Tired of having to make a four-hour drive anytime he needed cylinder head work, block work or crank work done, Keith Happs finally bit the bullet and decided to open his own machine shop. The result was Happs CNC Performance Engines in Alexandria, MO, which opened its doors to customer jobs in November 2018.
The shop does everything in-house with five full-time employees and has the capabilities to take care of Ag engines, industrial engines and performance engines. With a bevy of state-of-the-art equipment, Happs is set up to accommodate a lot of engine work, and according to Keith, the plan is to keep that engine work affordable to customers.
Recently, the shop finished up building a 557 cubic inch Mopar Mega Block engine for bracket racing and we’re going to give you the details in this episode of Engine of the Week.
