Factory-spec, corrective and performance rebuilds
An engine rebuild at Alpine Autowerks starts with teardown and measurement, because an engine tells us its condition once it is apart. You get a documented assessment and a firm plan before any building begins, and an honest comparison when a replacement engine is the smarter path.
Three kinds of rebuild, and three things we do on every engine.
A tired engine returned to the specification it left the factory with.
Known weaknesses engineered out, so the engine goes back together stronger than the factory sent it out.
Built bottom ends and upgraded internals matched to a stated power goal, with reliability as part of the goal.
Precision machining, balancing and blueprint-level measurement. A build is only as good as its tolerances.
Clean-room discipline during assembly, then a proper break-in procedure and follow-up inspection before the engine is asked to work hard.
Every measurement, part number and stage photo in one document. You know exactly what's inside your engine, and so does the next owner.
What the engine is for, what is wrong and what the budget looks like. We are honest at this stage even when it costs us the job.
After teardown and measurement we give you an honest comparison, including when a used replacement engine is the smarter path.
If an engine needs work, we rebuild it in house, and its known failure points are checked as a matter of course.
Factory-trained technicians who work on these platforms every day, and a Calgary reputation built on telling owners the truth about their cars.
Longer than a parts swap, and we won't pretend otherwise. Machine work, measurement and proper break-in take the time they take. We give you a realistic schedule at the assessment stage and keep you updated against it.
A documented rebuild by a reputable shop typically protects value, and often adds it on enthusiast cars. The build file matters as much as the build.
Yes. Engines arrive in cars, on pallets, and occasionally in pieces in boxes. Start with the conversation and we'll go from there.
We service all makes. European and performance engines are what we do daily, and their known failure points are checked as a matter of course.
