At Melton Industries we remanufacture most 2-cyle Detroit Diesel engine models for wholesale and commercial end users, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), US Military branches, and aftermarket retailers.

We aim to provide the highest level of service for Detroit Diesel remanufactured engines that meet or exceed original OEM specifications.

Melton Industries’ Detroit Diesel engines are not rebuilt, they are 100% remanufactured, which means that all components are returned to the latest OEM specifications. This is a process that returns each engine unit to a zero-hour condition, at a significant savings over purchasing new equipment.

Our remanufacturing process is measured through life-cycle product performance, and our products have earned a reputation for resilience. This appropriately attests to our ever improving methods. Each engine unit is rigorously dynamometer tested to either match or surpass official Detroit Diesel standards, for verification of workmanship, performance, and sustainability. Whenever available; existing performance upgrades and technical improvements are incorporated into the remanufactured unit. Branded paint and finish outfits are available, plus external, in-house arrangement of completed products, with 7-45 day turn times.
