Wilcox Race Engines specialise in engines and the design and

manufacturing of engine components, because of this we are able to
dedicate our facilities entirely to the building, testing and development of
high performance race engines.

Old friends Keith Duckworth,Ben Rood, Mike Costin, Mike Hall (Cosworth
Directors) and John get together to discuss the good old days. John has worked
together with Keith Duckworth and Mike Costin on various development projects
over the years.
The building of our engines is far from simply bolting together the various engine
parts, each component is subject to close inspection and where required crack tested.
The accurate measuring of critical tolerances is crucial to the reliability and
performance of an engine. Each engine is hand assembled in one of two surgically
clean, build workshops with the utmost care and attention to detail. Every engine
carries its own number, allowing us to keep on file all details and specifications of the
engine, assisting us with future rebuilds and the supplying of correct parts.

As we build engines for works teams and also develop

engines for major manufacturers, some of the non-
confidential knowledge gained from this can be passed
on to our private customers, who are having their
engines built by the same technicians who build the
works units.
As can be seen in our Engine Gallery, we build all types
of engines for all types of Motorsport, whether the need
is for the most modern or historic, we can tailor our
engine building service to your requirements. Our
commitment to your engine does not stop there,
technical advice is freely available and trackside
support world-wide if required.

Wilcox engines can be found in all four corners of the globe, winning competitions and
championships. Our meeting room sees many visitors from around the world
throughout the year where customers can discuss projects or engine requirements and
see the facility that will carryout their work.
