Detroit Speed Engineering
<h3>Detroit Speed Engineering: American-Made Performance for Classic Muscle</h3><p><strong>Detroit Speed Engineering (DSE)</strong> was founded in 2000 and is headquartered in Mooresville, North Carolina — the heart of American motorsports country. What began in a two-car garage has grown into a 35,000-square-foot manufacturing operation with a team of over 50 engineers, fabricators, and enthusiasts united by a single goal: bringing classic American muscle cars and trucks into the modern era without sacrificing their heritage.</p><p>DSE has earned a devoted following among pro-touring builders and restoration specialists by designing parts that bolt directly onto vintage platforms — no cutting, no fabricating, no compromises. Every component is engineered in-house and manufactured in the USA using advanced processes like CNC machining, hydroforming, and precision forging. The result is a product line built to exceed late-model performance expectations while fitting the classic vehicles enthusiasts love.</p><h3>The Selecta-Speed Wiper System: A DSE Signature Innovation</h3><p>Perhaps no product better illustrates the Detroit Speed philosophy than their renowned Selecta-Speed wiper systems. Classic muscle cars and square-body trucks were not exactly known for capable wiper systems, and DSE set out to fix that. Their <a href="/1102-detroit-speed-engineering-windshield-wiper-motor-kit-10881">Windshield Wiper Motor Kits</a> are complete conversion packages that bring the convenience of a modern, multi-speed wiper system to vintage vehicles. Each kit includes a low-profile 7-speed <a href="/1102-detroit-speed-engineering-windshield-wiper-motor-8824">Windshield Wiper Motor</a> (featuring five delay settings, low speed, and high speed), a rotary switch, a CNC-machined aluminum adapter plate, and a simplified plug-and-play wiring harness — all designed to mount to the stock firewall bolt pattern without any cutting or splicing. DSE covers a wide range of GM platforms, including F-Body, A-Body, X-Body, C10 trucks, and more, as well as select Ford Mustang applications.</p><p>Complementing the wiper conversion, DSE also offers the <a href="/1102-detroit-speed-engineering-wiper-striker-19584">Wiper Striker</a>, a precision-fit component that works alongside the motor assembly to ensure clean, consistent wiper operation on classic vehicles — the kind of finishing detail that separates a true pro-touring build from a rough restoration.</p><h3>Steering, Suspension & Chassis Excellence</h3><p>DSE's engineering roots run deep in chassis and steering development. Their <a href="/1102-detroit-speed-engineering-steering-gear-box-7300">Steering Gear Box</a> offerings — including the purpose-built DSE-600 power-assist unit — are designed for classic GM muscle cars and deliver precise, responsive steering with a proper ratio for spirited driving. These boxes are completely new (never remanufactured), and DSE's power steering systems are designed to work seamlessly with their own rack-and-pinion and gear-box applications.</p><p>Body-side details matter just as much as what's under the car on a show-quality build. DSE's <a href="/1102-detroit-speed-engineering-fender-liner-12475">Fender Liner</a> components are engineered to fit classic platforms precisely, supporting clean engine bay presentation and protecting critical mechanical components — a testament to DSE's commitment to whole-vehicle quality, not just headline performance parts.</p><h3>Built for the Pro-Touring Enthusiast</h3><p>Detroit Speed Engineering products are trusted by builders, fabricators, and enthusiasts working on vehicles from Chevrolet, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile, GMC, Dodge, Ford, and many other American nameplates. Whether you're refreshing a Camaro, restomodding a C10 truck, or chasing autocross times in a first-gen Nova, DSE's catalog offers the engineering depth and American-made quality to make it happen right.</p>
