From an Engine Machining perspective our expertise lies with giving engine components and assemblies a thorough technical examination before sentencing of the components takes place. This sentencing basically determines whether or not the components or assemblies can be refurbished using our machinery or need to be completely replaced with new parts. We do also offer a strip down and re-assembly service for items such as cylinder heads however, we do not offer a service to remove engines from the vehicles themselves.
