Installation & Fitting — NH Race Engine (Preview)
Workshop Service — Kessel, NL

Installation & Fitting

We install everything we sell — engines, transmissions, suspension, brakes, outboards — fitted by the same people who built or tested it. Drive in, drive out.

What We Install

One workshop, one invoice, one warranty. No finger-pointing between the seller and the installer — we're both.

🚗

Engine Installation

Crate engines, custom builds and swaps — mounts, plumbing, wiring, ECU, fluids and first start. Including full LS/LT/Coyote swap packages.

⚙️

Transmission & Drivetrain

Manual and automatic transmissions, converters, clutches, flywheels, driveshafts, differentials — aligned and torqued to spec.

🏎️

Suspension & Brakes

Coilovers, control arms, big brake kits, sway bars — finished with race-spec alignment and corner weighting on our scales.

🌊

Outboard Rigging

Outboard mounting, controls, steering, fuel systems and propeller setup — then tank-tested before handover.

🔌

ECU & Wiring

Stand-alone management installs, custom harnesses, clean power and grounds — routed like it came from the factory.

🧰

Accessory Fitment

Superchargers, turbo kits, intercoolers, fuel systems, gauges — complete with dyno verification where it counts.

Why Have Us Fit It?

An engine is only as good as its installation. When we fit what we sell, you get advantages no separate installer can offer:

  • Full warranty chain — parts AND labour under one 12-month warranty, one point of contact
  • The builders are the fitters — the people who assembled your engine install it
  • Dyno break-in included — engines installed by us are broken in and verified on our dyno
  • Correct fluids & procedures — factory-spec fill, bleed and torque sequences, documented
  • Written handover — itemised invoice, torque records, dyno sheet, maintenance schedule
  • Vehicle collection — insured pickup and delivery across NL, BE and western DE

Common Questions

Generally yes, provided the parts are complete, correct for your vehicle and in new condition. Note that customer-supplied parts carry our labour warranty only — part defects remain with your supplier. When we supply the part, both are covered under one roof.

Yes — insured vehicle collection and delivery across the Netherlands, Belgium and western Germany. Boats on trailers same deal. Further afield, we work with enclosed transport partners. Mention it when requesting your quote.

We tell you upfront — and the table above gives typical durations. Your booking reserves the bay and the parts, so the clock starts when your vehicle arrives, not weeks later. If a job uncovers surprises (rust, previous bad repairs), we call before doing anything beyond the quote.

Positively — engines and parts installed by us carry extended labour coverage, and installation by our workshop removes the most common cause of warranty disputes: fitting errors. Register your warranty after handover on our registration page.

Just the vehicle, all keys, and any paperwork for parts we're fitting. For swaps: photos of the engine bay beforehand help us plan. We'll photograph everything on intake and send you updates as the job progresses.
