Race Engine Building

At Torque Developments International, we understand the importance of engine performance and reliability to the success of your project. We take high-performance and race engine building and testing processes very seriously indeed, and we’re proud to say that the results achieved over the decades reflect this.

Developing high-performance engines has been the backbone of Torque Developments International since the company’s inception in 1984. In the last decade we have broadened our capabilities, producing world-class engines for not only automotive and motorsport, but also aerospace and marine applications, working with precision and pace to find new solutions to the engineering challenges we encounter.

Whether your project is a refresh, a mild upgrade over standard or a Motorsport full race endurance engine, we can help to deliver your objectives and provide a successful outcome.

In order to produce competitive engines, there is no substitute for the highly skilled craftsman using modern and accurate equipment, supported by an experienced team of development engineers and component procurement staff.

Our modern facility provides a clean-room production environment where each and every process is carried out to strict ISO9001 quality principles and within a comprehensive “no fault forward” culture. Each critical dimension and clearance is measured and recorded for archiving and future use.

In all engine preparation processes, careful design and meticulous attention to detail is standard. In most cases, a single qualified Engine Technician will be responsible for the entire Torque Developments engine building process from the initial strip down through to final testing and commissioning.

Most race engine building processes are accomplished in-house in order to fullfil our Quality Assurance standards. However there are some machining processes required that we do not have so use trusted 3rd-party contractors having the same quality control standards in order to achieve perfect outcomes.

Full documentation of the specifications of each engine is recorded for your information and peace of mind.

We are familiar with most types of spark ignition engines including rotary, in-line and all V configurations, so please contact us to discuss your race engine build and test requirements.

With regard to testing and validation, we have facilities for airflow testing and engine break-in and calibration in a safe and controlled environment.
