What happens here

The tour continues to the engine shop, which remains a core operation for Rahmoc. The owner mentions that he and his brother, both in their 70s, still build engines as their primary source of income. He proudly displays various engine components and discusses the evolution of engine building. The camera then moves to the parts department, a long hallway lined with shelves overflowing with older engine parts, manifolds, and other racing components, all meticulously stored. This area is a testament to the owner's long career and his habit of never discarding anything.

Goal: Explore the specialized engine building area and extensive parts inventory.
