Vic has built numerous engines for me over the years. Even when I was a young collage kid and didn't know much. He was still very informative, honest, and did quality work. Now years later he has built some amazing race engines that have withstood more abuse than I ever thought possible. Vic, Scott, and the rest of the team are very helpful and will work with you every step of the way! read more

if I could give zero start I would. the staff is very rude. They do unauthorized work, lie to your face and charge you more money for it!! TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSE WHERE!!! They also bought all of their positive reviews to keep their sorry "business" afloat. DONT GET SCAMMED!!! read more

Excellent,caring shop the caters to my demands to take care of my classic car like it was their own. They are willing to go the extra mile to fix something under the hood that wasn't on the "fix it" list, by calling first and suggesting part X should be handled, as well. With professional explanations, I understand, agree and get my car back in perfect running order. That means everything to me: my car is reliable on a long drive, tuned and runs great. I've also had transmission work done, dashboard disassembled and speedometer worked on, and general maintenance. Thanks to Vic and his mechanics for everything! Happy customer! read more

Only recommending Gary at Champion Machine shop in Campbell from this point forward. Yeah you got my motor "done" but fragged itself within 500 miles, Gary got it right first try with zero incompetent employees and actual real measurements! read more

Vic and his team are the best to work with. We had a tough project for him. A car was in very bad shape (in pieces) and no one knows anything about it. From the start, Vic educated us about the things we should and shouldn't do based on what we are looking for. So we don't waste money on it. He's very honest and will give you the best suggestions you need. It took a lot of effort for him to find the parts from all over the place to get it running. The car needed a lot of work including the motor and everything else. It's looking awesome and running now. He even has his DMV dedicated person to help with the paperwork. We basically didn't have to worry about anything. It's a great experience working with them. We would recommend him to anyone we encounter. read more

Contacted victory auto shop for recommendations on fixing rebuilding or replacing a engine on a vehicle I have. Made the appointment with the owner of the shop. "Vic" After a week, I called back to confirm the appointment for the following day. No answer or call back. After a week. What a shame, I wanted to do business with a small business person. Can't even get a call back!!!! read more

Victor guided me through the process of finding a block to rebuild for my classic car. Now I have a car with a matching numbers.

If you appreciate QUALITY work and being told HONESTLY what work your car needs - and when (vs being given a long list of "must fix NOW' and not knowing what to believe), Vic (owner) and his team should be your first call! If you love classic cars but yours looks more old than classic, Vic @ team can restore 'heaps of metal on wheels' in to beautiful works of art that get featured at car shows, including the ads for the show! If you are considering investing in a Classic car but aren't sure you're getting a good deal, you can have Vic check out your potential purchase and even negotiate a fair price for you! His shop's great work is so in demand, he always has a waiting list! Vic believes in doing the job right, using the best parts, doesn't cut corners and will always be straight with his customers. We've been using Victory Machine for nearly two decades (and I often wait for my car to be done, which is how I've had the opportunity to observe and hear what I'm telling you in this review!) and have always been more than happy with their work. I've also seen several of the classic cars he's restored either at his shop or at car shows. I regularly hear people who know much more about cars and engines than I do talk about the expertise they get from Vic - in both the work itself and the advice he gives. I highly recommend Victory Automotive Machine! Whatever your automotive need, when it comes to cars, Vic is your guy! If he can't do what you're wanting, it probably can't be done, and if it can be, he'll help you find how best to get it done! The Campbell shop is open Mon - Fri and can be reached at 408-628-4640. read more

Brought my company van over to be serviced for a tune up and a few other minor things. The shop is very clean and the service time was fantastic! I dropped my car off and it was done the same day. I found the owner very helpful and nice to work with. The car is running great again! read more

Excellent service and very professional. I actually went in and met the guys at the shop and talked with them about my engine project. After finding out that they were booked for about a month, I asked about scheduling a spot on the 'list'. They told me to call back at the end of the month if they had not called first. I called and they told me to bring the parts in the following week. Three weeks later the machine work was finished. Outstanding work! I assembled the engine and checked clearances on everything as it was going together. Every single thing I checked was spot on in tolerance. I now have just under 100 miles on my new engine and could not be happier. Yes, it took about a month and a half to get in and out, but it was worth the wait. I will definitely use them again should I need automotive machine services. read more

If you want to pay for victory machine shop to learn how to pretend to fix electrical problems then go here. they charged me $ 800 to fix my charging problem and then told me it was not totally fixed. it would charge but not stay charged. all he told me was his guy learned things on my car and he put wire loom wrap on my wires ! $800 for half ass work clown mechanics I would never ever recommend to my car club or anybody on the street I meet read more

I've used Victor Automotive Machine for various machine shop needs for several years and always been very happy with the quality of their work. I primarily bring them Honda parts for servicing and they always do a great job and treat me well even though it's not classic muscle car work. I appreciate that and am happy to refer my friends and fellow Yelpers to this fine business. read more

I called Vick on a referral from Steven's Creek Nissan to tackle a job for me. He went out of his way to examine the flywheel to see if it could resurface it or not. When the digital image I provided him wasn't clear enough, he picked the flywheel up personally and had it back to me in the same day. Thanks for going the extra mile and your vallient effort Vick. read more

Vic has a great shop! I have been working with Vic for over 15 years. Vic builds all the engines for our race cars.

Hi ! got my 1967 Oldsmobile 400 motor restored to original specks.....and what a beautiful job ! The shop is really clean and in very good order. Lot's of muscle cars in the shop looks like old school. The price about average to high end. You get what you pay for I guess......... thanks, Frankie. read more

Vic and his team were a great help when I was building up my small block for my '67 Camaro. They saved me lots of money on the build process (kept me buying things that were not necessary) and also after i built it corrected a few of my mishaps later for a reasonable price. Vic gives you the help, information and confidence you need for any at home build or restoration. I recommend Vic to anybody building motors or restoring a classic. read more

My Navigator was running really badly (knocking/sluggish) at about 100K miles. I took it to three different places, including two dealerships. The best advice I got was, use a better grade of gas. I took it Victory and Vic drove it and said, you need new spark plugs. He replaced them, at a very reasonable price and now it runs like a champ. I am taking all my auto service needs here from now on! read more

wasn't impressed with the owner's lack of courtesy and his price to fix the problem was way too expensive....don't advise you use them...

I give them 1 star because they helped unload my block. Time to get off your high horse Vic your not all that ( arrogant )

Victory Machine is one of the most competent, trustworthy, ethical and talented shops I've ever dealt with. Unlike many shops that try to bill the highest dollar amount possible- Vic will figure out the best approach and help you keep the budget in line. I own a 1967 442 Convertible and a 1968 Cutlass Convertible- Oldsmobile motors are very difficult to work with and need special attention when getting a rebuild- Vic at Victory Machine understands the big and small details. I'm not easy to impress yet I was blown away by Victory Machine. read more
