Cyl head valve seats are machined on a Newen EPOC 3 axis CNC machining center

Here the valve seats in a std Holden 253 head are being taken to L34 spec valve diameter, to see a video on this machine in action follow the link to our performance side of our business

Balancing your engine assembly is a must; it relieves all your torsional stress on your blocks main tunnels and in turn sends the wasted horse power thrashing around in your crank case into gains at the back wheels. Our state of the art computerized C.W.T 5000 engine balancer is world renowned for its 3rd plane of inspection, this along with the correction software is able to correct imbalances quickly and accurately, the software is also able to calculate heavy metal vectoring which is quite common in big block stroker cranks. We are able to achieve NASCAR specs at will and will provide a computer generated bob weight card that gives you the initial spin imbalance data as well as the final spin data, it also calculates the imbalance loads that end up on the con rod from one thousand RPM through to ten thousand RPM, it will surprise you on how much load that in fact ends up on the con rod, this is also supplemented with individual piston, gudgeon pin, con rods, rings, clips and bearing weights.

Crack detection is the first thing that must be done so we can be sure there are no flaws in your casting before any major machining is done. This machine will detect cracks in blocks, crankshafts, con rods and cylinder heads, pretty much any thing that can be magnetized. Once the inspection has finished we simply de-magnetize the component ensuring that we have neutralize the magnetic field.
