Located in Catawissa, Pennsylvania, our team proudly works with drivers, fleet managers, and heavy-equipment operators across Bloomsburg, Danville, Numidia, and Elysburg. We’ve built long-standing relationships with diesel owners throughout Columbia County and nearby regions who rely on consistent power to keep their operations moving. Pennsylvania’s industries—from agriculture and logistics to construction and transportation—depend on durable diesel performance, and we understand the level of care and precision those engines demand.
Our rebuilds aren’t just repairs—they’re complete mechanical renewals. Every engine we handle undergoes in-depth diagnostics, cylinder head work, block machining, and crank and piston reconditioning. Once reassembled, engines are tested and calibrated to meet or exceed original manufacturer specifications. Whether it’s a heavy-duty Detroit Diesel, a Cummins workhorse, or a Ford Powerstroke, we restore every engine to deliver the power, torque, and reliability it was built for. At Torque Diesel Performance, we don’t just rebuild engines—we rebuild confidence in every mile ahead.
Our Diesel Engine Rebuild & Overhaul Services
Partial and Full Engine Rebuilds
We perform both complete and partial engine rebuilds depending on your needs. Full rebuilds involve total disassembly, inspection, and replacement of worn components, while partial rebuilds target specific problem areas. Each rebuild follows strict specifications to ensure precision and performance restoration.
Cylinder Head Reconditioning and Repair
Cylinder heads are carefully inspected, pressure-tested, and resurfaced to restore proper compression and sealing. We replace or repair valves, guides, and seats to ensure maximum airflow efficiency and combustion performance—key factors in optimizing your diesel engine’s power and longevity.
Block Machining and Alignment
Our in-house machining services ensure block surfaces and cylinder bores are perfectly aligned and balanced. We correct warping, sleeve-worn cylinders, and hone surfaces to factory specifications, guaranteeing proper fitment and smooth operation for every rebuilt diesel engine.
Crankshaft, Rod, and Piston Work
We restore the engine’s rotating assembly by regrinding or polishing crankshafts, balancing connecting rods, and fitting new pistons and rings. This precision work eliminates vibration, restores compression, and ensures consistent power output across all operating conditions.
Complete Reassembly and Component Installation
After machining and preparation, our technicians meticulously reassemble the engine using OEM-quality components. We ensure correct torque settings, timing, and clearances for each part. This attention to detail guarantees your diesel engine is rebuilt to perform like new.
Final Testing, Calibration, and Quality Assurance
Once rebuilt, every diesel engine undergoes extensive testing and calibration. We check oil pressure, compression ratios, and temperature regulation under simulated load conditions. This ensures the engine performs flawlessly before it ever returns to your vehicle or equipment.
Benefits of Diesel Engine Rebuilds & Overhauls
Extended Engine Life
Rebuilding replaces worn components and restores factory-level tolerances, giving your engine new life. It eliminates fatigue, reduces future breakdown risks, and ensures your diesel engine continues performing for years under heavy-duty conditions without the expense of a brand-new replacement.
Improved Performance and Power
A freshly rebuilt diesel engine delivers restored horsepower, torque, and fuel efficiency. By renewing pistons, rings, and valves, performance is enhanced across all systems—resulting in stronger acceleration, smoother operation, and better pulling power under load.
Cost-Effective Alternative to Replacement
An engine rebuild provides a more economical option than buying a new engine. You retain the original block and components where possible, reducing material and installation costs while achieving comparable reliability and performance.
Customization and Upgrades
Rebuilds offer the opportunity to enhance engine components. Whether upgrading pistons, bearings, or cylinder heads, rebuilds allow performance improvements that match your needs. These enhancements help your engine run cooler, cleaner, and more efficiently than before.
Environmental Sustainability
Rebuilding conserves materials and reduces waste compared to full replacements. By reconditioning existing parts and machining components, rebuilds minimize environmental impact while maintaining powerful performance—making it a greener, more responsible choice for diesel engine owners.
Guaranteed Reliability and Testing
Professional rebuilds involve precision calibration and testing after assembly. Engines are bench-tested for compression, oil pressure, and balance before installation. This ensures dependable performance, reduced downtime, and confidence that your rebuilt diesel engine meets the highest quality standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I consider a diesel engine rebuild or overhaul?
If your diesel engine experiences low compression, excessive smoke, oil consumption, or reduced power, it may need a rebuild. Professional inspection determines whether internal components are worn and if rebuilding is the most cost-effective solution compared to full replacement.
What’s the difference between an engine rebuild and an overhaul?
A rebuild involves disassembling, cleaning, and replacing worn parts to restore factory specifications. An overhaul is more extensive, often including machining, component reconditioning, and full system restoration. Both processes extend engine life and improve overall performance and efficiency.
How long does a typical diesel engine rebuild take?
The timeframe depends on the engine type and the extent of work required. Most rebuilds take between one and three weeks, including disassembly, machining, reassembly, and testing. Our focus is on precision and quality rather than speed, ensuring lasting reliability.
Is rebuilding my diesel engine more cost-effective than replacing it?
Yes. Rebuilding restores your existing engine to like-new condition at a fraction of replacement cost. It reuses the core block and key components, saving money while maintaining performance and longevity comparable to a new engine.
Can any diesel engine be rebuilt?
Most diesel engines can be rebuilt, provided the core block and major components are structurally sound. Our technicians evaluate condition, wear, and manufacturer specifications to determine rebuild eligibility for engines from brands like Cummins, Caterpillar, Detroit Diesel, and Powerstroke.
How long does a rebuilt diesel engine last?
With proper maintenance, a professionally rebuilt diesel engine can perform reliably for hundreds of thousands of miles. Routine oil changes, timely filter replacements, and regular inspections will maximize longevity and protect your investment for years to come.
What warranties are offered on rebuilt engines?
Rebuilt engines typically include workmanship warranties that cover parts and labor for a specified period. These warranties ensure peace of mind and guarantee that all rebuilt components meet strict quality and performance standards.
Does Torque Diesel Performance rebuild engines for commercial fleets?
Yes. Torque Diesel Performance in Catawissa, Pennsylvania, provides professional diesel engine rebuilds for fleet vehicles, trucks, and equipment. Our comprehensive services ensure consistent performance, reduced downtime, and long-term cost savings for businesses that rely on dependable diesel power.
