Metro engine is owned and operated bu the finest engine machinist in the state of mn! Dave is incredibly intellectual and has a level of knowledge regarding engines that is our genius. Dave is very helpful and will always know where to get the special part you need or whom you need to go seeπHe is super busy so patience for service is advised, however you will not be disappointed with the result!
Had Dave go through the head on my 91 Mazda Miata. After evaluating the head he thoroughly described what he found and recommended a course of action. This included recognizing that the head had been machined before and incorrectly assembled. Totally trustworthy and provided the replaced parts for inspection. I wouldnt hesitate to bring him other work.It is also clear from his shop that others feel the same way. Many heads waiting to be picked up and others waiting to be repaired.
Give this guy your business. He worked on some LS3 heads for my supercharged G8 build. Super intelligent guy that knows his stuff, and probably undercharges for his quality of work.
Had a 3sgte 4 cyl. Bored/Decked and had the cylinder head resurfaced. Very knowledgeable! They got it done in a timely manner as other shops were months out on work. Price wasnt bad and everything looks great will be coming back for any future work!
These fellows helped me out with my Honda Odyssey heads after a broken timing belt. They were tolerant of my newbie questions and price seemed reasonable. Repairs were completed on time. Everything went back together as it was supposed to and moms van is running like a hot damn.
Great place to get your motor machined. I got a pressure test on my 6.0 power stroke heads along with the valves checked...Fair and honest estimates, impressive turn around. Would reccomend this place all day any day. Thank you
Very knowledgeable, highly recommend
Mr. Dave is an absolute professional. I have sent in 3 of Evo X 4b11 engine heads and Iβm very pleased with his work. This is the only place Iβll go for any engine work. Huge thumps up!
Good price, went above and beyond for me
Dave really knows his stuff. Always been very helpful to me for all my questions. Hes also very reasonably priced and has a good turnaround time.
Dave is great guy;talks a lot,but knows most of the tricks an experienced machinist EARNS that are not in any of the books. I have had machine work done by Dave, and it fits correctly. his pricing is competitive. Even if the cost is a little more,it is worth it because you only have to assemble the unit once.Thats what makes his an excellent machine shop.
Metro Engine has machined two blocks and four heads for my Subarus. The quality of work is unbeatable. There is plenty of other Subaru enthusiasts that have experience with them as well, and I have yet to hear of any complaints of the work done. Im glad I found a shop I can trust!
I received prompt service with lots of helpful advice. I dropped off a cylinder head to get machined and pressure tested. The Metro Engine crew got things nice and flat and installed the new crank seal for me and removed a stuck exhaust stud. I also received helpful tips for reinstall (Im a DIY mechanic working on my first head gasket replacement). Great work at a great price. Add this to your list for machine shop needs.
Called ahead and He was able to machine my exhaust manifold the same day for my big block. Great work.
I have made this My preferred shop for machining I am really looking forward to seeing my 500ci Cadillac motor get done, previously I just had 4cyl engine work done
Dropped off a pair of 2006 Subaru 2.5i heads to get rebuilt following a broken timing belt. Dave had the experience and knew the tricks to make sure I ended up with a pair of heads that worked 100%. He took the time to explain the common issues and the solutions he implements to fix them. Next time I need ANY engine work performed, its going to Metro Engine Service.
Dave is an expert in his field. We send all of our shops machining work to him. He stands behind everything and is a fantastic resource.
Fast & affordable
Great attention to detail. Your engine doesnt leave his shop unless its perfect.
Incredible attention to detail and superb quality of work by veteran machinist and wizard of metal Dave and his crew.
I have been working with this company for a number of years now and thought it would time to give a good and bad review.dave is the owner and machinist on site and has been for many years. he is the type of person that will never let a job out of the door unless it is 100% and up to his code of professionalism (which is way above any other shop i have used). he is only one man however so the time that things take is a little more than his competators, however it is well worth the wait. i have not had a chance to test his skills on older engines like 1970s and older, but there is quite a few that i always see him working on. if you want a shop that will do your subaru, honda, toyota, mazda, or any other import, this is the place!
Awesome place fast reliable service.
Very knowledgeable staff.
Does quality machine work!!
Great guys. There is a master who speaks Russian. All told about the repair of my car and the reasonableness of one or a lot of repairs. Recommend.
