When a Buick engine fails, you need a solution that’s reliable, affordable, and fast. That’s where Gearhead Engines comes in. Our remanufactured Buick engines are built to OEM specs (and often improved to address known issues), backed by strong warranty coverage, and shipped nationwide—so you can get back behind the wheel with confidence.
Why Choose a Remanufactured Buick Engine?
-
Built to OEM standards: Every long block is torn down, cleaned, inspected, and precision-machined. Wear items are replaced; critical tolerances are restored.
-
Real-world upgrades: Common failure points are addressed during remanufacturing to improve longevity versus a simple “rebuild.”
-
Strong warranty coverage: Peace of mind for you (and your installer).
-
Nationwide availability: Free shipping on most engines, quick lead times, and clear core-return instructions.
