Trust is earned, and it’s something we never take for granted.
Unfortunately, John was hit with some bad news when a valve seat failure caused major engine damage in his VE SS Wagon. When it came time to put things right, he trusted the team at PSI Performance to take care of the job from start to finish.
With the Gen 4 LS V8 out of the car, we stripped it down and carried out a complete recondition from top to tail. The package included new pistons, bearings, full gasket set, comprehensive machining, precision balancing, a camshaft upgrade kit, CNC ported cylinder heads with of course new che valve seats and all the supporting modifications required to make the combination work reliably and efficiently.
We don’t believe in shortcuts. Every engine that leaves our workshop carries our name and reputation with it, so attention to detail is everything. This Gen 4 LS has been built to last and built to perform keeping budget in mind respectfully & the owners use for the vehicle.
The wagon is now back in John’s hands for the bedding-in process before returning to us for a full health check and dyno tune where we’ll dial everything in and make the most of the new combination.
One thing we’ve always stood by at PSI Performance is that we look after the people who look after us. Loyalty goes much further than money ever will. The trust and support our customers continue to show us is something we’re genuinely grateful for, and we’ll always do our best to return that loyalty through our workmanship, service, and commitment to getting the job done right.
Thank you again, John, for trusting us with the heart of your pride and joy. We can’t wait to see it back on the dyno.
