Here's some pics of a Ford 351 Cleveland V8 engine that came in for a complete rebuild. It's been sitting for several years and appears to have ingested some water inside the engine. We'll get it disassembled, thermal cleaned, shotblasted, magnafluxed and inspected to see what all it needs. Motor Mission Machine & Radiator 5435 [...]

Here's some pics of a 4.6 liter Ford Mustang Coyote engine we're machining for a high performance build. In these pics the aluminum block is in our Sunnen line honing machine getting ready to have the housing bore align honed. We have outfitted the main caps with ARP studs and hardware to provide extra strength [...]

Here's some pics of a 350 Chevy small block engine we're rebuilding. In these pics it is a shortblock assembly. A shortblock consists of the crankshaft, pistons/rods, camshaft, and timing set all installed in the block. Once we get the cylinder heads bolted on it will be a longblock and then it will be onto [...]

Here's some pics of a pair of 13.3 liter Hino diesel cylinder heads that came in to get checked out. We performed a magnaflux and pressure test on them and no cracks or leaks were detected. The decks of both heads had impressions from the fire rings of the head gaskets embedding themselves into the [...]

Here's some more pics from "some guy at the mine" of his 5.9 liter Cummins engine transplant project. We did all the machine work to the block, crank, connecting rods and cylinder head for him. He assembled the engine and sent us these pics. In the first pic you can see the aluminum adapter plate [...]

Here's some pics of a set of connecting rods for a Ford Powerstroke diesel engine. They came in to have the wrist pin bushings replaced. The small ends of the rods are tapered so we pressed the old pin bushings out with our tapered pin bushing fixtures and tooling and then pressed in the new [...]

Here's some pics of a 24 valve 5.9 liter Cummins diesel cylinder head with numerous cracks. It came in to get magnafluxed for cracks and pressure tested. This is what can happen to cylinder heads of an engine when the radiator and cooling system fail or aren't maintained. Overheating will result in cracks in the [...]

Here's some pics of a 350 Chevy small block engine block that we did all the machine work to. It got the full works including thermal cleaning, shot blasting, magnaflux for cracks, bore & hone to the cylinders, surface and square of the decks, and align honing to the housing bore. Here we have the [...]

Here's some pics of a Suzuki GSXR aluminum engine block case. This is the upper case and it came in with stripped threads where the head studs screw in. So we machined the holes for and installed Time-Sert thread repair inserts in every hole. If you have broken bolts or studs and damaged threads we [...]

Here's the 351C Ford engine all finished up for the 1970 Torino. We built this Cleveland based engine with 10:1 compression which will complement well with the Comp Cams valvetrain we fitted it with. The rotating assembly is balanced and mated to Clevite rod and main bearings. Finishing off the outside is a set of [...]
