​
Our comprehensive engine reconditioning service is designed to restore your engine to peak performance, ensuring reliability and longevity. We offer a wide range of services, and as members of the Federation of Engine Re-Manufacturers you can trust us to complete work to a high standard.
Re-boring
Engine re-boring is a crucial process in restoring worn-out engines. Our precision re-boring service increases cylinder diameter to accommodate new, larger pistons. This not only restores compression but can also increase engine power and efficiency. We use advanced machinery to ensure perfect cylindricity, ring sealing and surface finish.
Cylinder heads and valve work
Our cylinder head services include pressure testing, refacing, and valve seat cutting. We can repair cracks, replace valve guides, and resurface the head to ensure a perfect seal with the engine block. Our valve work includes regrinding or replacing valves and lapping them to achieve a perfect seal. We can also convert cylinder heads to run on unleaded/gas fuels where feasible.
Crankshafts
The crankshaft is the backbone of your engine, and its condition is critical to smooth operation. Our crankshaft services include grinding, polishing, and balancing. We can repair worn journals, straighten bent crankshafts, and more to ensure your rare or vintage engine can operate efficiently.
"Had a Camry V6 engine with a few issues, took it to Mark for a full bottom end rebuild.
Very honest and helpful and plenty of communication throughout the rebuild. Engine is now fully rebuilt and in my MR2, and running a treat! Took a while but worth it in the end. Good job!"
