MGB Engines

Skiptune have been building MGB engines for over 40 years for both road and prize winning competition.

All Skiptune engines are built to order in our own workshops and are machined to the highest standards and use only the best quality parts.

Skiptune cater for a wide range of standard and fast road engines, all built to your own specification. We can either build you an engine which can be supplied once completed or we can rebuild your own engine which keeps the originality of the vehicle. If you already have components you would like to have built into your new engine i.e cylinder head, camshaft etc, this we will be pleased to do.

PLEASE NOTE ALL OUR ENGINES COME COMPLETE WITH :

  • Flywheel.
  • Clutch Assembly (incl new thrust bearing)
