Enginetech: The Engine Builder's Source Since 1982

Few names carry as much weight in the engine rebuilding world as Enginetech. Founded in February 1982 by Fred Currey and his business partner Craig Lynch in Carrollton, Texas, this family-owned company has spent over four decades earning the trust of professional engine rebuilders across the country — and around the globe. The story actually stretches back even further, to 1973, when Currey pioneered the practice of importing pistons in bulk volume for resale in the U.S. automotive market, a model that laid the groundwork for what Enginetech would become.

By the early 1990s, Enginetech had grown from its piston-focused roots into a comprehensive engine parts powerhouse. By 1994, the company had expanded its product lineup so extensively that it became a true one-stop shop for engine rebuilders worldwide. Today, with over 15,000 SKUs spanning both domestic and import applications, Enginetech remains one of the most comprehensive sources for internal engine components in the industry.

What sets Enginetech apart is its singular, unwavering focus: every product they offer is engineered with the professional engine rebuilder in mind. While many competing brands have changed hands or diversified away from their core competencies, Enginetech has stayed the course — continuously refining its product offering and dedicating its energy exclusively to the needs of shops that rebuild engines for a living. All Enginetech parts are produced in high-quality, ISO-, TS-, and QS-certified facilities, ensuring that every component meets or exceeds OE specifications.

The breadth of Enginetech's catalog is impressive. Whether you need an individual component or a complete rebuild solution, Enginetech has you covered. Their master rebuild kits are particularly well-regarded for their convenience and completeness, bundling together everything a rebuilder needs — pistons, rings, bearings, camshafts, timing sets, oil pumps, and more — under a single part number.

Among the brand's most popular individual component lines are Engine Valve Lifters, offering precise fits for a wide range of domestic and import engines. Enginetech's Engine Gasket Sets are engineered with the rebuilder in mind, featuring superior material selection and consolidation that outperform standard OE-style designs on rebuilt engines. And for restoring proper compression and combustion sealing, Enginetech's Engine Piston Rings are manufactured from high-grade iron and steel with a variety of ring face coatings suited to different engine applications.

From classic American V8s to modern import four-cylinders, and even agricultural and heavy-duty equipment engines from manufacturers like Cummins, Caterpillar, John Deere, and Kubota, Enginetech's catalog covers an extraordinarily wide range of applications. With nationwide distribution and a knowledgeable sales staff, Enginetech continues to be the engine builder's source of choice — decade after decade.
