Engineered for Serious Power

Dart Machinery is a leading name in high‑performance engine components, trusted by builders who need stronger, more capable foundations than OEM platforms can offer. Their lineup of aftermarket engine blocks, cylinder heads, and intake manifolds is engineered for serious power, making Dart a top choice for LS, Chevy, Ford, Hemi, and modern performance applications. At Blenco, we stock a curated selection of Dart products designed to support reliable horsepower for both street builds and competitive racing engines.

Why we work with dart

When your LM7 or old 454 no longer can deliver what you need, Dart has the aftermarket blocks that take your build to the next level. Their components offer the strength, precision, and reliability that stock platforms simply can’t match.

We’ve worked with Dart since 2008, and over the years we’ve built and supplied countless engines using Big M blocks, LS Next platforms, and more. That long history has given us a deep understanding of their products, how they’re built, how they perform, and why they consistently deliver results for serious engine builders.

Dart Machinery: Race-Proven Engine Components for Street and Strip

Founded in a two‑car garage in Oak Park, Michigan in 1981, Dart Machinery grew directly out of hands‑on NHRA Pro Stock racing experience. Their engines went on to claim multiple world championships and dozens of national event wins, and that competitive heritage still shapes every component they produce today.

Dart’s early aluminum Hemi cylinder heads helped push Top Fuel and Funny Car racing past the 300 mph barrier, setting new standards for airflow and durability. As their lineup expanded, Dart became a trusted name for Big Block and Small Block Chevy V8s, Small Block Ford, modern muscle, and sport compact applications. Their spread‑port Big Chief heads continue to be a benchmark in classes ranging from Pro Street to Pro Mod.

In‑House Engineering Without Compromise

What truly sets Dart apart is their commitment to complete in‑house production. All development, machining, and assembly takes place in their own facility, supported by advanced CNC equipment, a full engine dyno, and Dart’s proprietary Speed Flow wet‑flow bench technology. This ensures every block, head, and manifold meets the same race‑proven standards.
