Founded in 1978 by Steve Elsasser, EPR Engines has built a reputation for excellence in engine rebuilding, custom race engines, cylinder head development, and precision machining. For nearly five decades, our commitment to quality craftsmanship, technical expertise, and customer satisfaction has made us a trusted name among muscle car enthusiasts, racers, and automotive professionals.

Today, the company is owned and operated by Steve’s son, Keith Elsasser, who continues the tradition of excellence while bringing modern technology and advanced performance-engineering techniques to every project. Keith’s passion for engine building and machining was further refined through his studies at Joe Mondello’s renowned technical school, where he developed advanced skills in cylinder head technology, airflow development, precision machining, and high-performance engine design.

At EPR Engines, we specialize in classic muscle car engines, custom race engine builds, cylinder head machining, and complete engine restoration services. Every engine is carefully measured, machined, and assembled with uncompromising attention to detail. Whether restoring a numbers-matching classic, building a street-performance engine, or creating a championship-caliber race engine, our goal is always the same: deliver maximum performance, reliability, and value.

Combining old-school craftsmanship with state-of-the-art machining practices, EPR Engines takes pride in producing engines that exceed expectations. From our family-owned roots to our dedication to precision and performance, we remain committed to helping customers get the most from their engines—on the street, at the track, and everywhere in between.
