OM6 Performance LLC · Est. 2023 Hertford, North Carolina

Mercedes-Benz diesel engines built by hand.

“OM6 — Swap the world.”

Custom complete builds, welded-bellhousing transmissions, our own fuel-injection pumps, and the parts the platform actually needs. Made for the people keeping the OM6 scene alive.

Chapter 01

What we build.

Three product lines anchor the shop. Everything else exists to support them — the gaskets, chains, tools, and small parts that keep the OM6 platform on the road.

Chapter 02

From the bench.

“We are striving to keep prices as low as possible to keep the scene progressing forward — affordable parts and the best engine builds.”

Every job moves through the same shop, the same hands. Builds are spec’d to the truck they are going into, not to a SKU sheet. If you have a target — daily, overland, race, restoration — we’ll quote the engine, the trans, and the pump together so the package actually fits.

Messages get answered during and after hours. We are the people you wish your last builder had been.

Chapter 04

OM6 — swap the world.

USMC vet–owned, in North East North Carolina. OM6 Performance and its business partners are going to change the scene.

Founded in 2023 to keep the OM6 platform moving — affordable parts and engine builds done right, out of a single owner-operated shop. Four years in the Marine Corps as a Heavy Machine Gunner. Time after that in law enforcement. A father of three girls. The shop runs on the same discipline: get the job done, do it properly, answer the message.
