Complete Engine Overhaul

Our complete overhaul means the engine is stripped down to the last bolt, thoroughly cleaned, and all worn components are professionally remanufactured or replaced with brand new ones. No cosmetic touch-ups – this is a full restoration to original factory specifications. Every engine is then tested under load on a dynamometer. Each engine comes with a warranty certificate and an official test report, including all measured data and a performance graph.
