Johnson's Quality Machine
Thanks for stopping by Johnson's Quality Machine, owned and operated by Mike Johnson. We are a full service automotive machine shop in southern Oregon, serving our local communities of Grants Pass, Medford, Rogue River, Central Point, and others, with meticulous machine work and parts for standard and high performance engines, cylinder head porting and polishing, custom engine building, and new and remanufactured parts for both the import and domestic automotive markets.
While specializing in performance engine builds and head work, we apply the same experience and desire for perfection to every job, including your 3 cylinder Sprint head. If we take the job, we do it right. If parts are needed, we use quality parts that don't lead to come-backs. No exceptions. If you want the $45 valve job, go to the parts store or other guy.
We have recently entered the national scene with an internet presence, offering the same quality automotive machine work, custom head work, and custom engines. We also offer quality parts, such as new head castings or complete replacement heads for some of those troublesome applications that crack or spit spark plugs, or new castings and complete heads for popular applications, like the Toyota 22R, 22RE, 22REC motors, at, hopefully, the best price on the web. As always, upgrading cam selections, valve size, and porting are options on most of these selections. If you don't see it, ask. Shipping is not that expensive on most items, particularly aluminum heads, so it's worth checking out. And remember, we're in Oregon, so NO SALES TAX on anything (as of now....).
We offer, and will offer more factory performance parts, such as Ford Racing heads, Mopar Performance Parts, etc. And while we may not be able to beat some "catalogue" performance stores on all of these items, we offer upgrades, porting, and hands on work that they can't. Some of the performance replacement parts are considerably less expensive than a factory standard replacement part, particularly some heads. Among others, we offer Eagle Specialty Products crankshafts, 4340 steel rods, pistons, and rotating assemblies, at the lowest possible cost, and the web pages for these will be going up soon. Call if you are looking for Eagle parts or stroker kits for your engine build.
So, check out our pages for machine work, custom work, new parts for Ford, Chevy (and GM), Mopar, Honda, Toyota, and all the rest. Remember, if you don't see it, ask. If we don't have it, or can't get it, we will tell you where to find it if we know. If our tutorials aren't up when you read this, they soon will be, so check back. We intend on covering things such as ignition timing, cam timing, electrical system, choosing a cam, setting valves, basic engine assembly, etc.
We are one of the quality automotive machine shops on the web. We have family experience working with Weiand, Offenhauser, Enderle, Dyers Machine Service (blowers), the Ford dyno shop, Honda Performance Development, Toyota Racing Development, and others, going back generations. We have produced precision tooling used by major firearms manufacturers. We take pride in our work and in doing things correctly.
Interesting side project for our family.
This is the novelty piece for hot rodders and auto shop owners. It is a scale version of the venerable GMC 6-71 blower, cast from aluminum in 3 pieces, and polished to a brilliant luster. It serves as a business card holder, pen/pencil holder, and conversation piece. It also won't blow off your desk or counter. These are designed, pattern built, cast, and polished in the USA.
