Your engines thoroughly tested for your assurance by the best engine staff in the business:

  • You get meticulous inspection, preparation, and attention to detail on every engine part prior to assembly and onsite dynamometer testing. We reject a lot of parts other engine builders would use because they don’t meet our exacting standards for reliability.
  • Your engine is properly broke in. We take the engine, cams, and parts through a proper break-in period so you know its done right for you by our engine professionals.
  • You get the actual advertised horsepower you expect and paid for. We verify Power and Torque. We make our advertised horsepower.
  • Verify Engine Calibration and Performance so your engine is dialed in and ready to run.
  • Ensure Leak Free. Nobody like surprises, so we test everything so you can depend on your engines.
  • Adjusted and Fine Tuned. One last tweak in our continued attention to detail to give you the reliable engines you expect. They don’t say Sterling Performance for nothing.
  • All our Sterling Performance engines are recorded and tracked to ensure they are the real-deal. We document our engines to verify authenticity and ensure no posers or hoax engines attempt to pass themselves off as the real leader. You can’t fake a Sterling Performance engine. There are no short cuts to being the best.

Availability is dependent on current work loads. Winter months are the best, we can build an engine for you within one month from the time you place the order. However, expect a two to three month delay during peak season time, Spring, Summer, and Fall.
