ABOUT

Nick Lane is a singularly talented engine builder based in Stoughton, WI.  He specializes in Gen III Hemi engines, particularly the 6.4L-based 426 Stroker.  As a result of that focus, he has developed a keen understanding and technical ability to work with that engine and it's unique geometry, creating harmony between custom components and resulting in extreme power, comfortable drivability, and mechanical resilience.  

In order to earn your business, Vanguard Custom Engines provides ultra-premium parts and services - like preloaded custom tuning for turn-key operation - at no extra charge.

Each engine is hand-built specifically for you.  Every detail is accounted for, from employing the highest possible quality bearings, rings, gaskets, and fasteners to verifying that every single spec and clearance are within indicated tolerances.  Even with this laser focus on precision, most engines can be ready for delivery within one to two months of downpayment.  Your Vanguard Siege or Ambush engine will come to you ready to install and after a few hours of focused work, you'll be enjoying your shake-down cruise.
