Great local engine shop, these guys know what they are doing. As long as you know what you want done, they've got the equipment and will get it done.Very knowledgeable crew. When I need an engine brought back to specs, they'll be my go to.

These guys really dropped the ball on my motor. Had my block for 8+ months, no communication. picked it up, its horribly dirty, they didnt keep it properly and now every oil passage and all the lifter bores are covered in rust, inside of block is covered in fuzzy rag residue block still covered in old paint and rust. complete disaster. waste of time and money will be having another shop re-do this pathetic work. Will never recommend these people for anything.Service: Motor building

I've been a mechanic in the Aurora area for about 25 years and I have dealt with Tim since I started in this field whenever I need any machine work done and have never been disappointed with the work, Tim knows what he is doing and does it well. 4 states because sometimes his turn around is a little slow, he gets backed up and is pretty much a one man operation.

I go to Tim for all my engine needs. I own a local shop and I'm lucky to find someone with the amount of knowledge he has. He does all my machine work and even gives me advice on jobs. Best engine shop around.

I wish I could recommend this shop, but I can't. When I first called Tim, he told me he could rebuild my engine in about a month. Twenty calls and 7 months later the engine was, sort of, finished. He used two different types of bolts to fasten the heads. When I asked him what was up with the mis-matched bolts, he said something about a couple of the bolts having long studs attached so he ordered two ARP bolts to replace those; huh? Why not just use all ARP bolts? I'm paying for them. Then I find out that Tim hacked the oil baffles out of the stock valve covers to get them to fit over the roller rockers. I would have expected a quality engine builder to call me and give me the option to purchase after market valve covers that would actually fit without spraying oil all over my new engine. Now I have original 1966 valve covers that are destroyed and I can't even sell them to offset the cost of aftermarket valve covers. Tim also lost my starter motor bolts. All in all, very poor quality work at a premium price. Find a different shop or buy a crate motor.

Great service, Tim the owner has been doing this for over 30 years and it shows. His knowledge and skill are unmatched. Quality work.

I had Tim the owner do some work for me. He did the job perfectly and in a short amount of time. I would recommend this shop to family and friends.
