Lohen MINI N18 Crate Forged Engine Build - Config 1
About Lohen Crate Engines
Lohen has used experience and knowledge of the MINI N18 engine to produce a remanufactured performance Crate Engine that strengthens the areas we see as common failure points from our tuning experience. The Lohen N18 Crate Engine is suitable for the MINI Cooper S 2010 - 2014 or MINI JCW 2012 – 2015 and is supplied on an exchange basis.
All engines are re-built in-house by Lohen to OEM or higher specification from donor units that have been checked for tolerances and overall condition. Cylinder bores are checked for ovality and are either honed or bored-and-honed for the right size piston to the correct tolerance. Cranks are checked for size, wear, and damage before they are re-used and, where appropriate.
The Lohen N18 Configuration 1 forged engine uses forged pistons and connecting rods to strengthen the bottom end of the engine. The N18 short block is assembled using new piston rings, Mahle Motorsport bearings throughout as well as ARP bolt and stud kits.
The cylinder heads are checked for straightness, then pressure tested as well as having the cam tolerances checked. The cylinder head in the Configuration 1 N18 engine is reassembled with a new stock valvetrain
All re-usable engine components are thoroughly cleaned and inspected and all engines are re-assembled using brand new gaskets, seals, and chains.
Please note - Lohen Crate Engines are supplied as timed-up bare units with a sump, oil pump, and rocker cover. All other bolt-on ancillaries are not included. The engines are therefore shipped dry and require final assembly and fluids prior to installation and starting.
If required, Lohen can supply a fully built engine for an additional charge. We also offer professional in-house installation and running in service at our workshop.
Optional Extras
Crank Shaft Balancing
Balancing of the crankshaft is important when building a performance engine. Weight out of balance from the centre point has a direct relationship to engine speed so, for those pushing the MINI engine harder, it is a vital the crankshaft is balanced to improve durability of the engine and, in particular, engine bearings, reducing engine vibration and improving performance.
Surcharge
Exchange unit
Lohen will apply a surcharge to every engine sold unless a donor unit is supplied and it is deemed to be in re-buildable condition.
