Engine Building & Machining Services Est.1968

For over 50 years we have been serving the road, track and race communities with engines and machining services that offer not only excellent value-for-money, but come from years of experience and knowledge. Our workshops have a wide-range of machining capabilities giving our customers a distinct advantage.


Classic & Modern Engine Rebuilds

The variety of old-school vehicles still being lovingly restored and maintained keeps us very busy, as does the rebuilding of higher-mileage engines in vehicles ranging from daily-use runabouts to highly-prized, high-performance rocket ships. We cater for both extremes! With a good source of parts to hand and the equipment to repair, restore, enhance and upgrade your original engine we can make that project happen for you. Likewise if your daily runabout or commercial vehicle needs an engine, we can rebuild it in-house, or supply you with an off-the-shelf petrol or diesel engine – often within 48 hours, fully warrantied by exchange.


Race & Competition Engines

Machining & Refurbishment Services

We are lucky enough to have the skills and knowledge in-house to provide customers with a wide range of services to suit their needs when it comes to building their own engines or repairing and remaking components. While we receive engines for rebuilds from all over the world, we typically serve the local areas of Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire with our machining services. You may be surprised what we can do for you under our one-roof, so take a look at our SERVICES pages for the full list.


Engine Parts & Components

We hold a huge stock of and have access to a massive range of components for the popular marques such as Ford, Jaguar, Rover, MG, Austin and Lotus., with parts ranging from classic to modern. This gives us an advantage in being able to repair and recondition engines using components that are not always readily-available.

Typically we have good supply and often hold new old stock for engines we build and repair such as:

  • Ford – Duratec, Zetec, Sigma, Kent Crossflow and Pinto
  • Rover – A-Series, O-Series, T-Series and K-Series
