Review №1

My Dads mechanic sent Dodge 4.7 heads to them for full valve job, and he thought, new valve seats. Mechanic wanted the best job done. Plus, these heads are notorious for dropping seats which any skilled machinist/mechanic would know this.Now, only 9 months later, less than 5,000 miles, head drops a seat, and damages piston. $950 down the drain to start.WAM refused to do anything. Nothing.So, I take heads to a skilled machine shop in Santee.Not only were the valve seats not replaced, but the one that dropped, you see where WAM peened it half azz. All new seats, redo WAMs work is $750.Dads rental car 3 weeks probably $600.Mechanics labor to R&R heads undetermined.Costs are adding up quickly due to WAMs shoddy work.Will file complaint with BAR, then small claims.WAM could have done the right thing and fixed in house for low cost but again, refused to do anything.Dads mechanic (long time friend of mine) has stopped sending work to WAM, and Im passing the word on to my extensive list of friends in the industry of this experience.

Had my heads cleaned, resurfaced and pressure tested. They came back looking like new. Ive also had a few Diesel heads resurfaced and other work done by them. Highly recommend them and their work.Vanessa always called before doing any additional work to make sure I was ok with the extra cost for the work being done.Their price is very competitive havent found a better shop around!

Jerry and the crew at WAM do great work I have used them for several builds including a few street car builds that ran in the 11s in the quarter mile, and a few really odd jobs that I thought they wouldnt even take on. They also do a lot of work for big dealerships like some of the Mossy Group. I trust them for all my small and large jobs.

This place is like the last level of scyrom. The people that work here are nothing but pure knowledge, skills and experience. And they give you a year warranty if you buy an engine from them!!!

These guys at WAM have done great work for me on several projects. They even replaced the lower control arm bushings for a C-Body MOPAR front end I rebuilt. Have a couple more engine projects in the wings, I will back to WAM for their expert help.

Just had to get one valve reseated. Minuscule job, but they were very nice about it and got the job done same day. Very pleased, and will be coming back if I need any other machine work.

WAM rebuilt a 390 for my 1970 F250. I started driving it in late October 2016. The engine lost compression in the sixth cylinder in May 2018. I drove it about 5,000 miles during that time. It also has water in the oil. When I called them about it they said that the one year warranty is expired. They would not fix it. My mechanic was working on another car whos engine was rebuilt by WAM. That engine also needed to be redone. I have a new mechanic and he has had bad experiences with WAM and so has the guy who rebuilds engines for him. My old mechanic has used WAM many times and says that they used to be good, but now some employees have changed and their work is no good any more. My new mechanic would not use them either.
