History | Tradition
Kansas City, Missouri. Our long tradition relating to engines started in 1936 when Sterling “Bearing” began operations reconditioning babbitted connecting rods. As times and technology changed the company shifted production from connecting rods to crankshaft remanufacturing. In the early ‘70’s Sterling began distributing parts and in 1975 introduced one of the first engine kits in the USA, BLOCKMASTER.
Sterling continued to operate a full-service machine shop and production crankshaft plant until 1994 when the company shifted all its resources to distributing engine parts and remanufactured engine components. In July of 1999 we opened a branch warehouse, Sterling Engine Parts, in Minneapolis. In May, 2009 we acquired a well-known engine parts specialist warehouse in Worcester, MA: New England Engine and Parts Warehouse.

Big Engine Parts Inventory
We stock engine parts. We don’t get side-tracked stocking bug shields or running boards. With three locations and a sophisticated computer system that projects demand and tracks lost sales, we have the parts or engine kit you need for domestic, import, heavy-duty, agricultural or industrial applications. And if we don’t have the part on hand, we can get it.
