Here at Mazworx, we can prep your block to your specifications. Utilizing our CNC capabilities and state-of-the-art equipment, you can ensure that the machining process is done properly. For more understanding of our process, see the additional information section.
The Stage 3 package is designed for DIY engine builders that want a high performance street/strip upgrade. This block was designed for engines making over 800hp.
Hot Tank Cleaning:
Wash your block to get oil and grim off.
Sand Blast and Paint Block:
After the initial cleaning, your block will be sand blasted resulting in a brand new look. We will then paint the outside of your block with semi-gloss black paint.
Threaded/O-ringed Freeze Plugs:
OEM freeze plugs are known to leak or pop out under high boost. We CNC machine the freeze plug holes to accept our threaded and o-ringed freeze plugs.
Bore:
Our boring process is done on a 3-axis CNC machine ensuring bores are on center. From there it goes to the honing machine. We have the latest Sunnen SV-10 cylinder hone with diamond tooling. This is for the ultimate in cylinder finishing.
Main Studs/Caps and Line Bore:
Our line boring starts with a simple cap grinding. From there it goes into our line boring machine. With our custom tooling, we can bore the main journals within the factory specifications with ease. Line honing is followed to get to exact specifications.
Surfacing:
This process is done in our Centroid A560XL CNC using a coated CBN cutter.
R/R Oil Port Plugs:
This process includes removing all the oil port plugs. By taking out the oil port plugs, we are better able to clean all the oil galleys. Then we will CNC machine the galley holes to accept our o-ring threaded plugs. These have an oring to ensure proper seal and are straight threaded for ease of remove in the future.
Hone with Torque Plate:
We make all of our torque plates for just about every block we work on. Using a torque plate simulates a cylinder head being bolted on during the honing process. When the motor is actually put back together, the cylinder is as true as it was while in the honing machine. Using the torque plate is a must with sleeves install. It is an option on stock sleeve blocks.
