Turn around time was unbelievably fast. Superior craftmanship! I found a new machine shop! Five star isnt enough.

These guys drilled out some broken bolts and did multiple heli-coils on my brembos for a good price and had a quick turn around time. End result was great. Will definitely use them in the future!

I needed an engine rebuilt for a rare classic. I found an engine that had previously been machined. It had been sitting for a long time, so I took it to Action to be checked out for its quality and structural integrity. They checked my engine for cracks and quality of previous work from another shop. They advised me that the cylinders were not round, and their was taper on the crank journals. I opted for a complete rebuild, and am extremely pleased with the outcome. I now have a correct build date engine to complete a Shelby restoration.

The motor for my racecar has been to Action Machine twice now. The first was a basic rebuild and the second time the focus was maximizing performance. The most important thing you should know is that the motor RIPS. It is fast enough that other teams with the same motor have accused us of cheating; in racing that is the ultimate compliment. One thing I was also impressed by was their interest in understanding the rulebook for our particular racing series - they asked lots of questions to ensure their suggestions were legal for our car/class.A few tips if you havent worked with Action before: 1) leave lots of time on your project calendar. There isnt many shops here and Action is busy because they are great. 2) be super clear with any timeline expectations/deadlines you have up front, right when you drop your parts off 3) dont be a know it all with these guys and dont be put off by their attitude. honestly, I end up answering most of their questions with i dont understand the difference and every time I do the conversation slows down and they explain it to me really well.

I rented a garage next door to them and I bought a few spark plugs and gear oil from them for my landscaping tools. They know a lot.. I only stayed a few months and closed up.Now at home, the nearest action auto parts is completely out of my way on aurora when i live in wedgwood. I go to lake city for shopping for auto parts at other stores because action auto is out of my way.

First off, anybody who writes a review that reads No help at all really is no help at all. I mean, is this a paid troll? What does this really add? Ive now brought four cylinder heads to these guys for repair, and theyve quickly become my go-to machine shop. They repaired my VW 2.0 EOS head for $250 when a shop in Auburn quoted me $1000 for the same head. And the work they did on that head and every one Ive brought in since has been top-notch. The turnaround time has been great as well. If you go into Action on any given day, youll find dozens of heads waiting to be machined. Theres a reason these guys are swamped with orders: They know what theyre talking about and they do great work for a fair price.

Went in here for a quote on a flywheel. Guy was very laid back and upfront, even with his hands full on the phone, etc. Awesome service. Ill definitely be recommending people to go here.

Was told over the phone to come in and they could help me. Show up and there are crack heads in the parking lot and a rude guy tells me they are 180 days behind. And my best bet is to go to California. What a waist of time.

These guys surfaced a cylinder head for only $70 bucks and did a great job. The front desk guy is a little ahort with people, because he is very busy he is often strait to the point. I can appreciate his no BS attitude and his highly skilled work and attention to detail. He knew exact specs by heart about many qualification questions I asked him. Was very impressed with this machine shop! I came in today to have some cam gear bolts removed that were impossible for me, the guy worked on it for a little while, came back out and told me about the struggle to remove the bolts, but when he was done doing it, he didnt even charge me. Awesome service!
