2. Automobile engine replacement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile_engine_replacement

   Crate engines are often seen as an economical and more reliable solution as opposed to engine overhauls or custom builds. Such engines are built by specialist engine builders, working in clean and well-equipped workshops, rather than general purpose repair garages. Crate engines may be either brand new, or substantially rebuilt.

3. Break-in (mechanical run-in) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Break-in_(mechanical_run-in)

   At idle speeds on a new engine poor machining tolerances could prevent the lifter from spinning and destroy the camshaft. After 20 minutes of wear, or "self machining" at higher engine speeds they would typically be able to spin freely. In the past, the engine break-in period was very important to the overall life and durability of the engine.

4. Engine tuning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_tuning

   Engine tuning is the adjustment or modification of the internal combustion engine or Engine Control Unit (ECU) to yield optimal performance and increase the engine's power output, economy, or durability. These goals may be mutually exclusive; an engine may be de-tuned with respect to output power in exchange for better economy or longer engine ...

6. Remanufacturing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remanufacturing

   An example is the engine block, in particular the cylinder engine bores, which must withstand combustion. Instead of disposing of engine blocks, remanufacturing enables re-use by coating them with plasma transferred wire arc spraying . Remanufacturing by recoating of parts is also popular in aviation and with geothermal pipe.

7. Engine swap - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_swap

   This engine has a large iron block, with an alloy head and has a pushrod design. They have non-crossflow heads and inbuilt manifolds. These engines are a common swap given the ease of swapping, with mounts, sumps, transmissions etc. crossing over with the stock engine. The CF6 has been succeeded by the SOHC Intech and the DOHC Barra engines.
