Motorworks Engine Center in
Amityville (NY)

Motor works was the only shop equipped to handle the motor job my vehicle needed Doug from motor works was very detailed oriented And made sure to call me through the entire process thanks Doug at motor works

Gary was extremely knowledgeable and the engine is running flawlessly…I am going to recommend them to everyone I know…Keep up the GREAT WORK!!! 🤠👍🏾

The guys were trustworthy and transparent about the repairs needed for the car. They updated me on the progress. I hope I never need a repair like that again on my car, but if I do, I know where to take it and whom to recommend. Thanks Motorworks!

Definitely recommend Motorworks. Gary and his crew are knowledgeable, experienced, straightforward and overall a class act.

This place was recommended to me, but I won't be back. Their flat-rate labor fee is outrageous and apparently “implied”. I’ve been to other mechanics in my life where they didn’t even charge a fee to look my car over. When I questioned it, they acted like I didn't want them to be paid for their work—which is completely false. I wholeheartedly believe people should be paid for their time and effort but there’s a point where people take advantage. An employee even tried to compare their prices to paying a hospital bill, which is a ridiculous comparison. They've lost a customer for good with their silly prices and even sillier explanations. Edited: If you’re to respond to me and go public with a statement, then at least get my statements correct and please read my review again because I think you may have missed a few parts in your anger over the one star. Your reply only solidifies my decision in my review.

Motorworks is the only shop we recommend for major engine repairs. Whenever we face a job that is bigger than what we are willing to get in to, Motorworks picks up the baton and gets the job done right. There are a lot of wearable parts in an engine - if you're opening one up, it's best practice to do a comprehensive overhaul. That's why we trust Motorworks recommendations when it comes to this kind of work. Our customer's always have successful outcomes when they get work done here.

I was referred to Motorworks by my mechanic when I needed a new engine installed. What was a very unfortunate situation was made better with the help of Doug and his team. Doug communicated with me flawlessly and answered any and every question I may have had about a fix I knew very little about. Like I told Doug, I hope to never have to see him again under these same circumstances, but if you find yourself needing a new engine, this place is where you need to go!

I had my 2001 Honda Civic’s D17A1 engine completely rebuilt at Motorworks after it started exhibiting occasional overheating and stalling at around 200,000 miles. Gary and Doug were extremely helpful and knowledgeable in walking me through the process and finding the best options for me. I ended up opting for a complete rebuild. Although it was an expensive job (as expected for such a major repair), Doug and Gary were both transparent and fair with the pricing. I was appreciative of the fact they did their due diligence and replaced worn out accessory parts while not having me waste money replacing parts with a lot of operating life left. 10,000 miles later, the rebuilt engine is still running quiet and smooth. Feels like a new car. They even diagnosed and corrected a preexisting, pesky long-cranking/non-starting issue which turned out to be a crankshaft sensor. Although there have been two minor oil leaks since (not uncommon in such a comprehensive rebuild), the team at their shop proactively repaired them free of charge under warranty. While the automatic transmission started failing two days after the rebuild, I do not believe that this was connected to the engine rebuild and was inevitable based on the age (and notorious unreliability) of this transmission model. This was essentially a non-issue for me as I had banked on replacing the transmission alongside the engine rebuild. Based on the great customer service, work quality and my experience so far, I would highly recommend Motorworks to anyone rebuilding their engine. 5/5.

I had a fantastic experience at Motorworks Engine Center. They thoroughly explained our repair options, gave us an estimate that matched the final cost, completed the job ahead of schedule! Our engine now runs like a dream. Highly recommend Motorworks Engine Center for their expertise, honesty, and excellent service.

They are truly the best at what they do and got me back on the road working again fast . Very professional and highly recommend them . Thanks again for turning a bad situation into a great outcome for me . Anthony Micieli .

So far my experience with Motorworks has been clear and concise. They worked it out for me to get my truck back quicker than expected and not only that given it new life. With the new engine I’m hoping to get another 250k miles out of it. Thank you to Doug & Gary for helping me get the exact match for it.

It has been a year since my Hyundai Tucson engine was replaced at Motorworks. I could not have been happier with Gary and the staff throughout the entire process. They are professional, knowledgeable and above all courteous and respectful. Thank you to Gary and Motorworks for giving my car a new life.

Gray & his crew at Motorworks are awesome, my van was in need of a new engine for my 2011 Ford E250 van, the engine kept blowing spark plugs, and cylinder heads were shot, originally I was looking around for brand new vans, nothing is available until 2024 or 25, so I decided to replace my engine, I spoke to Gary on the phone about replacing the engine, he sold me over the phone, I signed a contract with him, the engine came into the shop, only took them 4 days to install it, I got my van back to life. I highly recommend using Motorworks. Rockstar Electric ⚡️ Trevor

I brought my 2009 Mustang in for an engine replacement due to several underlying issues with my motor. Beforehand, Doug was in constant contact with me and provided me with everything I needed to know throughout the process and provided me with regular updates, from shipment of the motor to installation. They are very professional and definitely know what they are doing. If you are looking to replace your motor I highly recommend bringing your vehicle here if you are in the area.

The owners of Motorworks, Gary and Doug are very professional and knowledgeable. I needed to make a decicion to replace the engine in my car or buy a new car. Speaking with Gary and Doug helped me decide confidently to replace the engine and I'm happy with the decision. They are very clear about the cost of the work with no hidden fees. They stand by their work and their customer service is above and beyond. I highly recommend Motorworks!

