Inside the NH Race Engine Workshop
Haagweg 40, Kessel — where every custom engine is machined, assembled and dyno-tested before it ships. This is where "built with precision in the Netherlands" actually happens.
Workshop Capabilities
Everything in-house — because outsourcing steps is how quality escapes.
Engine Dyno Cell
Load-tested power verification up to 1,500 HP. Every custom build leaves with its own data sheet — torque curve, air/fuel, temperatures.
Machine Shop
Block boring and honing, crank balancing, cylinder head resurfacing and valve seat cutting — measured in thousandths, documented in writing.
Fabrication Bay
TIG and MIG welding for custom engine mounts, headers, intercooler piping and swap brackets. If it doesn't exist, we make it.
ECU & Wiring
Custom harness building, ECU flashing and standalone management setup for LS, Hemi, Coyote and diesel swap platforms.
Outboard Test Tank
3,000-litre freshwater tank for run-in, propeller testing and lower-unit pressure checks — no marine engine leaves untested.
Alignment & Corner Weighting
Race-spec alignment rig and corner-weight scales for suspension installs — street, strip or circuit setup.
Parts Warehouse
1,500+ SKUs in stock across engines, transmissions, brakes, suspension and pumps — same-week dispatch on routine orders.
Crating & Dispatch
Purpose-built wooden engine crates with shock indicators and moisture protection. Insured, tracked, EU-wide.
The Workshop in Pictures
Real facility, real equipment, real work. (Replace these with photos of your own workshop — instructions at the top of this file.)
