Our story

A shop you can hand your engine to

Champion Automotive Machine Shop opened on January 1, 2016 in Enterprise, Alabama. Owner-operator John Potts built the shop around one idea: do careful, measured engine machine work and stand behind it. We serve drivers, farmers, fleets, and repair shops across the Wiregrass — restoring performance and reliability one block at a time.

Most people who call us have been burned before, or simply don't know who to trust with an expensive block. We keep it simple: honest assessments, real communication, and machine work guaranteed to your satisfaction.

  • Open since January 1, 2016 with over 10 years of machining experience
  • All machine work guaranteed to your satisfaction
  • Clear communication — you always know what your engine needs and why
  • Trusted by homeowners, repair shops, businesses and tractor companies

Who we serve

Built for the Wiregrass

From 522b Glover Ave in Enterprise, we machine engines for customers across Enterprise, Alabama and the Wiregrass region. Whether you're bringing in a street block, a diesel truck engine, or a tractor that needs to earn its keep, we treat the work the same — precise, explained, and guaranteed.

  • DIY builders and homeowners restoring a daily driver or project engine
  • Repair shops that need reliable block and head machine work
  • Fleets and businesses keeping trucks and equipment online
  • Farmers and tractor companies needing diesel and tractor engine machining

What we do — and don't

Dedicated machine shop

We are an automotive machine shop. Everything we do is engine machine work: cylinder boring, sleeving, line boring, honing, block and head surfacing, and stroker clearancing for auto, truck, diesel, industrial, farm tractor, and motorcycle engines.

We do not offer oil changes, tires, or general automotive repair. If your job is machine work, you're in the right place — call and tell us what you have.
