Engine Performance Additive Specification Example for Delivery Vans: Budget Line
Engine Performance Additive Specification Example for Delivery Vans: Budget Line
This is a worked specification for engine performance additive in a budget line programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The budget line version exists because the duty cycle on delivery vans is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually warranty claims traced back to a single lot.

Example specification
| Item | Engine Performance Additive |
|---|---|
| Application | Delivery Vans |
| Version | Budget Line |
| Base material | Anodised Aluminium |
| Controlled dimensions | 3 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.05 mm |
| Finish | zinc plated |
| MOQ | 2,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 14 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | TUV |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Anodised Aluminium, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.

Processes involved
- anodising
- CNC machining
- ultrasonic cleaning
- assembly line testing
- rubber vulcanisation
- heat treatment
Where this example applies
Programmes that run budget line most often specify this build for delivery vans. Related applications include scooter fleets, construction equipment, courier fleets, camper conversions, agricultural trailers.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the TUV-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 14 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
Can you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
