Elite Engines and Machining: Your Trusted Auto Machine Shop in Colorado Springs, CO
Precision, Performance, and Personalized Care for Your Vehicle
At Elite Engines and Machining, we take pride in being more than just an auto shop: we’re a full-service auto machine shop dedicated to precision, performance, and personalized care. For decades, our shop and its predecessor, Ehnes Rink Automotive, have been a cornerstone of the Colorado Springs automotive community. Since our transition in the summer of 2024, we’ve carried on that tradition, combining the trusted reputation we’ve built with modern techniques and advanced equipment.
Nestled against the backdrop of Pikes Peak and the Front Range, we also know how much Colorado drivers truly depend on their vehicles. Whether you’re commuting through Garden of the Gods, heading up I-25, or exploring the mountain passes, your engine’s reliability matters. And that’s exactly where we come in.
We Offer Professional Automotive Machine Services
Engines are at the heart of what we do. Our complete auto machine shop service covers every detail of your engine’s performance, from diagnostics to machining and custom builds. No matter the make, model, or size, we have the expertise and tools to get it right the first time.
- Complete block machine work: decking, bore and hone, align boring, align honing, and magnetic crack inspection
- Cylinder head machine work: resurfacing, valve jobs, and full assessments using industry-standard equipment
- Cleaning and inspection: block and cylinder head cleaning with evaluations based on factory specifications
- Custom machining: tailored to fit your engine’s exact needs, whether stock rebuild or performance upgrade
Custom Welding and Fabrication
While we’re best known for our engine machining, our capabilities extend far beyond. We also specialize in custom welding and fabrication. Whether you need a damaged part repaired, a bracket fabricated, or a complete custom solution built from scratch, our skilled technicians deliver precision and durability.
And between steep mountain grades, sudden weather shifts, and off-road adventures, Colorado Springs drivers often push their vehicles to the limit. That’s why our welding and fabrication services help ensure your components hold up to the demands of local driving conditions.
What Makes Us Different
There are plenty of shops in town, but Elite Engines and Machining stands out because of our commitment to detail and our reputation built over decades. Before we even put our new name on the building, we relied almost entirely on word-of-mouth referrals. That kind of trust isn’t given—it’s earned.
- Industry-standard machining: We use the same professional-grade machines trusted nationwide for cylinder head work and other services.
- Personalized service: As a locally owned shop, we treat every engine like it’s our own, not just another ticket.
- Full-service solutions: From simple machining to full rebuilds, welding, and fabrication, we’re a one-stop destination for Colorado Springs drivers.
- Decades of experience: With roots in the area that go back decades, we understand what local vehicles go through and how to keep them performing.

Amazing place. Got a John Deere 6068 head in with a broken exhaust manifold bolt. They were able to extract and and clean it in a couple days even tho they were pretty darn busy. The quality of work was great, and really affordable. Highly recommend
