John Nijssen
I left New Zealand in 1980 immigrating to the USA in hopes of a career in top fuel drag racing.
However, I spent most of my life in a machine shop machining and rebuilding engines.
In 2002, I began my own business Stroker Engine Export specializing in American V8 engines.
Using stroker crankshafts, roller camshafts, and good aluminum performance heads, making over 500 HP became routine.
This website was built to support advertising in NZV8 Magazine.
If you are interested in an engine or parts, contact me via the contact form within this website.
Custom-built performance engines can take several months to complete.
Using LS engines can take a few weeks.
Shipping to New Zealand takes 8 weeks.
1979
Back in 1979, I built this altered using a methanol-injected 396 BBC.
Back then, I still had a great deal to learn about building performance engines.
Today, so many great engine parts are available that the power output of a modest street engine exceeds that of my altered back then.
I immigrated to the US in 1981 hope of being hired on to a professional drag racing team.
I was naive having no idea how to sell/promote myself.
I took no for an answer.
As a result, I spent the next 20 years reconditioning many varieties of engines.
45 Years
I started Stroker Engine 23 years ago (2002) and have built most of the engines I dreamed of building.
My favorite was a BBC 765 CID with a 14-71 blower and EFI.
Procharger engines.
Max-torque engines for industrial use.
I try to provide what I am asked for.
