ERGMA

Post by joel gopan »

A lot of engines and gearboxes were rebuilt by them with varying quality.They sometimes stuffed worn out parts right back in. Their engines are questionable at best. You will find parts incorrectly installes, especially valve springs, and more than one style piston in same engine. They sometimes installed non US Manufactured Pistons that had a 4th ring on the skirt. I brought back one CCKW 270 Engine by ERGMA that was done in Tunisia.

Some of the best quality rebuild work I have seen was done in Belgium and Norway.
