You can trust this guy with any of your engine work, he knows what he's doing. yes he's usually a one-man band, and does not have time to coach you through what you want or need done, he doesn't have patience because he's to busy to talk on the phone about what you don't know you need. this is the only place I would trust with any of my machine work or engine work

I have been taking work there for many decades. Mark is one of the most knowledgeable machinist in the city of Wichita and the state of Kansas. I hope he is teaching somebody his skills because he’s getting close to retirement age. I also appreciate his honesty. He doesn’t mince any words.

Another fine example of why these old shops are going out of business..... Sad to see but when you can't do the basic of basic you don't deserve to be around any longer.

Called to get an idea about how to go about possibly rebuilding my engine and this guy obviously knows little to nothing about engine swaps tried to tell me I couldn't swap out a 350 rocket with a 403 when it's basically the same block and not to mention he's rude as hell and basically told me he didn't have time to be on the phone with me as if he doesn't need new customers so I definitely don't recommend even attempting to deal with this guy

Came in there to ask to inquire about services and was about the most unpleasant man I’ve ever encountered. Extremely off putting. He obviously works at a slow pace bc just like so many other have said, he had no interest in taking the job. Not sure if it’s because he can’t handle his current work load or he’s incompetent. Either way, I would rather pluck my eyes out rather than talk to that man again.

Mark machined an old Kohler 1cylinder engine for me a while back. It was a job well done. The engine runs great. I will be returning to get work done on and buy parts for a 383 soon.

I had two experiences trying to work with this company. First I was calling shops attempting to find the best options for a possibly cracked/warped head. He refused to answer any questions I had as a somebody without detailed knowledge of the inner workings of cars. I asked him which shops he preferred to work with but this guy must not be able to keep working relationships with shops because of his attitude. He said speak with him when you just have the part to machine. I spoke with him a second time today now that I worked with a mechanic to get the head disassembled from the engine. I have it out and ready to work on but he had the same attitude issues just trying to get pricing on verifying the head is still in spec and not warped or cracked. If its this hard just getting him to work on something imagine if you actually had an issue after having him do some work.

It's all in the details! Meticulous and Precision are two that come to mind each time I step into their shop! Motorcycles and ATVs need to know this is the shop for your top-end rebuild!!

Mark machined and rebuilt my 327 sbc. I was looking for a reliable “hot street” setup (oxymoron right?). He advised me on cam selection and pistons. This engine has never missed a beat. I have driven the car cross-country in the Hotrod power tour. I always have confidence the motor will get me where I want to go. Exactly what I was looking for.

Mark went through a set of Ford FE heads for me. Valve job, valve guides, hardened seats, and converted from umbrella to positive seals. Very fast, very high quality work. This is one of the most competent automotive machine shops in the region. With that said, Mark is no-nonsense, and he's going to do it the right way no matter what. So be prepared to just listen...hard for most to do these days...especially racers. I wish I could freeze this shop in time forever. Shops like this built America.

Only place I've found in Wichita that can bore a motorcycle cylinder. Fair price and very quick turnaround.

Extremely poor customer service. As stated by others, I just got lectured. Old guy on the phone had an attitude. He was not even give me an estimate over the phone.. not even a price per hour. Will not do business with him ever. I am even confused on how it has three stars, surprised it doesn't have less.
