Do you work on cars at Acme Speed Shop? 

No, only engine and engine components.

 

Do you offer machine work on MG, and Triumph engines, for the person wanting to do the assembly themselves?

No, we are just too busy to do this type of work anymore. if you are local, we can refer you to good machine shop in the area, assist you with precision measuring, and supply you with parts 

 

Do you still build SU carburetors? 

Yes, but only modified, or race prepped.

 

When I email you a question about my engine rebuild project, what do you need to know? 

What you want done, or what part you need, and the model year, and or engine type you have.  

 

Do you still rebuild stock cylinder heads, or stock engines?

Yes.  

 

Do you work on engines other than MG and Triumph?

I do Austin Healey engines as well.   

 

What other parts, or services do you offer?

Custom engine part work. Unique performance parts not offered by traditional British part vendors. 

 

If I buy a set of wheels, or a engine rebuild kit, can I pick them up from you at Acme Speed Shop?

Well you could, but almost all parts are dropped shipped from my supplier to you, so there would still be shipping charges. It is the way most businesses like mine operate today, if I ship, and stock a given part here, I've got to pay shipping to get it here, and that then become part of the cost, and then you have to pay more shipping to get it to you. I mostly just drop ship directly to you, because that saves you money in extra shipping cost.

 

Do you sell and ship parts to people outside the US?

Sure, I have shipped parts to over 20 countries. 

 

Can I come and visit you at Acme Speed Shop?

Sure, just call and schedule, to make sure you catch me. I am for the most part, a one man shop, so if I need to go on a errand, or go to lunch, I just take off, so it always best to call, and let me know when you are coming.

 

I have seen race cars built from your shop, do you still build race cars?

No, these days we specialize in engine building, cylinder head porting, DIY engine rebuild kits, and VTO wheels, and that is more than enough to keep us busy.
