Engine repair service near Anderson Island, WA

My 88' Chevy Truck needed a fresh 454 c.i.d. engine. I found Pacific Engine Rebuilders, Inc. through the nickel want adds as the only one that would touch a big block motor. (or so I thought being new to this area) The engine took forever for the rings to seat. Gas mileage was poor from the start but was worse when they got done. You would hope that a new engine wouldn't use much oil. At least not like an engine with over 200,000 miles on it. But that's not the case with this one. It leaks and burns oil like they didn't bother with the engine rebuild. The truck blows a serpentine belt every 500 miles. Come to find out, that Pacific Engine Rebuilders used the wrong main shaft pulley for the belt and it's off by over 1/2 an inch. Pacific Engine Rebuilders charged me to resurface the fly wheel for the new clutch but a transmission shop here in my local area showed me that they didn't bother to do the work. Even having 200,000 plus miles on the truck, it used to pull my 16' work trailer without a problem. It's been to southern California and back several times. In that trailer was my tools for work and my full dresser Harley. After Pacific Engine Rebuilders got done it won't pull a hill with my tool trail at all. The owner of this company refuses to talk about it. His employees are less than qualified to do the work. Just like the last two people that commented on this site, he was full of excuses and how it's not his fault. I can't stress enough to anyone wanting an engine rebuilt.... Stay Away From Pacific Engine Rebuilders, Inc. I'm out $6,000.00 dollars and consider it stolen at this point.

We hired Bryan to come out and install a fuel pump in our Classic 57 Chevy in early July. He promptly came out,,,,,,without calling. We had the fuel pump and my hubby (who is 80 and legally blind) had taken the old one out. We just needed Bryan to put the new one in. He did this. He hooked up the gas lines, we paid him and he left. 2 days later we went to take the car out and the gas lines were leaking badly. We contacted Bryan,,,,,,he said he was hired to install a fuel pump not hook up gas lines..????? We have been in touch for nearly a month now,,,,,he had a family emergency, he has to check his schedule, etc ,,,,,and now he won't even reply. I do NOT recommend this guy if you want a guarantee on his work.

I’m very pleased with Northshore Automotive. It’s the only place I bring my cars to for maintenance. Why? They do excellent work, they have reasonable prices, and they have excellent customer service. It's one of those things you just want to keep it for yourself, but I guess I have to share. I would not go anywhere else!
