   Have been using these chaps since the late 70s ! Work quality is always 100% I don’t often set a deadline but when I do it’s always met. Never been unhappy with the pricing particularly when they have saved yet another expensive / unobtainium part from the scrap pile. True craftsmen and jolly decent chaps. Thank you for your service chaps very much appreciated. Dave H. IOM

   It would be great if they closing time would not be misleading. On Google says 17:00 closing time in reality is 16 when everyone still working that makes it impossible to drop off parts if you work week days. Edit: on the business door says it closes at 16:00. Got needed to go on a day off. So far a good experience.

   I've used SEP for 20 years. They've rebuilt many press-fit BMW crnkshafts for me. Recently their standard of work and attitude has plumetted and I won't use them again. My last crankshaft took nearly four months and was unusable when it came back. It was so far out of alignment it wouldn't rotate when fitted. 77 thou out of alignment! No apology from SEP but they did agree it was wrong and would redo it. This took a further 3 weeks. They were supposed to post it out to me but for two weeks nothing arrived. Instead I made a 120 mile journey to collect it. It is still 40 thou out of alignment and I'm going to have to send it somewhere else to have it properly repaired.

   I've used SEP a number of times to carry out a variety of different work on both classic & vintage Triumph heads, barrels & crankshafts. Their work has always been A++ but they can be a bit slow during peak times throughout the year. Personally I think they are the best company in the area for this type of work if traditional quality of workmanship is your priority.

   I use this company regularly, mainly for head skims, but they did a good job of my Rover V8 top hat liners and managed to repair a otherwise scrap VW 20v head by welding the damaged coolant galleries. They are busy and may not be as quick as other engineers due to not being able to get the/good staff, but on the flip-side the owners are the ones doing the work now so its a good job!
