What makes Engine Factory different from the Mass Marketing Mail order Engine Companies?
1. Mass Marketed Engines are available in one size fits all. This certainly makes life easier for the distributor but not to the customer. After reading the fine print there are frequently a lot of modifications to the engine needed to fit your vehicle. For instance: Oil Pan, Oil Screen, Dipstick and tube, Flywheel, Water Pump, Fuel Pump, Harmonic Balancer, Valve Covers, Intake Manifold, Distributor, Thermostat housing etc. What’s the purpose of buying an assembled engine if you need to disassemble it and build it again? When you order an Engine Factory we ask the right questions specific to your vehicle so the engine is setup right the first time!
2. Mass Marketed engine companies don’t sell a truly Ready to run Engine. Bear in mind they may come complete with the essentials but look at a typical list of parts needed to make it a truly Turnkey Ready engine: Carburetor or Fuel injection Kit (We provide the computer, Harness and sensors) Throttle return spring, Air Cleaner, Intake Manifold, Distributor, ignition wires, coil, spark plugs, fuel Pump, Fuel Lines, Pulleys with the Alternator, Power Steering or A/C compressor. It’s important to make an apples to apples comparison.
3. Does your engine look any different from any different from anybody else’s? When you pop open the hood having an engine that has been tailored to your needs is a great feature. Engine Factory offers our engines in a range of different engine block colors, ignition wire colors, pulley kit options and polished packages. This isn’t easy selling a customized crate motor but we know it really makes a difference to our customers.
4. Do they really know about engines? Often times when speaking to a salesman over the phone you'll get a price and then often a reply “Do you want the engine or not”? That’s it!! Engine Factory deals solely with Engines so we don’t try to be everything to everybody. With thousands of engines produced and sold over the years, we'll work with you to find the right engine combo, ask the right questions and offer suggestions. We'll spend the time to go in detail on what you'll get, not get and guidelines for an easier installation. Put our 40 years of experience to work!! Unfortunately personalized attention is considered more of a luxury to most companies these days.
5. Are you buying Horsepower or Heartache? We’ve read our share of articles in a Hot Rod Magazine about a 1000 Horsepower Supercharged Twin Turbo engine hooked up with a bottle of nitrous. For all intensive purposes these cars are useless for a daily driver. Be cautious of the lure for big Horsepower and Torque numbers. It can look impressive on a piece of paper but when you’re spending more time under the hood rather than actually behind the wheel it loses its appeal fast! The fact of the matter is Low end power out of your car or truck is more important than what the horsepower numbers are @ 6000 RPMs. We setup most of our engines to achieve its torque & HP to kick in below the 4000 RPM range so you experience the power without mashing the throttle to 100 mph. Our objective is to provide an engine that is easy to install, fun to drive, responsive to the throttle and deliver years of driving pleasure.
6. Is the Engine Live Run Tested under Real World Conditions for 40 Minutes?
Most engines may be spin tested for Oil pressure but that's about it. When you buy an engine from the Engine Factory each Ready to Run engine purchased from us is Hot run tested. Checked for Oil pressure, vacuum problems, coolant leaks, Fuel leaks, Timing is Setup, Fuel Mixtures, Idle and another 25 other steps involved. Ask before your Purchase, It's your Money, Why take a chance? We have revolutionized the Crate Engine Industry and continue to do so.
