Major Engine Repair

Most repair shops will not open an engine. If the job means pulling the front cover or dropping the pan, it gets handed to a specialist somewhere else — and you wait longer and pay twice. H&R does that work in this building.

Timing chains and tensioners, camshaft phasers, crankshaft and cam gears, water pumps, oil pump and seal work, head gaskets. Recent jobs off this floor: a Honda Odyssey J35 stripped down for a timing job and an oil pump seal, an E60 twin-turbo pulled for access, cylinder heads off with the bores open.

Full rebuilds too, when an engine is far enough gone that a rebuild is the honest answer. But most of what comes through here is major repair — fixing the engine you already have instead of selling you a different one.
