Engine Services for Cars
Automotive engine projects can range from rebuilding an existing engine to preparing components for a custom or high performance build.
We provide engine machining, rebuilding, and building services for car engine projects based on the condition of the engine and the customer's goals.
An Engine Rebuilding project may require attention to several major components. The engine block could need cylinder machining or surface preparation, while the cylinder heads may require separate machine work.
Customers who are building specialized automotive engines can also discuss our Custom Engine Building and High Performance Engine Building capabilities. Because every engine has its own history and intended use, we take a project based approach. We want to understand the engine, its condition, the components involved, and what you want to accomplish before determining the services required.

Engine Services for Trucks
Truck engines can accumulate substantial use and may eventually require professional machining or rebuilding. Other truck projects may involve a specialized engine build or components that need individual machine shop services.
Our Cars, Trucks & Diesel Engine Services include truck engine projects requiring the specialized capabilities available at our Waxhaw shop.
Depending on the engine, this may involve Engine Rebuilding, Engine Block Machining, Engine Boring & Honing, Cylinder Head Machining & Repair, or Engine Decking & Resurfacing.
If an engine block has more substantial cylinder wear or damage, Engine Sleeving & Block Repair may be an option for suitable applications.
Rather than assuming every truck engine requires the same work, we consider the condition and needs of the individual project.
Diesel Engine Machining & Rebuilding
Diesel engines are an important part of our service range. We provide Diesel Engine Machining & Rebuilding for customers who need professional work on diesel engines and components.
A diesel rebuilding project can involve several areas of the engine. The block may require machining, cylinder preparation, sleeving, or surface work. Cylinder heads may also need professional attention.
Our broad machine shop capabilities allow customers to discuss these different requirements through one local business.
We provide Engine Block Machining, Engine Boring & Honing, Engine Sleeving & Block Repair, Engine Decking & Resurfacing, and Cylinder Head Machining & Repair for suitable diesel projects. Customers can bring us individual diesel engine components or contact us about a more involved machining and rebuilding project.
Engine Rebuilding for Automotive and Diesel Projects
Engine Rebuilding is one of our primary services and supports our work with cars, trucks, and diesel engines. The rebuilding process depends on the engine's existing condition and what is required for the particular project. Wear, mechanical damage, previous machine work, and component condition can all affect the scope of work.
This is why professional engine machining can be an important part of rebuilding. A used engine block may need Engine Boring & Honing or Engine Decking & Resurfacing. A damaged cylinder could require Engine Sleeving & Block Repair. Cylinder heads may need Cylinder Head Machining & Repair.
Our approach is to consider the engine as an individual project rather than assume that a standard list of operations applies to every rebuild.
The engine block is a major focus of many automotive, truck, and diesel engine projects. South Shop Auto Machine LLC provides Engine Block Machining for customers who need professional preparation or repair of their blocks.
Our related capabilities include Engine Boring & Honing for cylinder preparation and Engine Decking & Resurfacing for projects requiring surface machining. We also provide Engine Sleeving & Block Repair for suitable engine blocks with cylinder wear or damage requiring a more specialized approach.
These services can be completed as individual machining jobs or incorporated into larger Engine Rebuilding, Custom Engine Building, Race Engine Building, or High Performance Engine Building projects.
Engine Block Machining
Cylinder heads are another important area of our engine machine shop services.
We provide Cylinder Head Machining & Repair for car, truck, diesel, custom, race, and high performance engine projects.
Cylinder head condition can be affected by use, heat, mechanical problems, previous repairs, and other factors. The work required depends on the specific component and engine application.
Customers can bring us cylinder heads as individual components or include cylinder head work within a larger engine project.
Having both block and cylinder head machining capabilities available through the same shop can be especially useful when several major engine components require professional attention.
