Do you own an LSX-powered hot rod? Do you have dreams of going fast, but you’re not quite sure how to get there? Well, the experts at Late Model Engines can help. LME engines are powering the quickest and fastest LS cars in the quarter-mile, and the company specializes in custom, high-performance LS engine development, and now, they’ve joined up with Power Automedia to help spread the word. Their Houston, Texas-based shop has the latest in machining equipment including numerous CNC block-machining centers, Sunnen honing systems, Hines balancing equipment, and a SuperFlow flowbench and engine dyno.
Their dyno program helps to validate each engine’s performance before it is delivered to the customer, and there are no cookie-cutter engines here – each one is completely custom-built with the end-user’s ultimate horsepower and performance goals in mind.
As a dealer for the largest names in the LS world, LME can supply you with all of your parts and pieces to get your engine right the first time. Cylinder head department leader Robert Maenza develops all of LME’s port designs – his twenty years of experience in cylinder head and manifold design means that you get to rely on all of his expertise to make your program the best it can be.
They don’t just work on LS engines, though – while checking out their website we found a couple of shots of a ported Viper cylinder head – the fifth combustion chamber gave us a double-take. Check out this page for some good cylinder head porn and this page for a few of their complete engines.
You can also check out LME’s YouTube channel for some cool footage of them at the racetrack and in the dyno room. Check them out!
