Over 30 years rebuilding and machining experience, from cylinder head and flywheel resurfacing to complete engine rebuilds.
Open Mon–Fri · 8a–5p
We use the latest equipment and meticulous attention to detail to deliver top-quality results on every job that comes through the shop.
Before any machining begins, we thoroughly clean and inspect your components, removing carbon deposits, oil and grime. Each inspection follows a stringent checklist with critical data recorded for a complete prognosis of your block and/or cylinder head.
Our Berco surface grinder, equipped with PCD (Poly-Crystalline Diamond) or CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride) tooling, produces industry-leading surface finishes on any aluminum or iron cylinder head or block.
Our Winona FG5000 flywheel grinder with diamond tooling handles any car or truck single-mass flywheel, step or no step. We have it covered. Same-day turnaround guaranteed.

Reliable, high-quality service that gets the job done right. Here's what our customers have to say.
"Vincent and the team are the kindest and most knowledgeable people I've ever met in the car industry. They got me situated with some parts for my Subaru build and are great at explaining the unknowns. Would give 6 stars if I could!"
"I had my flywheel resurfaced here for an old BMW. These guys were super knowledgeable. Quick turn around (within same day) and I felt a great price."
"Wow, outstanding service and great work. I had a cylinder head for an 87 Porsche 911 that had a leaking exhaust valve. … I dropped off the head Thursday evening, just before close, got an inspection report with pictures and quote Friday, accepted Friday evening and by Wednesday the job was done - including RVJ sourced 2 valves, cleaned, replaced the valve seats, seated the valves and had the head ready for me. Excellent!"
