Marshall's Automotive Machine Inc 16 York Street, Skowhegan, ME 04976

"Jay and the guys are the most knowledgeable in the business. They were upfront and honest about all options of my build. Top notch customer service, and the build exceeded my expectations by far. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for any type of engine stock or custom."

"For one this shop had my engine for a full year and 5 months and it was never “touched”, there was zero attempt to rebuild my engine thought I purchased every single part for the rebuild and dropped it off with my block. Now in this time and custom built 800$ part for my engine has come up missing and there is no explanation for it. In conclusion all the rumors you hear I’d listen to them."

"Brought my 2015 Ford F250 6.2 pickup to Joe at Marshall's Automotive on recommendation from Friends. Joe did a reman on the engine found out after there was also a catalytic converter issue. Joe and and his staff got me all fixed up. They are fair, and thorough and provided top notch professional quality work. I highly recommend Marshalls Automotive Machine Thanks Joe"

"Joe has been great to work with. He always seems to have time to explain and work with me. His customer service is very pleasant to work with. It has been nothing short of a terrific experience!. Keep up the great work guys! Thank you! Also, wanted to add. The engine was delivered to my shop from Marshalls. It came triple wrapped and clean as a whistle. A truly professional and great experience right to the end. Hard to find these days."

"THIS SHOP ISINT WORTH ANY STARS BUT AT LEAST ONE IS REQUIRED TO LEASE A REVIEW. I have done business with this shop twice for marine engines. The first time I received a 318 Engine with a badly scored cylinder in # 5 and the wrong timing chain unfit for marine service. The engine had to go back. The second time I purchased A 318 Reverse rotation engine. They used a modified rear main sealing method by polishing out the helix from the crankshaft as he didn’t have the correct one for reverse rotation as Chrysler marine put the helix in the crank and not the seal as done in Ford or GM based engines. This is not approved by Chrysler Marine or Felpro gasket company and was not the sealing method he explained he would use when I spoke to Joe Horton Of Marshall Machine and authorized the charge to my credit card , again the engine had to go back. After the engine was returned I found a Rocker bar on backwards , when I called Joe he said it didn’t matter. The service manual for this engine specifically states the Proper installation. After installing this engine upon initial startup it had bad blow by that is pressurizing the crankcase in spitting oil out of the dip stick sleeve and the rear main seal has a massive oil leak. The compression is well under 100 PSI exhaust port temps are 100 degrees below that of the normal running engine. The engine is useless and has to come out and worse than the bad engine I replaced . I purchased the first engine just as the new ownership had taken over in 2013 and this second engine August 2016. Marshall Machine claims his engines are bench tested before they leave his shop, That is not true. It is the consumer who is the test of these poorly rebuilt engines and it is the consumer who has to deal with all the headache afterwards. this purchase is in dispute with the credit card company and he's lying like crazy. I do not recommend this shop as the quality is below substandard and leads to major Headaches and expenses. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR , FIND A REPUTABLE SHOP THAT IS BBB AFFIALTED AND BUILDS THEM CORRECTLY. 6/12/2017 So, now after six months I have finally had chance to get this junk engine out of my boat, I have removed the rear main bearing cap to see why I had such a massive oil leak only to discover that after all the discussion and promises about how he was going to do this seal the rear main, even after taking the engine back over the seal issue to begin with I find that he completely lied to me, He used a standard rotation crankshaft and that was the cause of this massive oil leak. If you look closely at the seal you will find the helix grooves in the crankshaft are set for standard rotation engine. This guy promised me he used the correct crank! Also this engine had such poor compression I had to put a bar on the flywheel bolts to loosen the balancer bolt and flywheel bolts as the engine spun over with no resistance. HE IS A LIAR AND A SCAM ARTIST who does spray can rebuilds. I HAVE A GOOD MIND TO SUE HM FOR ALL MY EXPENCES."
