Because the Firewall Forward team is relentless in the pursuit of achieving the most reliable and trustworthy aircraft piston engines available. Our patented and FAA approved self-lubricating camshaft ensures our customers that they may achieve full usage of their engines before Lycoming's suggested overhaul threshold. This innovation is effective in eliminating premature camshaft and lifter wear.
By introducing a continuous flow of oil between the cam lobe and lifter face, the friction and temperatures are dramatically reduced allowing the camshaft and lifters to perform to TBO. This innovation was developed after extensive research utilizing state-of-the-art thermal imaging equipment and consulting with forensic metallurgists and aerospace heat-treating specialists.
Producing a premium quality engine overhaul also requires engine accessories of the highest standards - including fuel injection systems, turbochargers, controllers, magnetos, and alternators. By performing accessory overhauls in-house, we not only maintain the highest quality accessories, but achieve complete engine and accessory integration.
Our experienced technicians remanufacture hundreds of engines every year and apply components to a functional engine within days. For custom overhaul or exchange "Quick-Turn" packages, please call or e-mail (info@firewallforward.com)
