Engine Building / Large Projects

Q: What is your warranty on VAC engines and heads?

We stand behind our rebuilt engines and heads and offer a 30 day from purchase "Quality Guarantee" on all workmanship and labor in our ‘’rebuilt / refreshed’’ components for manufacturer defects.

However; like all other engine builders or engine remanufacturers, all high performance or race builds & parts are without warrantee. Once the engine/ head is built for use in a high-performance/race application, no warranty is expressed or implied. Any engine/engines/heads intended or modified in any way from 100% stock reconditioning are sold as a "racing component”.

To feel the greatest peace of mind when your engine is under the strain of high performance applications, consider our 'Stage 2' and 'Stage 3' heads, or our fully built engines with Arrow Rods and CP Pistons.
With their upgraded strength and exceptional precision, they are suited for the highest reliability under race and extreme street car use.

Warranty Restrictions:
VAC's warranty covers the component that has failed, and that component only. It does not cover any costs incurred beyond the stated, such as: teardowns, tuning, shipping/ handling/ insurance charges, towing, Mechanic / Service shop time, rentals, etc.
During the warranty period, if your engine or head has a warranty issue, we will hold the cost of repairs on credit card authorization.

 

Q: What is the typical procedure for you to build my engine?

When getting started with an engine build, we typically like to ask our client for the following information:

 

  • What type of fuel will you be using? Octane?
  • What type of engine management will you be running or will you require?
  • What power goals do you have?
  • What type of driving street/track (and how often) will the vehicle see?
  • What interval should the engine be refreshed (if race) or miles/ years between rebuilt (if street)

We can build from a core engine you supply us, or we can also supply a core in cases, on request. Our preference is to work from your currently running engine if possible.

We can also provide you with a freight company that will help you take care of shipping your engine to us from nearly anywhere on the globe, and back.

Payment for race engine building is upfront, though depending on the project, we may be able to start with a 50% deposit.
