RPM power or low-end torque, our head work is tailored to your engine and your racing needs.
Balancing
An imbalanced rotating assembly can cause harmful vibration, rob horsepower, and shorten engine life. We balance each component to perfection so your engine runs smoother, revs quicker, and lasts longer.
Blueprinting
When it comes to competitive racing, “close enough” isn’t good enough. Our blueprinting process machines each component to exact tolerances, ensuring maximum efficiency, horsepower, and reliability.
Competition Valve Job
Valve sealing is critical for performance and durability. Our competition valve jobs use precision angles and seat widths to improve airflow, increase horsepower, and extend valve life — keeping you in the race longer.
Crankshaft Grinding
A worn crank can rob you of both power and reliability. We use Callie Crankshafts for all our new rebuilds. For rework we contract out to Mile High Crankshafts in Denver, Colorado who have been in business for over 40 years. They expedite the crankshafts back to us for installation -- giving precision-grind crank journals to exact factory specs, ensuring smooth rotation, proper oil clearance, and long-term durability under high load.
