  • Block inspected, then bored with a Rottler Computer Assist Boring Machine

  • Machined as necessary all block surfaces

  • Chamfer all ports

  • Rottler computer assisted diamond honed to fit all cylinders with new pistons and rings

  • Final ultrasonic cleaning of block assembly

  • All end gaps checked with new pistons, wrist pins, and bearing package

  • Crankshaft inspected for damages and fit

  • Crankshaft repaired or replaced as necessary

  • Final inspection prior to assembly

Gleason Crankshaft Welder

The Gleason welder allows us to weld/buildup material on the journal before grinding it back down to the proper tolerances.  This way we can create a strong repair in a journal that is soft or has pits/small cracks.

Ruaro RG-230 Crankshaft Grinder
Our RG-230 provides full crankshaft grinding capabilities. It’s allows us to maintaining the proper radius at each journal during grinding to enhance the crankshaft strength and life. Grinding to assure equal stroke length is vital in great performance.
BRIDGEPORT MILLING MACHINE
This machine is used in various milling aspects as needed. Resurfacing done accurate and cleaner.
ROTTLER F3 BRIDGE BORING BAR
Used for block cylinder boring and sleeve work. Will produce accurate bores for a lifetime.
GB 800 Fuel Injector Cleaning/Testing System

We have the ability to perform ultrasonic cleaning on injectors.  This back flush procedure provides the most thorough cleaning possible.  We can then test each injector’s spray pattern and flow rate to ensure top performance.

 
ROTTLER H85A HONING MACHINE
We use diamond finish controlled hones to achieve the correct finish and size on each cylinder.  
This process is necessary to achieve the necessary clearances. With accuracy of .0001 of an inch needed for correct piston and ring operations.
CUDA MODEL H20 II

 

As part of the re-manufacturing processes the block and many other parts are thoroughly cleaned in our Cuda pressure washing system.
