Power Cylinder Hone


After the block is bored this machine removes the final .003-.004
thousandths and puts the final finish on the cylinders, making them perfectly round.

Sunnen Line Hone


When a crankshaft mainline moves out of alignment we correct this problem by cutting a small amount of material off of the main caps, then retorque the main caps onto the block, making the main housing bore smaller. The block then goes in this machine and the line hone, resizes and realigns the crankshaft mainline.

DCM Tech Block and Head Surfacer


The surfacer simply removes material from the surface of the block to ensure a true flat surface on the deck of the block, commonly known as "surfacing or milling".
For high performance or racing applications a block can be square decked on this machine.
  • Surfaces both iron and aluminum cylinder heads
  • for automotive motorcycle or RVs
  • Surfaces exhaust manifolds
  • Angle mill for high performance applications

  • Hines Computerized Balancing Center


    Balancing is an extremely critical part of an engines operation expectancy and performance. Balancing ensures the lifespan of an engine by reducing friction and eliminating vibration and releasing available horsepower. When balancing an engine each rod and piston is weighed and balanced so that all pistons weigh exactly the same and the rods weigh exactly the same. Rod bearings and rings are also weighed and recorded. All of these weights are then recorded into the computer and used in a formula to determine a "bobweight"(simulates rod and piston rotating weight). Bobweights are then installed on the crankshaft, then spun on the balancer. The computer reads the amount of imbalance and we correct it on the crankshaft accordingly.

    Precision honing Harley-Davidson cylinders


    After boring the cylinders, they are placed in a special honing fixture. They are then honed to the exact specified size, giving pistons proper clearance. This is critical in your Harley Davidson air cooled motor. We can bore and hone whatever you ride, Old Iron, Evo, and S&S motors. Performance Harley Davidson headwork also available.
