Scholar Engines Ltd

Scholar engines were formed in September 1968 to produce modified performance road, race and rally engines. Over the years we have also gained an enviable record for producing cost effective engines for both classic and modern vehicles.

Some of the stand-out past achievements have been in the ultra competitive “Formula Ford” FF1600 class (Ford Kent and Zetec) and this continues to keep us busy with rebuilds and new build engines throughout the year.  Many leading racing drivers have used the services of Scholar during the early part of their careers - in 2002 five Formula One Grand Prix drivers were past customers of Scholar Engines.

Located in Mendlesham, Suffolk, our workshops are comprehensively equipped to carry out a vast range of in-house machining and testing operations.  This includes cylinder boring and honing under operating conditions, computerized camshaft, airflow and dynamometer testing. Our workforce has over one hundred and fifty years combined experience of working with performance and racing engines.
