Honestly, I'm really surprised to see any bad reviews on here. I'm an average at-home DIY gear head, so I was expecting a typical garage where the dudes (and ladies) working there think that they know better. Not Advanced Cylinder Heads!! I am rebuilding the cylinder head on my 2012 VW Jetta after a timing belt failure. When I was attempting to install the camshaft, one of the bearing cap threads broke in half with the nut stuck in there. I was thinking I was going to have to have the head re-machined or something, but nope. Turns out it was a pretty easy fix! I didn't catch the guy's name who helped me, but he was awesome. He stopped doing what he was doing, and not only took the time to pull the broken thread, he showed me how to do it myself. Again, to a DIYer like myself, having someone kind enough to pass down any knowledge is just a gift. Everyone there was super nice. Just about every employee I saw asked if I had been helped. 10/10 highly recommend using this place for any engine repairs.Services: Engine repair

So my review as requested by the owner, was going to do my simple press for free in exchange for a good review. I won't go there again. Said a piece was bent. It was. It was a dust shield. Didn't press it on. I would have paid the 90$ hourly rate for 5 seconds of work. Wasn't asked. If i bring a dealer's part then we're good. 28 year old truck. The dealer offers no part for this. So aftermarket it is. I purchased a 12" piece of bar i had to modify and widen just a bit to use as a slide hammer. 13$ truck drives fine with the aftermarket part.

Old engines are tough, most guys today weren't even alive when the motor I'm having done was made. After some confusion the owner contacted me personally and has been absolutely professional and helpful to help me get this done right. Above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we get this 52 year old Big Block done right. They say "you get what you pay for" and that is exactly right, this machine shop is worth doing business with and worth the price. Thank YouService: Engine repair

WORSE RIP OFF SHOP!!! DON'T GO! Over priced work done incorrectly,go across the street for a real mechanics who won't scr*w you. I asked for bearings to be pressed and he tried to charge me $600. So I went to a different shop for the same work to be done and was charged only $20. at the other shop.

Wasted so much time here. Brought in my car for a broken coolant flange bolt, and was told it would be scheduled a week in advance. However, since they understood this was my one and only car, they’d try to fix as fast as possible. Fine, I thought maybe they are just a little backed up, I can understand assuming they are hopefully a good shop that sees many customers. Next week comes around I have not gotten any response so I call Friday afternoon. Was told they have not touched the car saying, "some things apparently came up". Okay, things happen, I understand, getting a little irked but I can wait another week. 3rd week comes and they look at the car Wednesday. Got a call Friday the same week that apparently "four of their master mechanics" could not figure out how to fix my issue unless they removed the head of the block, and I was basically told to sell or part out my car and buy another one. Undeniably I was shocked when I heard this, literally one broken bolt required a complete overhaul of the engine in their eyes. Nice way to start off the weekend, right?Finally towed the car back to my apartment complex Monday (4th week now). I wasn't about to drop several grand on a new car or head removal on a perfectly fine car and decided I'd tackle this myself, so ordered a bolt extractor that came Wednesday; and what do you know? I somehow removed the bolt in 30 minutes and bleed my coolant in a 1 hour, well before the sun begun to set that evening, shocking! Not sure how I as a college student fixed a problem literally in the parking of lot of my apartment complex (with Harbor Freight tools no less, LOL), that “four master mechanics” with a plethora of equipment and lifts couldn't, either sheer incompetence or a lack of care at all. Regardless, car has been driving fine thus far after my own exploits, and no, I don’t plan on parting it out.As a car enthusiast I tend to do my own maintenance on my car, I only happened to bring it to this shop because I was backed up with other activities with school and work. A local mechanic that welded up my exhaust referred me to this shop, stating they would be able to take care of it no problem since they are familiar with dealing with engine blocks. I don't know how they are as machine shop, but my experience with their mechanic side was unbelievably poor and I wasted weeks of my time and my money on Uber rides just get to work and school on time. Like, imagine if a college student was in my position who did not know how to work on cars, they’d basically be SOL if they took the advice this shop gave.

Hands down the best machine shop in the south. Not only did they do a great job on my GTR, but I also couldn't resist having them work magic on my Toyota Supra cylinder head. We tend to spend a bit of time and $ on our projects, so be sure to get the best in quality and service with state-of-the-art precision. The team over at Advance love what they do and most importantly are great people. Much respect and shout out to the advance cylinder head family.Thank you.

I drove into ACH with a screw in my tire and the air leaking out quickly. I had to be back at the office for a meeting, and the guys at Advanced Cylinder Heads took amazing care of me and my car. I could not recommend this shop more!! They fit me in to their busy day, offered me water, WIFI and fixed my tire within half an hour. This is the type of service that deserves 10 stars. Very thankful for Advanced Cylinder Heads!

Chris and the team over at Advanced Cylinder Heads are the real deal! I had a valve cover bolt snap into the cylinder head and they were able to extract it and retap it with new threads as if nothing ever happened. Everything went back together smoothly after repair. They are extremely prompt and have excellent customer service. Thanks again guys for getting my 2j back on the road! Will be returning for future projects!Service: Engine repair

I drove down from chicago to Orlando with my family, and my engine over heated and ruined my cylinder heads. With one day to spare before going back to chicago, Donnie the manager went above and beyond and took in my head's resurfaced and rebuilt them within 6 hrs. I was extremely grateful for his support, service and exceptional professionalism. Despite being extremely busy with other work Donnie understood my situation and took care of me. I stayed up all night putting everything together but my family and I were able to get back on the road and make it back to chicago! For that I am extremely grateful, I would definitely recommend Advanced Cylinder Heads llc to local and out of state customers.Service: Engine repair

I used a set if their fully cnc’d 799 LS heads and the car went from a best of 11.78 to an 11.21 first time out with the new heads. Great service and the heads work just as good as they look!Service: Motor building

These guys are awesome! They resurfaced my tractor flywheel, and cut new pins for the pressure plate mounting. It saved me over 500 dollars, as the pins are not available for the tractor from the manufacturer. They took a very rusted, nasty looking flywheel, and made it look like new. Really nice guys, as well. The shop is really nice and clean. You can tell that they really take pride in it. I’ve definitely found my machine shop for all my future needs!Service: Clutches & transmissions service & repair

I am very grateful for this company. After many chances with other mechanic shops this is the best one I have ever been too. This is my second time visiting and using this mechanic shop. My first visit was awesome. Chris helped me with multiple issues that arose with the diagnostic of my car and has been over a year now and no more issues since. Today I went back to this shop from my previous experience and the manager Jimmy helped me. I was experience electrical issues. Turns out I need of a new battery after buying one 5 days ago from Walmart. Jimmy was very professional and honest with what was wrong with the car and gave me the best advice on how to solve the issue. He ordered me a new battery and also helped according I would definitely recommend this company if you are looking for honest, reliable, and knowledgeable mechanics. Also a gentleman name mike was very informative and helpful with putting the old battery into my car so I could take back to Walmart. My car was taking in today and was out by the end of the day too. Very quick and got the job done efficiently. Thank you so much for everything!! I definitely will be back!Services: Engine repair
