But Mr. Miller hit the original blue Ford engine color right on the button! And his price for this durable powder coating is less than what I was paying a body shop to spray regular enamel. Another nice surprise was all pieces were bubble wrapped when they were returned by mail, so there were absolutely no scratches. He didn't mark the "shipping and handling" way up like a lot of places do. With Miller's good prices, decent turn around time, and high quality, I definitely will have more items powder coated!

I rarely leave reviews. As a business owner myself, I understand the impact they carry. Four years…read moreago I gave Atlanta Speed Shop five stars and meant every word. Julius and Justin had stepped in to rescue a build on my 1967 F100 that a previous shop had majorly dropped the ball on -- a project that had already cost me over six figures. They were thorough, honest, and went above and beyond. Over the years I referred significant business to them because of that experience. When I acquired my 1968 F100 and was ready for a new build there was no question where it was going. I trusted them with it because they had earned that trust. This update is not written out of frustration. It is written because other customers deserve an accurate account of what happened, and because I exhausted every private option before going public. I brought my 1968 F100 to Atlanta Speed Shop in early 2026 for a significant engine and drivetrain build. I sourced the crate engine and select components directly. The shop handled the transmission rebuild through their own vendor, all remaining parts, and all labor -- totaling just over $10,000 on their invoice. My total investment in this project was well in excess of $20,000. Within the first day of having the truck back I noticed a loud screeching noise on right turns, a throttle that stuck twice, driveshaft scraping, a whining rear end, and oil spots. I reported everything to Justin in writing immediately. The truck went back for its first warranty visit. It came back still unresolved. Following that return the AC stopped working and a shop mechanic was dispatched to my home to fix it -- a basic item that should have been caught before the truck ever left. Julius had signed off on it. The truck continued to have issues. A significant driveline vibration then appeared under hard acceleration that had never existed before this project. The shop requested a ride along with Julius -- the same owner who had signed off on the vehicle multiple times already. The truck went back for a second warranty visit where Julius confirmed the muffler was contacting the driveshaft -- a direct result of their exhaust work. This was consistent with what Justin had already acknowledged in his own words in a text message. The vibration was resolved but the exhaust remains unfinished. A cracked frame rail near a critical suspension component was also disclosed to me for the first time at this visit -- despite the truck having been in their shop multiple times with Julius signing off each time. Today's warranty tow cost me $503 out of pocket -- an expense that should never have been mine on a warranty visit. When the final invoice arrived a 3% credit card fee appeared that had never been disclosed or applied to either of my two prior payments on this same project. Justin acknowledged it and waived it in writing -- because he knew it had not been disclosed. The invoice was never signed by me and the terms were never agreed to. If a response to this review claims these issues were pre-existing I would ask the reader to consider -- if that were true, why were they never disclosed across multiple visits and multiple sign-offs by Julius? Justin acknowledged the exhaust running the driveshaft in his own words after the truck had already been delivered as complete. These are not my characterizations. They are documented in the shop's own communications. The technical capability here is real and my 2022 experience was genuinely excellent. But capability means nothing if the work is not checked before it leaves the shop, warranty issues are disputed rather than resolved, and a loyal customer who invested well in excess of $20,000 and referred significant business to you is treated the way I was treated when things went wrong. I have documentation for every word of this. Future customers deserve to know.

Straight forward and direct…read more I've worked in the auto business for 20+yrs, and I've worked with some shady folks in those years. I've heard every line, and just about every excuse for not following through. I've dealt with junkyard and salvage yards hundreds of times, and these guys have been there for me multiple times (in both the old and new location). I needed an engine for my personal car this go'round, and of the two people I spoke with on the phone, they both genuinely seemed to care about what I was looking for, and when I needed it by. There was some confusion over one engine this, and another engine that, but that's because there was a communication gap between phone calls, and HPC cannot be blamed for this. Donor arrived at their site, then they pulled the engine and had me an engine the same day the donor arrived, and then a phone call to let me know it was ready for pickup. Cool. Being an old technician, I do all my own work, so I just needed them to source the engine this go'round. The mileage was written on the valve-cover, and the VIN plate was still attached so I could do some background check on the car it came out of. Neat. My only gripe is that the parking lot can be tough to get in and out of when they are busy, but that happens at every business, so it's no biggie. I'll be back when I need something else.

The worst machine shop I've had the misfortune of dealing with, personally and professionally…read more Issues: Poor workmanship and quality, incomplete work, low levels of professionalism or professional courtesy, billing for work not performed, and lastly doing unauthorized work. I have had numerous awful experiences both personal and professional with this machine shop. They come highly recommended over the years so I expected at least a 4/5 star service and workman ship to be top notch. They have been in the business for a long time, so you expect a shop like theirs to have it down to a process. Personal: I had my engine built for my track car a shop on the other side of town, I was excited to see the shop I had selected using Ball. I got the engine completely overbuilt, got it on the Dyno for the tune, and my very experienced tuner noticed a noise that caused him to cut off the session and advise me to get it towed back to the shop. Turns out Ball Engine had clearanced my engine wrong, requiring my shop to spend the time to take the motor out and replace Cams, Crank, And all valves and retainers. Another 2 months of my car being down, and she's back. Finally everything seems right. 7K miles later, my engine in my track car snapped a valve on track. Bucket wasn't spinning. Engine seized. 10 K down the drain, because of their mistake. No warranty. Professional: They also did work for my Dealer. Sent some heads over to be inspected and advise on needed work. My customer was on a tight budget rebuild. Ball engine does 500 dollars of unauthorized work. The heads don't even look cleaned. It's still got a bent valve. Subsequently, Each of our service advisors has at least one "incident" with this machine shop, all having to do with work quality and price. It is apparent that Ball Engine is riding on its laurels of previous work and does not care one bit about its customers. Skip this place and save yourself many headaches.
