We have been in the machine shop business since 1929. As opposed to most auto parts store chains, we find it to be a profitable segment of our business. Twenty of our parts stores have full machine shops. Together with Midwest Cylinder Head, our engine-rebuilding factory in Nevada, Iowa, we have enjoyed a sound reputation for producing quality work at a fair price. Midwest Cylinder Head can repair and recondition cracked or otherwise damaged aluminum and cast iron cylinder heads and cylinder blocks to like new condition. We also specialize in exchange and custom cylinder head and cylinder block welding, reconditioning and repair, both in aluminum and cast iron, gas and diesel applications. We repair agricultural, automotive, truck and heavy equipment engines and related parts, including, but not limited to, rock shaft housings, transmission housings, and various cast iron welding. We provide our services to individuals, machine shops, auto/truck/diesel/agricultural/heavy equipment repair shops, and engine remanufacturers, from the smallest to the largest applications. Our customers range from the United States military to antique tractor enthusiasts whose attention to detail rivals that of most ardent hotrod aficionados. This division has capitalized on the use of electronic marketing that has brought in customers from all over the world. If no one else can fix it, we probably can.
