Ridge Reamers Machine Shop in Arvada, CO
Good? Bad?
Has anyone had work done their or knows if their credible?
They offer decent prices and I've heard a little bit about them but an opinion from someone in community who has had work done would be nice.

Or possibly another recommended machine shop.

I have had a bunch of stuff done there. SUBA uses them too.

I can't 100% verify the work yet, since my 2.35L motor is still on the stand.

They have bored and honed my block to custom pistons, and the tolerances were acceptable (slightly on the loose side, but acceptable when I talked with SUBA. They also polished my crank journals. Pretty good service.


Area Machine (around 68th and Federal) did a crank grind for me, and one rod journal was 0.0001" over. Not too much to be concerned about most likely. SUBA and CCR also use this shop.

These are the two machine shops I am familiar with.

Ridge reamer is a good shop have had them deck heads, resurfaced flywheels. Wish I had brought my other projects to them in the past.
