2025 Year in Review.
 

2025 was a year built for growth, after the sad loss of our long term friend and colleague, we had to set about the hard task of finding a "replacement", Someone to join and grow our team, but someone we wanted to fit the team like family. 
We found it hard to pick up the pieces but after years of him building up the machine shop it would be very disrespectful to have let it suffer. We appreciate the patience shown by those whose builds were affected and the support offered.

​

Early in 2025 we found the perfect fit for our team, someone who had been around this era of engine for most of their adult life and someone who was eager to spend their time building these engines and take charge of the engine build side of things. Along side this, someone who has a keen eye for detail and passion for perfection. It was just a matter of timing to get him into our team. 

​

Throughout 2025 John has been helping in his spare time, getting to know the products, the range and the suppliers and in November we were happy to welcome him on board. 

​

With John running the build shop, we now have 2 dedicated machinists and a full time engine builder, this is a huge step for us and will see short engines and complete engines being put on the shelf along side faster turn around times on customer units which has been a goal of ours for sometime. 

​

John joining our team has also brought a wealth of Ford knowledge, You will see a large range of Ford Crossflow and Pinto package added to the range, these will follow the same stages as the A and B Series, with Stock, Stage 2, Stage 3, Track and Race options available. 

​

Working with the Trade.

​

In 2025 we saw an increase in trade orders, we plan to engage more with our trade clients. The idea behind this is simple, we are a small team and dealing with several specialist outlets takes considerably less time than dealing with 100’s of individual clients. This means that we can devote more time to our machining and builds with regular orders from trade, which in turn brings the lead times down. On the other side of this, it also means that there is a system of restoration companies with engines on the shelf allowing them to turn their work around without the long lead time and we can prepare their next engines as soon as they ear mark the stock items for use. 

​

Since 2024, we have managed to partner up with some of the worlds leading Classic Car specialists, offering packages from standard road through to fast road and track options along with machined components for them to hold on the shelf. This means that we can start to divert customers to a specialist more local to them for set pacakges, which will also give them a local support system for everything from installation, components and servicing. With outlets now set up in the USA and UK we are looking for opportunities in Europe. These changes have meant that we have strong growth opportunities moving forward with increased capacity, quicker turn around times and a wider range of services. Along side these big changes we have also been extremely busy doing what we do best, building Road, Performance Road and Race engines. We have surpassed 900 builds on our all time charts now with the next big milestone being the 1000 mark, that in itself is something we are very proud of. 2025 also saw us expand our race activities with more than 20 race engines heading out into several classic race championships globally. We have seen our engines pick up overall race wins and podium finishes, drivers beating their previous records and great reliability.

​

Festive Annual Leave.
 

Christmas has finally come around, it is our favourite time of year where we get to close our doors and see our families. We do not close our doors throughout the year and work exceptionally hard to try and meet all of the demands put on our machine shop and build shop. As the year draws to an end we always like to write a year review, to share with you all the highs and sometimes the lows that come with it. 2025 has been an incredible year, we have made some great new friends along the way.

With 2026 shaping up to be the biggest and best year for MCCS the machine shop shop and office staff are going to enjoy some much needed time with their young families. Our office and machine shop will be closed from 19th December - 12th January. Our build shop will be operational throughout but on reduced hours, putting your engines through. You can reach us throughout the festive break at mccs.engineering@gmail.com and your emails will get picked up and responded to as quickly as possible.

Thank you to those who have joined us on this incredible journey through 2025 and already signed up for Road or Race engines for 2026. We have lots of exciting projects going through build at the moment. You will see lots of MCCS engines on the circuits and hitting the hills in 26!

FESTIVE OFFER

Last year, We looked at the demands for our engines and the split between Trade, Race and Private customer builds. In a typical year we build approx 60 road engines and then Race units on top. Last year we released 20 build slots over the festive period, this was increased in the summer with a few more released. This year, we are again going to be releasing a fixed amount of engine build slots for private customers for the year. With are thinking that with our now full time engine builder we can look to release 30 build slots,  We will offer these on the following terms:

• If you would like to place an order for a built up engine with a 12 month lead time (up to 12 months), we will offer you a 10% discount on the current price if ordered and deposit paid before 13th January when we return.

• If you require an engine on a 6 month lead time (standard turnaround) then this can be ordered at the price shown on the website.

​

Please contact us at mccs.engineering@gmail.com if you would like to discuss any engine options. The 30 build slots will be taken on a first come first served basis. If capacity allows we may review during the year.
