ALP RACING ENGINES

"Vintage Triumph Pre Unit"

Vintage Pre Unit Triumph Engines

Our high performance Pre-Unit Triumph engines are ​built ​for racing purposes. We build specific engines for specific Land Speed Racing classes. These are the most powerful LSR engines ever built on a Triumph pre-unit platform.​

These engines can come with our Land Speed​ Racing​ frame and all the ​required components to achieve what you are aiming for.  Our Triumph pre unit construction

frame is designed according to our high performance engines and are a big part of our success.

 

Parallel twin British Motorcycles are known for vibration, especially the vintage pre unit Triumph rigid frame. After many race and test runs we've figured out the best frame geometry and the perfect ​engine ​balance factor. 

All our crankshafts are specifically balanced  to our standards according to the frames they will be used in.​

The smooth revving Triumph pre unit engine is key to efficient performance. The results speak for themselves!
