Mack E7 Engines For Sale

The Mack E7 engine was first conceptualized in 1988 by Mack Corporation engineers and then officially introduced in 1989. The Mack E7 Engine replaced the Mack E6 model and was produced over a span of 20 years. The engine was predominantly used in commercial 18 -wheel trucks. Over its period of production, the engine was subject to some reformations until it was finally ceased in early in the 21st century. The Mack E7 was one the most popular industrial diesel engines of all time.

Both large scale and small-scale operations flocked to the Mack E7 Engine because of its reliability and fuel efficiency. Up until 1999, Mack ended up producing 16 different variations of the E7. Mack E-Tech engines are still being produced today and still retain their reputation for their outstanding horsepower to weight ratio. Mack E-Tech engines are 6-cylinder multi-system cooled. The typical horsepower rating for the Mack E7 is between 250-400 hp.

Remanufacturing Process

For those of you reading this that are unfortunate enough to have seen your engine endure a catastrophic failure, a remanufactured E7 long block would be the perfect remedy. Moreover, if you have good re-usable external components that are still functionable, then these can be salvaged from your beloved E7. Most importantly, this would be a good alternative if your trying to save some money.

We always uphold a professional level of service, whatever the task. In the sphere of remanufacturing, we ensure this level of quality is upheld by first executing a full core tear down, cleaning, inspection, and machining of the engine. This is carried out on every engine before it leaves our facility.

It is important to note, that all of our E7 remanufactured long blocks are built with both reman and new parts. Therefore, we do not just recondition or refurbish old parts, instead we entirely rebuild the old E7 engine back to its original OEM specs.

Thorough Cleaning

Thorough cleaning is imperative in the process; therefore, we strive to rid your engine of any impurities that could contribute or cause both component failure or engine failure. This is achieved by stripping the E7, then putting the blocks, heads, rods, crankshafts, and camshafts through a chemical jet wash or hot tank.

Crankshafts

Before our quality control department inspect the final product, the crankshafts are precision machined to the precise tolerances, polished and magnafluxed.

Cylinder Heads

Heads are resurfaced to guarantee a proper sealing surface with the block and a finish compatible with today's new gasket materials. Valve height is mic-d and every head is vacuum tested to assure correct valve seating.

Cylinder Blocks

The magnetic we use is used to pick up even the slightest of defects, therefore this is used when the block is inspected for any cracks or additional damage. The cylinders and then bored, honed and again inspected to the specific tolerances. Torque plate honing is performed on particular engines to eliminate the chances of cylinder head distortion after the head is bolted and torqued to the block. This process eliminates the main cause of engine blow-by. Block surfaces are then machined and inspected to ensure proper finish.

Camshafts

Camshafts are inspected and precisely machined to provide correct lift. Lobs are measured with a micrometer to make sure OEM tolerances are met.

Connecting Rods

In order to achieve even distribution of stress on the bearings, the connecting rods are cleaned, then machined to OEM specs, then honed to the standard diameter of the original equipment. New bushings are also fitted and machined in all bushed rods, every rod is also inspected for any bend and/or twist.

New Parts

Good performance and reliability are what we strive for, therefore, all E7 engines will receive a set of new parts such as pistons and rings, bearings, gaskets and sealers, and liners. These parts consist of both OEM and Aftermarket when available.
