Whether you just want a proven and convenient solution for your project vehicle, or your racing class mandates one, shop at Summit Racing Equipment for crate engines!
Building a new engine (or restoring an older one) takes time, tools, and lots of tuning, so buying a crate engine can be a wise investment. You can also decide how much finishing and customizing you want to do:
A short block includes a balanced rotating assembly and little else.
A long block usually comes with cylinder heads, oil pan, camshaft, and valve covers, along with horsepower and torque ratings

Building a new engine (or restoring an older one) takes time, tools, and lots of tuning, so buying a crate engine can be a wise investment. You can also decide how much finishing and customizing you want to do:
A short block includes a balanced rotating assembly and little else.
A long block usually comes with cylinder heads, oil pan, camshaft, and valve covers, along with horsepower and torque ratings
A fully dressed engine includes everything except front drive accessories (like alternators and power steering pumps), and even a warranty!
These terms aren’t that precise, and can mean different things to different manufacturers, so make sure the crate engine you buy comes with everything you need and nothing you don’t. For more detailed information about selecting a crate motor for your project, check out this article on our official blog, which includes a helpful video.

Chevrolet Performance 1.4L 85 C.I.D. Remanufactured Long Block Crate Engines
Chevrolet Performance 1.4L 85 c.i.d. remanufactured long block crate engines consist of the engine block, crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, piston rings, cylinder head assembly (including valve train components), lifters, camshafts, timing gears and chain, timing chain dampener, front cover, oil pump, cam cover, and oil pan. The turbocharged Ecotec 1.4L is part of GM's small-displacement, power-dense four-cylinder engines. The wide rpm range for maximum torque helps the engine deliver better driving experience and performance. This turbocharged engine's power-boosting advantage comes from forcing greater airflow into the engine. Its pressurized charge packs more air into the cylinders, allowing them to process the air and fuel of a larger engine for momentary driving situations. The 1.4L's turbocharger is integrated within the exhaust manifold, for reduced weight and greater packaging flexibility in smaller vehicles. The engine incorporates numerous mass-reducing features, including a cast iron block with a hollow frame structure, hollow-cast camshafts and a plastic intake manifold. NOTES: Includes spark plugs, crankshaft balancer, oil filter bypass valve, oil pressure relief valve, oil filter, water pump, thermostat, coolant temperature sensor, camshaft position solenoid, heated oxygen sensor, camshaft position sensor, crankshaft position sensor, knock sensor, and oil sensor switch.
