A typical rebuilt engine comes with an excellent warranty covering both time and mileage. Some are available with an extended warranty as well. Engine rebuilders have meticulous standards, often exceeding those under which the original engine was produced. In fact, says Deegan, a rebuilt engine often outperforms and outlasts the engine that originally came in the vehicle. Many of the new components are from the same production lines that supply the vehicle manufacturer.
Technology keeps improving, so every engine from our assembly procedure benefits from that updating.
This caliber of technician treats an engine as if it were his work of art. Indeed, it is, he concludes. Rebuilding offers environmental advantages, too. A rebuilt engine is likely to be more fuel efficient, use less oil and produce fewer emissions than a malfunctioning engine. Further, this a recycled product, in that most blocks and heads are machined and reused instead of being discarded and melted down in energy-hungry furnaces.
