After 6 Years of burnout abuse, i decided to send my Llama Engineering 6L back to Llama for a refresh!

Was awesome to see how it had held up after all these years, If you looking to re-power or build a tough street, muscle or burnout car, go talk to Marc and make it happen.

Everything done in house, engine builds, fab work, machining, 3d mock up, CNC work, electrical and dyno tuning.

Its not just been the build, but also the years of support through this journey.

Check out my VLOG tonight on the channel from 6pm.

We just finished another an injected setup for a Mark III Jensen Interceptor. Commonly known as "The Gentlemen’s Express”, she's powered by a 7.2L big block from Chrysler.

In order to increase the reliability a conversion to fuel injection was requested and our lead engineer Frank set about designing a solution that looked period correct, but delivered fuel in a manner far superior to the previous carbureted setup. The air cleaner was been re-attached to hide everything and an ECU powers the beast, managing ignition and fuel delivery.

If you have an old Jensen that you want to run reliability, or are interested in a fuel injection conversion on your old carbureted setup, get in touch!

We recently designed and built a custom air hat assembly for a customers immaculate 1972 Holden Kingswood. The 500 cubic big block Chev needed to breath properly, but the customer didn't want a hole cut in their bonnet for an air cleaner.

We 3D scanned the bonnet and engine bay to determine the space envelope, allowing us to design the manifold with a high-precision, contoured fit. We 3D printed a test piece, made sure it all fitted nicely with the bonnet closed before final machining and assembly. A couple of air-filters split off each side finish her off.

If you would like us to design and manufacture something similar for your daily driver, weekend cruiser or track car, get in touch!
