Speedster, Replicar, & Kit Car

It seems that at least 50% of our engines recently have been ordered for replicars, Most of these customers who have a desire for a better engine, or those who like unique powerplants choose us for the powerplant for their dreams. We realize that many owners of these vehicles have one thing in common, the desire for reliable, street driven, longevity filled horsepower. If you want to drive your replicar, rather than work on it, we can supply you with a 100% complete, ready to install engine, and even ship it to the manufacturer of your car if you desire. Choosing our engine also gives you the opportunity to have us electronically match your powerband with the necessary gearing for your style of driving and the engine power output.

What separates US, from THEM!

We have several engines dedicated solely to these vehicles, their weight, character and gearing. We offer both Type I and Type IV engines in complete turnkey form for these applications. Each engine is electronically configured and tested/proven before we offer them. Every engine is completely dyno tuned with our on-site Stuska Dyno, so the guess work is forgotten about. Our customers receive a crated, tested, professionally dyno tuned engine, not one of our competitors will put your engine through the intense testing that we do, guaranteed. When you receive your engine only minor adjustments will be needed to make it drive like a dream, in your dream car!

Chamonix/Beck Spyders and Speedsters are now available right from the manufacturer with pedigreed, dyno tested and proven powerplant combinations. See Aircooled Technology's Chamonix/Beck Spyder drag car on Speed Channel.

Proven Power!

The engines listed here are modified, but very reliable, and though they carry no written warranty we have no problems keeping them on the road for years, our reputation for the most reliable HP preceeds our product, the product speaks for it's self! Warranties do not keep parts from breaking, they are used by many establishments as a selling point, not here. We offer extensive dyno tuning/testing for 8 solid hours to prove the integrity of our product while under the watchful eye of instruments. One of our final tests after the engine has had fuel and ignition optimization is to set the throttle and load at 3500RPM with a 30 HP load to simulate driving conditions. We do this for 45 solid minutes and record the findings. Many other replicar engine producers build 3 times as many engines per year as we do, they may give you 3-4 dyno pulls, it may take them 2 hours. We test the engine as it will be installed into your vehicle, with YOUR exhaust, cooling system, induction, etc., as this is the only way to do accurate test work.

Specifications!

Our customers get the added benefit of a complete 30+ page manual of specifications, directives and scheduled maintenenace for their engine. This manual is not "Generic" and made as a "One size fits all". This manual is a direct reflection of your engine and includes intricate details of each part in your engine. It accurately states the torque specs, brand of parts used, specifications they were set to, and even lengths of pushrods. The problem with many modified engines is that you have no idea of exactly what the engine is, what parts comprise it, or even how much oil capacity it has. Our competitors might give you a page specifying what oil to use and what to set the valves at, but otherwise everything is unknown. You never know when you can suffer a small part failure or even a broken fan belt. With our "engine blueprint specification manual" our customer will never have these problems, it is all in writing and made for their particular engine. This alone is enough to separate "Our product" from "Theirs". This manual adds plenty of extra hours to the job, especially since every step of the assembly process is recorded for entry into the manual.
