Our Story

NH Race Engine started the way most good workshops do — with one engine, one customer, and a refusal to do the job twice. What began as a small engine-building operation on the Haagweg in Kessel has grown into a European supplier of performance powertrains and parts.

Today we stock over 1,500 products across six categories — from LS and Hemi crate engines to Mercury outboards, Tremec transmissions, Brembo brake kits and Bilstein suspension. But the workshop never left: every custom build, dyno test and marine service still happens under our own roof.

We're not a box-shifter. We're engine people who happen to run a webshop — and that difference shows in everything from how we crate an engine to how we answer the phone.

What We Stand For

Verified performance. If we say an engine makes 525 HP, we've seen it on the dyno. Every custom build leaves with its own data sheet.

Honest advice. We'd rather sell you the right engine than the expensive one. Our team builds and races this stuff themselves.

European reliability. Real stock in Kessel, insured EU freight, 48-hour dispatch, and warranty support you can actually reach.

Registered & accountable. NH Race Engine is a registered Dutch business (KvK 83495096 · VAT NL003829663B19) with a physical workshop and warehouse at Haagweg 40, 5995 AB Kessel. You're buying from a company you can visit, call and hold accountable.
