I came in with my Chevrolet Avalanche to have an engine replacement. I cannot tell you enough how amazing this location is. Before and after the process I can still call and ask for his opinion and he always responds to my calls. The work done on my car was very efficient and done in a timely manner. I would highly recommend and go back there for any work needed on my vehicle. Very efficient and I have no issues with my vehicle. read more

Martin and his team at AMOS Engine Installation replaced the engine in my 2001 Toyota Tacoma pick-up truck. When one of the valves blew in my original engine, repairing an engine with 160,000 miles was impractical. I talked over my options with Martin and decided to buy a new (rebuilt) Toyota engine over the internet, and had it delivered to Martin's shop. He promised me a two-week turnaround from the day I brought my truck in for the swap, and he was true to his word. The new engine was flawlessly installed, and Martin and crew made sure everything was working perfectly. He even pointed out a few other things on the truck that I should have looked after (it does, after all, have 160,000 miles on it!). Martin cooperated in getting my old engine crated up and shipped back to the internet supplier so that I received a "used core credit". This whole process wasn't cheap (altho Martin's price was competitive), but my "new" truck now runs like a million bucks! Martin and crew do first-rate work!! read more

My brakes started squealing earlier this week so of course I'm like great! I did a search here on yelp and sent out a request for a quote. After messaging back and forth with a few different places Amos Engine Installation had the best price for what I needed. They also had appointment availability that quickly fit my schedule. Customer service was also great, super friendly and my car was done quickly. I would feel good about sending people I know here and would return again if the need arose. Thank for your fair prices, not trying to take advantage of people who don't know what's what with auto repair and for your fast, friendly service. read more

Martin from Amos diagnosed and replaced the oxygen sensor in my 2003 Acura TL Type S. I found Amos to be honest, reasonable, knowledgeable, professional and patient. Martin also took the time to explain some preventive maintenance I needed to take with a car this old and also gave me advice on when I needed to do this maintenance. I will be sending my car back to them again when the time comes and, based on my experience, I hIghly recommend them. read more

I wasn't even going to request a quote from Amos, as I was planning to stick with brake specific chains, but it was one of the four Yelp chose. They gave me a great, specific price quote immediately instead of going back and forth like several of the others I asked. Once I was ready to schedule, I went in the next day. It took less than half the time I was expecting and Martin was great with me and my old, needs a lot of work car and didn't try to pressure me on everything else it needs. read more

We had an issue with the catalytic converter in our 2012 Ford Focus SE. Even though the quote that was given to me was wrong (and still less than other mechanics) Martin fixed it at the price that he quoted me for, saving me hundreds of dollars. I will definitely be coming back for major car issues in the future! read more

I went by for a vibration in my truck. Martin looked at it and stressed how important the u-joint needed to be replaced. Now most places you feel they just say that, nope not here. If they say it needs to be done now, it needs to be done now. With a great price using great parts i was in and out in almost 2 hrs. You wont be dissapointed with these guys. read more

Ray , this is a list of the things I found that we're not correct on my vehicle.  First let me say I think I have been more than patient with you ,and I had even given y'all the opportunity to reconcile your mistakes by taking it back to you 4 times and it still wasn't running right. As of right now I have invested $6,536.97 and my car is sitting in my driveway on jack stands and it sounds like shit and it's getting progressively worse. You can see and hear it in the video I've attached. I've compiled a list of 17 mistakes that I found while going over the work y'all preformed. All of which were in effect during the time frame I was breaking in my motor. The reason I've taken so long to get back to you is because I was scared  to assess the damage and my worst fears became a reality. I have to start all over again. And the funny part is that every motor guy I talk to says that this was a textbook motor swap and I didn't even have any electronics to install. I could go on and on , but I will tell you this I have not publicly criticized you or your business in any negative way. We both know the warranty on my motor is probably voided. What I would like to happen and what would be a satisfying gesture would be to get half of the installation cost back($850). You have no idea of the time and money it is going to take to repair it and that's if it is worth repairing. I think I'm being very fair with everything. I would hate to have to go through different avenues to resolve this. Thanks. read more

Found my go to car repair place.Its hard finding a place that wont charge you an arm and a leg.

I was in dire need of a new engine for my 1990 Chevy R1500 burb for about 4 years. The last two to three years were well planned trips too and from lumber yards, McCoys, big box stores i.e; Lowe's, Home Depot, etc... It was getting kind of scary there before I decided to make a move from buying another burb, fuse parts and various other plans to avoid the inevitable. I had it down to a few options until I actually searched, "new engine installation." At this point in the game I had assessed the damages and had prior numbers as to what this is gonna sum up to. Amos Engine Installation boom! Listed 1st, great reviews and I like what they had to say both on the site and on the horn! Both Ray and Martin' are great guys, courteous, knowledgeable and easy to do business with. I like their straight up good sense of what your needs and wants are... "they listen." They follow up and will keep you in the loop. I like these guys, and I recommend them, only, if you want honesty, clean work with personal service that will sure satisfy, with a smile and with a warranty! What a concept... What a pleasure. Thank you guys! read more

Finally someone who is trustworthy, honest and dependable. Hard to find but this is the place. Highly recommend. Very good people.
