Many options and parts are now available for these engines..Full rebuilding service is available for the 962C race engine, including many of our own custom parts. Our Cylinder Heads conversion allows for continued use of the Cylinder Heads. Our proprietary Cylinder Head to Liner sealing system has proven successful over the past 20 years and saves thousands on rebuilding costs. As many of these parts are no longer available we have designed replacements made for us by some of the leading engine part manufacturers. 962 and 956 models also serviced.
