Tomeis complete engine series product range are built from completely new base engines and new parts only. Starting with a brand new OEM block, Tomei machines the block to their specific bore and stroke numbers, increasing the overall capacity of the motor to 2,158cc (2.2 liters). Tomei Forged Pistons, Connecting Rods and Crankshaft are then installed and secured with Tomei reinforced studs.

This package is then topped off with OEM oil jets and thrust washers, and carefully packed and shipped to your door step. This new range of Tomei Short Blocks are always in stock with minimal delivery time so that you dont waste precious time with hectic race schedules.

 

Build Process:

 

CYLINDER BLOCK SURFACE CORRECTION

The blocks surface is milled and the central part cavities are corrected down to the finest details. The heads meting face is increased for accurate optimum sealing characteristics. The block is then prepared for the boring & honing process.

BORING & HONING WITH DUMMY CYLINDER HEAD

The dummy head is fitted to the block to replicate the complete engine assembled for the boring and honing process. This maintains the highest levels of accuracy for the cylinder bore. Honing is processed to reduce friction and increase oil accumulation which helps maintain the tightest piston clearances. All measurements and assembly is performed in a temperature controlled room of 20±1℃. all year round.

REMOVING CASTING ERRORS

The excess casting errors that remain from the factory cast finish, can come off & run through the engine system. This can cause major problems. This important detail must not be missed to remove all unwanted casting burr from the blocks surface & maximize your engines life.

COMPLETE CLEANING & INSPECTION

The high pressure washing & air cleaning are all performed with meticulous detail. The extensive 3 step process is performed in detail with the oil galleries and water jackets. Everything is inspected on the new block to find any faults from the original factory casting for fault lines. Any casting burrs and/or irregularities are then corrected and/or removed.

CRANKSHAFT DYNAMIC BALANCING

The dynamic balancing of the crankshaft reduces unwanted vibrations & increases response, engine speed, extends bearing & engine life for additional power gains. This process optimizes the crankshafts optimum potential.

PISTONS & CONRODS BALANCING

Since the rotating assembly will be used for high engine speeds and extreme conditions, the stress loads will be excessive as well. With the high inertial forces experienced by these components the G-Forces can be up to 2000G so with a tiny difference in weight at those conditions will be a major factor for uneven wear, distortion, performance and engine life. So precision and accuracy with zero or bare minimal weight difference across all components is an absolute must to get the most out of your engine.

MAINS & CONROD BEARING MATCHING

Minimizing friction and increasing lubrication efficiency is optimized by maintaining consistent strict clearances. Both the TOMEI Conrods and TOMEI competition Bearings have been designed to for the best results in minimizing metal fatigue & scoring while improving durability for high power and RPM applications.

CRANK & CONROD THRUST CHECK

Both the Crankshaft & Connecting Rods thrust clearance is checked and kept within the specified values required.

PRECISION ASSEMBLY

Each & every TOMEI Complete Engine Product has been assembled by TOMEI strict engine build processes. Precise, strict tolerances & clearances are all meticulously checked & maintained. All studs/bolts have assembly paste applied; torque settings are checked & performed twice on each & finally tightened with the angle wrench gauge.
