FAQs

A) Yes, just be sure to specify the heads you plan to use and desired compression ratio so the proper pistons can be selected. We also offer in-house cylinder head rebuilding services.
Q) Can you install and tune my new engine?
A) Yes, we have service bays for removal of your original engine and installation of your new engine. We also have a Superflow chassis dyno so that we can properly break-in and tune your new combination.
