So, hopefully this review will be timely for someone. Two years ago I was shopping online for a rebuilt SBC, preferably a 383 stroker, and Google found EPM. I liked the specs on the website and couldnt find a comparable engine online for anywhere near the price (even a couple local machine shops quoted me more to rebuild my 350 as a 350). I placed the order and a week or so after the turnaround time had elapsed I reached out and was told I hadnt supplied the color I wanted it painted (wasnt asked on the website when ordering) and that it would be shipped in 2 days. Two days later I got shipping notification, it arrived as scheduled, and the delivery company made a really tight turn into my driveway to drop it off where I needed it. During installation I had to call Greg/EPM a couple times for info/advice and he was as helpful and nice as could be. Oh, Im pretty sure the website said it would be a 2-bolt main block but I got a 4-bolt.Cut to 18 months and 1,500 miles later and it broke a rocker arm stud. Called Greg and he offered to repair/replace the head if I sent it back (the warranty). I found a machine shop locally that was able to pull and replace/repair the rocker stud without pulling the head off so decided that was easier and worth not doing the labor to pull the head myself.Bottom line: Not fast to ship (but I knew that going in), had a rocker arm stud break that seems to have been a fluke -shrug-, customer service was always friendly and helpful, they seem to stand behind the warranty, I love how the engine sounds and how strong it is, and I still havent seen anything comparable for at least $1000 (like 35%) more online.
They stand behind there warranty, my 383 had a restriction in the oil port that feed the top end so the lifters were not getting proper oil flow. This took me about six months to figure out and by that time the valves were shot. Greg told me to pull the engine and he would have it picked up and his team would check it out. EPM completely went through and rebuilt the engine again at no cost to me. I took care of the R&R of the engine because I felt I was party to blame because I knew the rockers were not getting enough oil flow but I ran it anyway. I just had a hard time telling Greg that the oil pressure was high but looked like the top end had lack of oil flow. I feel that EPM and Greg did more than they had too to take care of the problem. Thanks Greg and the EPM team.
Had them rework a Toyota engine. Upon start up something was wrong loud noise whine. Had to pull the engine and take it back to them. They didnt cover any labor, or fluids. I got completely screwed. Read the Warranty its a joke. Its a 25 hour job to remove that engine. They refused to pay.. They installed a cheap aftermarket timing chain and gear set that caused the noise. I pointed it out when I dropped it off and handed them the correct parts from Toyota. They admitted the fault and never paid a dime
Brought in a chevy equinox engine to be remanufactured and after i got it back and had it installed (by a professional shop) it would run and drive but eventually start surging at stop lights and throw engine codes. Called Greg and let him know what was happening and he worked with the shop to fix the problem but ultimately they couldnt solve the mystery. Finally Greg had me take the car to another shop where they were able to fix the problem at no additional cost to me. Highly recommend them and would definitely use them in the future
They work on my engine and do a great job. Take some time but they do really good work. Im recommending 100%.Great job guys!
They didnt do a very good job for the money
I purchased a ramn engine block i had installed by professional service shop 4 months later the suv star having problems i took the truck back to the shop and they found the the block had pistons leaks burning oil then they took my suv to the dealership for a second nd diagnose and the dealership also found pistons were leaking and burning oil and then I end up taking the suv to a third mechanic and this third shop also found out same issues with the engine 4 week later they still have not done my engine if I dont get my engine completely done by January first I will file a law suit against epm if any other people want to joint me on the law suit
DO NOT PURCHASE AN ENGINE FROM THESE GUYS!!!!! I paid for an engine on August 6th....was promised a 25 day turn around. Kept getting the run around & a bunch bs excuses. I finally requested a refund on 10/22. Save yourself alot of time & headache & either build your own engine or purchase from a reliable builder.
This guy is a total fraud DO NOT USE HIM he took my friends ls1 5.7 and returned a cast iron small block 350 when he was asked for it back save yourself the money!!!!!!He was featured on keg news for having five bad business names and Bbb gave him a D-
They always do an excellent job..no matter what it takes. Ive been using them since 2009. Would definitely recommend them with 5 stars.
The guys take alot time but perfect job...
