A & A Manufacturing

Topline Automotive was established in 1973 with its primary business centering on the remanufacture of engines, cylinder heads, and crankshafts for the then very popular Volkswagen. During these formative years, as the popularity of the import car increased in the United States, especially Japanese models, Topline expanded its product line to include a wider range of engines, components, and ultimately engine parts for this growing market. As additional models and applications were added to the line, Topline used their comprehensive working knowledge and expertise in engine remanufacturing to consolidate and rationalize engine part numbers to fit more than one application. This new concept helped make Topline the leader it is today in the automotive aftermarket. In 1995, through a joint venture of American and Argentine capital a foundry was built in the industrial park of the city of Rafaela, in the north central province of Santa Fe, Argentina. From its inception Topline Engineering Argentina held as its primary goal the production of aluminum cylinder heads for diesel internal combustion engines. By 1996, after development, we successfully achieved our production goals and attained our first overseas sales. Having solidified our skills and know-how after these initial experiences, we decided seriously to tackle the ever growing demands of the cylinder-head and oil pump market. To this end, we began to develop new models of cylinder heads, oil pumps and timing covers. In early 1999, Topline Engineering Argentina attained an important international goal when TUV Rehinland certified our quality control system under their ISO 9001 standards. In order to maintain certification under such standards, our company will undergo periodic inspections to ensure the continuation of high quality control. This achievement has encouraged us to work toward certification under the QS 9000 norms.

Quality Tool and Stamping was founded in 1957 as a tool and die shop. Over time, the founder, Frank Kuznar, acquired stamping presses to try out the dies he was building. With these new capabilities, the company gradually began running production parts for its customers. Franks two sons, Ed and Dan Kuznar, joined the company in the 1960s and today actively direct QTS day-to-day operations. Several key leadership roles are now held by third generation family members. Nearly 50 years after its founding, QTS has more than 100 employees and manufactures top-quality metal parts for over one hundred companies located throughout the US.
