On this episode of Rottler Featured Series, join us at one of America’s premier auto racing engine building, rebuilding, testing, design and development facilities, Ed Pink Racing Engines in Van Nuys, California.

EPRE conducts engine design and development on a large variety of engines. Recent projects include a 2 valve 4 cylinder 2.7-liter methanol fueled racing engine and 4 valve engines developed for off road truck racing.

Other engine projects at EPRE vary from the rebuilding and updating of 900 hp turbocharged race engine for GTP vintage racing, Cosworth DF Formula One and Indy engines, and Cosworth XD Indy engine for vintage racing. They’ve also done the design evaluation of a motorcycle engine and contributed to the development of road racing engines for use in South America.

To get all this work done, EPRE depends in a trio of Rottler machines, including an S7M surfacer (now the S85 series), an F67A CNC (now the F69A), and an EM69HP CNC Engine Machining center. According to head machinist Gianni Jeong, these machines have allowed them to double their weekly output while producing work that meets, and often exceeds, manufacturer specs.

We’re pleased to play our part in this legendary shop’s story!
