Joe's Engine Shop

"Took my Toyota 4Runner cylinder head to be machined at a another shop the initial Inspection was $230 they stated it would cost me $1,100 to machine it on top of the $230 I already owned them. For that price I could purchase a new one for $700 though it would be an after market replacement. Decided to go to Dan's engine shop in Concord on a recommendation and the machined the head for $550. Got me back on the road for less than half the price and got it done in 3 days. Super knowledgeable and friendly. You can't find honest people anymore, but in this shop you can! Thank you!"

"Clay is a great Engine rebuilder. He does all the internal engine work for us."

"Had my M54 head resurfaced w/ a valve job. Honest and fast has been running great after install! I had a timing issue when I installed it and wondered if I bent a valve... I brought it back for a check and they didn't charge me! Hard to find a shop like this these days! Thanks again guys!"

"What can I say about this shop and Clay, the owner? To back up a little I’ve been looking for someone to do the machine work on my 1970 z28 engine. I had talked to several other shops that were both astronomical in price and couldn’t give me a solid timeline for completing the work. One even argued with me as to what work I wanted done! I went to Joe’s engine shop and talked to clay (the owner). He’s friendly, Easy going, has all the proper equipment to build a high quality racing motor, and was perfectly fine with the planned machine work. His price was significantly cheaper than the other guys and said drop it off in two weeks and see you a few weeks later. I had to scramble to get stuff there when he wanted it and he was quick to get some shop guys to help carry everything in. As promised, everything was done exactly to the date he committed to. He even called a few days ahead to let me know that he was on track. Also called me a week earlier to discuss the balancing procedure to ensure we were both on the same page (we were). In the end the work quality was superb! Clean, neat, obvious attention to detail as well as finished on time and at his estimated price. If you want quality machine or engine work, you won’t find anyone better!"

"Wow, the service here is incredible! Now I know nothing of engines, my husband was working on our boat engine and I was tasked with picking up some parts from Joes engine shop. The guy at the front desk was amazing, he was helpful and extremely flexible with my requests. He answered all questions and even helped weeks later when we called with an issue. I will never go to another shop, keep up the good work guys!! Thanks a ton!"
