I have just collected my 1380 race prepared engine block. Great attention to detail. Really impressed. Machine shops are getting rarer and rarer these days. It is incredible to find such a well equipped specialist shop capable and willing to do the full job, Great work guys. Frank

Avoid don't use...more faces than big ben
Took 6k of my money and gave me a scrap engine full of aluminium fragments from a Heli-Coil repair and TDC stamped inaccurately on the front pully for ignition timing.After speaking with MCCS and there replies to my questions about the build i lost faith. The engine went to Keith at calver special tuning who revealed a catalogue of problems.Again be aware of MCCS.

Great skills and facilities
Great skills and facilities. It has been truly great to find a fully equipped machine shop that also can build engines. All in one building. A few of our club members have used these guys for complete builds, we have used them for machining with great results. We built our own engines but it was great to see the machining works completed and the builds went really well.I have used machine shops in the past who were good but I feel these, with completing their own builds know what people want. The parts came through chemically cleaned, more or less ready to build. That’s a big time saver for us as we do not have anything more than a hand wash. When we first met them they only have two members of staff and things seemed slow moving but the last time we went in there was another gentleman there and things just seemed to be flowing a bit nicer for them. Always busy but they seem much happier with the extra man in there.

I gave up
I gave up and cancelled the order for a £10k engine after 8 months, consistently failed to deliver on commitments. After paying a deposit, received NOTHING, no promised power curves, photos of the build....anything at all. Just a stream of broken promises. Avoid!

Big Boots to Fill
First time using them. I used the machine shop they have purchased for many, many years. I was devastated when I was informed that the machine shop would be closing and only met these when collecting some parts that were ready. I am really pleased I met them and have now moved my work over to them. The machining side is very impressive as they have combined the machines with ones they already had. Very friendly staff, very knowledgeable. Happy again knowing I can continue to get my work through.

Be Cautious
I bought pistons from them but after a week they decided to tell me they were out of stock, kept my money for a month I rang and emailed every day. Eventually got my money back

MCCS Formerly A-Series Spares
Unfortunately mccs had enough bites of the cherry at putting failures right however I continue to have problems that are falling on death ears. After looking further into the business it turns out mccs is owned by Mike Stevenson. However I can assure you Rob Stevenson formerly director of a series spares which has endless amounts of bad reviews on here is certainly in charge of the operation at mccs. The company is not what they portray and from my experience up to there old tricks. I can write a book on the issues, excuses and unprofessionalism I've faced.
