Engines

Most shops send engines out. This one doesn’t.

Changing your oil or increasing the size of your cylinders, it happens in the same building.

When an engine needs more than bolt-on parts, most repair shops ship the block or heads out and wait. At J&L the machine shop is right here: boring, pressure checks, head and rod reconditioning and piston fitting are done in house.

So one shop owns the whole job, from finding the problem to putting it back together, on anything from a straight six to a V-8.
