I went to this machine shop with a small one-time project. I should have noticed the warning…read moresigns: (No estimate as to how long the job would take AND no estimate on the cost of the project). After nearly two weeks with not hearing any word from the shop, I decided to pull the project. The work they did perform was, (which wasn't 1/2 of what was expected to be done), two cuts on two pieces of pipe and ream out 4 fittings to fit on the pipe. I was assured that the ream job would fit onto the pipes. After getting home I discovered that three of the fittings would not fit at all on the pipes. In the end what it amounts to is that I paid $65.00 to have them saw off two ends of pipe.

I paid $700 to get a set of big block Chevy heads reconditioned. I then went back to have valves,…read moresprings and a couple small parts installed. A month later I get a hold of Brandon. Brandon hands me a invoice for an additional $400. Said he had to do extra machining? I had already paid for valves and springs. I looked down in the intake and exhaust runners and noticed that he had taken my new valves and installed used burned valves. Trying to get one over on me, hoping I wouldn't notice. Even when I came back and showed him, he did not give two.shi$$s. So I had a talk with the guy who did the initial head job. Reluctantly, he gave me back my $400 but only after I caught them. Use them at your own risk, and if you do, check to make sure the work was done correctly and parts are not someone else's junk.

This shop is old school alright, old school crap! STAY AWAY! go to heads up or Johns Machine shop…read more They took my heads may 29 2025 by august 19th 2025 I grew impatient. I had never heard once form them. I had called and been in the shop at least half a dozen times, and Ive always been told in a week or two. At one time I was told Brandon was on jury duty. So finally august 19th I went in and picked up my headders (he was suppose to use them for port matchuing) I then said, "have you even started yet" and Brandon told me yes, that they would be done the next day. So 2 days later I went to pick up my heads and they were hacekd up and then welded. Even the Owner Scotty Jay said WTF when I first talked to him. Some of the welds were huge and ugly bubbles. Everything including the springs and passages were painted. I assume this was for a testing application. But painting the springs? that is trash work! I don't know how long those will hold. I happen to work for a mobile welder, We use welding inspection tools let that sink in. His welds are TERRIBLE! I digress, Brandon painted every surface of the heads, including the springs and the oil passages and I don't want that crap flaking off into my brand new engine I just rebuilt. I have all sorts of machinist tools and repair many mechanical things. However, I am not setup for head work. SO, Yea I had a thousand dollars cash in my hand. Im so glad I asked him why he welded cuz he started stuttering and saying some crap about the springs were too big, I wanted to yell but I listened. He said everything is find. Don't worry. I stuffed a piece of chocolate in my mouth from their counter so I did not say anything stupid and left mumbling "Im trying to be nice" I did scream im not stupid and FUCK you from my car as I did a burn out leaving the shop spit the chocolate out of my window towards their shop. IF THE SPRINGS WERE WRONG CALL THE CUSTOMER! I repeat! you never called me ONCE. Some back ground? I ls swap cars, I repair semis and diesel trucks. I have never found an automotive repair I can't do. I know what Im doing. They may be able to bully most people around with fast whizbang talk but not me. Can't bullshit a bullshitter as the saying goes and I know my shit. Surely not as well as them, they aint dumb, BUT THEY WILL HUSTLE YOU! STAY AWAY

As a 50-yr metal working and mfg. veteran, I have to say, Limited Productions is probably the most…read morequality-conscious machine-shop I've ever experienced. Not only is their work dimensionally accurate, every component is meticulously deburred, clean and packaged. Owner, Glenn Ryan is the "real deal" in technical knowledge and metal-working experience. Somewhat quiet, with a dry humor, he is exceptionally thoughtful in his approach to processing methods and scheduling...he's the kind to ask, "Glenn, how would you make this part". Ltd.Prod. is equally strong in both turning and milling, and just as willing to do a proto-type, as a 1000-pc run. They're equally experienced with stainless, aluminum and plastic and have mfg'd all of the above for me over 5-6 years. They quote their work and honor they're quotes. Delivery times are pretty "on the mark". If Glenn can't meet the requested date, he'll tell you so on the front end, not on due date. Prices are mid-range and fair. But quality exceeds other shops, so I consider the value-proposition to be better at Ltd.Prod. They deserve 5-stars!

This review is for the machine shop. Quality service and nice manager…read more I Broke a drill bit drying to helicoil an intake manifold. They fixed it with a specialty extra long carbide drill bit and helicoiled the thread. Charged $150 ish. The manifold was worth $220 ish. But they were able to do it in a day so I guess I saved buying a new one, and shipping. The book time and labor cost was fair. The only way to get this out properly was going to be pricey, I don't really fault them for it. If the intake wasn't just duracoated I probably would have sold it and bought another.

In February 2020 I came to Phil with a basic build for a 1995 Miata turbo engine. It required basic…read moremachining like line honing and boring the cylinders for oversized pistons and a head skim. Throughout the process Phil caused numerous delays, lost parts, and let the work drag on. It was nearly 6 months, in August 2020, before Phil returned the completed longblock to me. While running low boost during break in, a freeze plug popped out. My tuner and I suspected that the head had lifted due to improper installation, in which Phil was paid to do. This would allow compression to get into the coolant cavities and force that plug out. Phil was accommodating and replaced the plug. However, when the plug was replaced the motor had low compression so I specifically asked Phil to test the head. He never tested the compression but "fixed the compression issues" (at my expense) and gave the car back saying the compression was good. He and his partner mechanic claimed the compression was off due to the timing belt being two whole teeth off! Two days after driving the car again, another freeze plug popped out. The car went back into their care and custody in which they decided to blame the tune that the car has been running absolutely fine on throughout its whole life before that engine was built and during. Phil and his mechanic claimed this tune destroyed my engine and I would have to source a whole new block! Subsequent diagnoses by a separate, trusted, machine shop and tuner proved that the gasket blew between all cylinders and into the coolant cavities. There was absolutely no detonation or any potential tune related issues. The trusted shop has examined the head and stated "all valves are leaking and have sealing issues. This could be due to a lack of proper valve guide issues or other valve concerns. The cylinder head is already well below minimum thickness before any additional machine operations were begun." Phil machined, assembled and installed this head and was specifically told it came off an engine that had overheated so we needed to make sure it didn't get skimmed too much. The piston rings were not properly gapped causing the rings to buckle and melt the pistons. The oil squirters were not installed correctly and were found in the oil pan. This was all discovered by a different shop. His neglect and inability to work with his customers caused over a year of wasted time. His lack of craftsmanship and inability to take accountability for his work has left me with an inoperative and expensive engine that has never run correctly since he rebuilt it. Take caution before you go here