The folks over at motorworks engine center are very knowledgeable trustworthy and give you fair honest 'pricing our experience was nothing but pleasurable. We 1st started off at the Volkswagen dealership where we had gotten a estimate of a $6000 for a car repair which was too excessive so we ended up looking for a second Opinion and I'm so glad we did. Doug took the time to explain what the process was walked us through his shop and gave us a very very fair pricing for making the car repair less than $2000. We would highly recommend motorworks engine center to any of our friends and family great group of guys thanks again

Had the engine replaced on my 2017 Malibu. Got it back earlier than expected. Had a problem, brought it back and they took care of it same day. Remember when you have major work done on your car there can always be a hitch. It's how it's taken care of after the hitch and they did a great job My car now runs like new again. Highly recommend this shop.

I have a 2004 F150 that had a locked up engine. I found Motorworks by accident while viewing an ad for another truck that had work done by them. I researched them online, spoke to Gary on the phone and was impressed enough to visit and gather information, set up an appointment to bring in my truck and left a deposit. My Remanufactured engine arrived 4-5 weeks before anticipated, towed my truck down 3 days later and had it back in less than a week. I knew it would be a job with a lot of rusted bolts and other parts that would need to be replaced. Gary and his crew did a great job with all that and at a fair price. My truck runs great. I HIGHLY recommend Motorworks. Thanks Gary I brought my truck back, not for an engine issue but an unrelated issue with a transmission dipstick tube. Gary did get it in and repaired as quick as it was possible. Thanks again Gary

I have a 2008 Chevy Avalanche which had some issues and needed a new motor to fix the problems. I brought my truck to Motorworks to get a rebuild and had a great experience with Gary and Doug. Very upfront, knowledgeable, honest and great customer service. Had a few more issues that they discovered and were able to put me in the right direction to help rectify. I highly recommend this business.

My 2016 Ford Explorer engine unexpectedly decided that it had enough of this life and died. While I'm sure everyone would agree that having to replace your engine isn't something anyone would look forward to, the folks at Motorworks made it a seamless process and provided multiple options to keep costs down. The communication and quality of work were top notch and I would feel very comfortable recommending them to my friends and family.

Motor Works Center was a referral from a tradesman I previously encountered who knew my expectations of honesty and reliability of workmanship. Doug and his crew replaced my well maintained but worthily used 2004 Ram 2500 truck engine, which to this day, 9 months later has performed excellently. Doug knew I wanted to keep my truck for an extended time, his suggestion to change out many of my original and other worn out parts that had to be re-installed anyway was a great idea. Sure there was an up-charge price difference for the new parts and I expected that- but if those parts failed along the way- far more expensive it would be to repair or replace. Now I drive with confidence, worry free short and more importantly long distances knowing vital parts are new and reliable. I would recommend and bring family and friends to Motor Works with the confidence that quality work would be done but as importantly, they would be treated with the respect that give all a piece of mind.

Brought my car into Motorworks since my mechanic recommended them. I needed a water pump, new thermostat and hose replacements. Although I can't fault them for late and wrong parts they claim they were delivered, The car was there for 2 and a half days. Was this a case of BS or truth? They were very professional and when the car was near ready they discovered the Alternator was overheating and required replacement. The got the part within the same day and was able to pickup the car. The price price was steep, but then again welcome to NY and they to have bills to meet. The car has been running fine ever since except for a heater hose dripping which was not their fault since it is berried under the manifold and was an original hose. SO in all fairness to Motorworks I feel they are competent reasonable and would use them for any future Engine work my regular shop does not do!

Motorworks was fantastic. I worked with the team over the phone, had my vehicle delivered having never met the anyone at the shop, and the work completed in a timely fashion. They kept me abreast of the work and any issues that arose. When I decided to replace the A/C lines in my 25 year old vehicle, they helped me source the right part to get my car back on the road. This shop 100% puts the customer first, does amazing work, and left me really happy. I would recommend this company to anyone looking to replace an engine.

Great experience with Motorworks. I had to replace the 5.7 engine in my 2011 Ram after experiencing major damage caused by lifter failure inherent in this generation of the engine. I found the folks there very knowledgeable and they even made a couple of recommendations on replacing some engine components as preventive maintenance against end of life failure. Install was about one week and the engine ran great when I picked up the truck. Few if any places around anymore that specialize in engine replacement. I would recommend giving Motorworks a call if you're in the market for a new engine.

Motorworks did a great job on my 1999 Jeep Wrangler. Doug and Gary were very helpful and explained everything before starting work. I even got a tour of the shop. They were up front about the time it would take, and possible added costs for that could come up during the replacement of my 4.0 6cyl motor and clutch. When I had a minor issue one month later, they made the repair without a fuss. This is a great shop! Thanks again guys.

This is my second time using Motorworks in the past decade, and if it were possible to leave a 6 star review, I would. Doug and Gary are honest guys who take pride in their shop's work and stand behind it. Experience matters and there's a reason business is booming at Motorworks. Pricing is fair, the wrenching is done correctly and quickly, and customer service is truly outstanding. 2011 Wrangler runs like new again and we couldn't be happier. Many Thanks and Keep up the great work!

I could not be happier with the level of customer service from Doug, Gary and the entire team at Motorworks. My 2005 Ford Sport Trac needed a new engine and from start to finish, it was the best level of service across the board. They took great care of my car and it is now back on the road running better than ever! In addition, Doug took care of an unrelated issue with the lock on the drivers side door without me having to ask. It didn't go unnoticed. Thank you guys.. Very happy! :-)
