Speed-O-Motive - Crate Engines

Want a high horsepower motor, but don't want to second guess yourself in building it? Why not have over 60 years of first-hand experience behind you with one of our crate engine packages. From a short-block that you can finish up yourself, to fully assembled & plumbed turn-key dyno engines, there's something for everyone at Speed-O-Motive. Any and every motor can be customized to your preference. So if you can't find a combination you like, give us a call and we'll put together a package tailored to your specific needs!

If you're looking for an off-road torque monster for your Jeep, or a unique drag race engine for that Javelin that was passed down through the family, we've got the years of AMC experience you need. With connections like INDY Cylinder head, there's not a part we can't get to build that custom engine all your friends will drool over.

BIG BLOCK CHEVY

Street, drag race, marine, pump gas, race gas, alcohol, blown and fuel injected, there's nothing like the jaw dropping power and torque of a big block Chevy. We offer endless combinations for Gen IV, V, and VI engines. From our budget 500HP 454cid pump gas engine, to our brutal 1100HP 632cid drag race monster, there is no big block we can't build for you.

BIG BLOCK FORD

When you move up to a big block Ford, you won't ever go back to a small block. From FE's to 460's, we've built most of the popular stroker combinations. So don't junk that big block because the market for the 302/351 is flooded. Step up and be different with a Speed-O-Motive blue-printed engine.

We're no stranger to Mopar's here. As perennial contestants in Mopar Muscle's Engine Challenge, we've tested combinations you could only dream of. So if you need a daily driver 383, or an all aluminum blown Hemi, we can build and test almost anything you can imagine.

FORD MODULAR ENGINE

We've taken notice to the growing trend of high horsepower Modular engines popping up everywhere. Many of these big power Mod motor guys are running turbocharged setups which is something we're definately not unfamiliar with. So if you're looking for alittle extra grunt for your daily driver, or a twin 80mm+ turbo setup, we've got the facilities and connections to accomodate you.

Southern California was the mainstage for the burst of Sport Compact tuners back in the late 80's and early 90's with Honda's. Since then, we've taken great strides to make ourselves a premier import engine builder. With full CNC machining capabilities for engine blocks and cylinder heads, and an in-house engine dyno. We can custom tailor any build for any application.

SMALL BLOCK CHEVY

We know these things like the back of our hands. With EXTENSIVE in-house research and development through our CORR off-road racing program, we've come to devlop some of the highest tech small block Chevy's you'll find around. So if you're looking for a tire-roasting 425HP pump gas 383cid motor for your street rod, or that big & nasty 450cid fuel injected race gas motor, we've got it! We've expanded our small block section to include several Gen-III L-Series based engines for your late model F-Body or Corvette.

SMALL BLOCK FORD

Ford, a legendary name to any American. This very company started out with the Flat-Head. Over 60 years later, we're still fans and haven't stopped testing new and different combinations for the 302, 351 Windsor and the rare 351 Cleveland's. Our stroked out 351W to 408cid 2005 Engine Masters contest motor may not have won, but it did turn heads. Will well over 1000 hours put into the engine build and testing, we've got these builds down to a science.

Every year since 2005 we've entered the Mopar Muscle Engine Challenge. This year we've got a nasty little small block we hope to produce some big numbers from. You can check in on the build specifications here right on our website in this section! We've even gone as far to do a limited time promotion!
