Carquest Auto Parts

Their pricing was pretty reasonable for what they were doing.  They perform really good work and so far all the machines I have sent to them have always come back spot on within a thousandth of an inch or tighter.  Their part store which is located in the front is pretty good but they are a little pricey.  I can get anything there and their staff is knowledgeable.  The real gem of their business is their machine shop which is located at the back which is a pretty good one.  The person who owns it is named Jodi and he performs excellent work for a very reasonable price.  He will take the time to talk to me about what my application is and discuss where I want to go with the particular build.  He has a lot of knowledge which he can help me with.  He has been correct for the last four engine builds I used him for.  If I have a neutral request or take him something odd he is fine with it since he is skilled to perform it.  If I want to dissemble and do the tear down myself for cost control measures and then take it to him he is totally helping to that.  He will tell me upfront if there is something particular about an engine which is more difficult or if it costs more before I spend the money.  He does not make stuff up and does not say anything which makes me suspect.  He answers his own phone, deals with the customers himself and is very good at handling his two machinists.  They are a busy shop but they do a really good job.  They are however slow at performing their work.  I would use them again in the future.
