I had rear gears installed by them and no problems. I know other people that have had cams and engine work done by them and they were happy. The shop use to be run by the father now it is his son.

I guy I always see racing at Fontana had a fresh motor built by them Fail and they wouldn't back up there work. I would rather go with CMS where Ryne is known to back up his work. I don't know the specifics just that he said to stay away.
I originally had my headers installed years ago by them and they charged me $650 to install headers, new plugs/wires and motor mounts. I made it super clear to them to install my GM gaskets on the headers and they said they did. I later found out they used the shitty *** pacesetter ones that came with the headers and kept the GM ones. At the time I was only making $9/hr so I was kinda pissed it was so expensive for a half a days work. But I didn't know of any other shops or people to install them for me.
My car went in at 6 am friday. It ended up taking them 4 days and me having to call TSP to realize the coating on my headers made the fit for the Y-pipe too snug to slide on properly. They actually couldnt figure this out for themselves. I didnt get my car till late monday

I've had good experiences with Don Lee.
He did my clutch a while back on my Camaro. It was pretty cheap, quick and painless. Can't complain. He's also done other work on my car along with another shop at the same time. Weird, I know...

I had my subframe connectors welded in there about 4-5 years ago. They did a good job on welding them on but didn't tighten the subframe connector to lower control arm bolt(s) enough, so when i drove away it was obvious. I turned my car around, went back and talked to them and they fixed the problem.

When confronted with the issues, I never heard back from Tim. I know a few guys that swear by his work, but I won't go back and I caution everyone to check everything they have done at DLA.
