A few engines ready to reference for parts development.
Here is one of the test cars with all the BBK parts installed. It's
also used for R&D. There are other project cars (3.8L stangs, etc)
and trucks on the lot.
This is the development area. Here new part ideas are hand crafted and
then tested.
A look down a row of CNC machines. CNC is "Computer Numeric Control"
in other words all part milling and lathe operations are all done via
computer to ensure high accuracy.
Walking through we noticed a rack of 4.6L throttle bodies. We were like
kids in a candy store.
One of the many CNC machines that mill and create the parts. There is
a throttle body sitting in this one.
BBK Manufactures throttle bodies for Edelbrock as well. Here a close
up of a TB (throttle body).
How about a rack of TB's all being done in one shot. The R&D on
the manufacturing alone is extensive. All computer programming to control
all of these machines is very complex and had to be custom programmed.
Holders just to hold the throttle bodies and parts are also custom created
and fitted.
