Default ATK HP ENGINES Seeks a new Engine Builder

ATK High Performance Engines is looking for a new Performance and Race Engine Builder to add to our High Performance Division. We are currently looking for someone who is familiar and able to build/tune LS engines as well as early style Chevy's and Fords. The Division is headed by Mark Johnson, formerly of Reher & Morison Racing Engines. We are not looking to train from scratch, but someone who has the know how and can jump in the routine and go as well as learn. Must have own tools and be METICULOUS when it comes to attention to detail and documentation of work.

Experience Needed:
Engine assembling/Balancing/Blue Printing
Machining
Head Porting
Checking and setting of clearances
Final assembly of engine from stock - race engines
Dyno setup (operator a plus)
LS Tuning
Familiar with major performance parts/brands


We are based in Grand Prairie, TX. You must have automotive knowledge and know the year, makes and models of cars from the 60's- Present. We offer benefits and 401K. The company is probably one of the best companies to work for as we are like a family here and have lots of room for growth. If you are interested send your resume to NOT-A-SPONSOR@NONSPONSOR.com.org.gov.net.edu...Google them. and we will review it. Here are a few of our sites so that you can get a feel for who we are and what we do.

www.NOT-A-SPONSOR.com.org.gov.net.edu ...Google them.

Let me know if you have any questions.

So to even be considered, what are the basic requirements that someone should know? I know a lot, problem with me is that I haven't had a lot of opportunity to put it into practice

I am sure a SAM grad would be awesome! If you have a resume be sure to submit it to brandon. I'm pretty sure this is something they are looking for! Plus another Ls1tech member would be nice... That would make a total of 4 with you!

Mark Johnson is a helluva nice guy and LKQ is good company to work for, this would be great opportunity for qualified individual. Good luck in your search.

Heck no.....I cant think of a more laid back job. Your on your own, there is music playing in the assembly room and all the guys are good guys. Finding someone worth a darn or who can actually make it to work just seems to impossible.

We are now owned by LKQ which is a VERY large company, we are literally taking over the industry. Its a great time to get into this company while were taking off faster than ever.
