Why Six Gun

Not a general
repair shop,
a specialist team.

Patrick and the crew live inside, and specialize in platforms instead of dabbling in everything. Swaps, rebuilds, valvetrain work, and performance upgrades.

You talk directly to the people turning the wrenches. Timelines get quoted honestly and the work gets finished when we said it would.

In their words

Customers drive
a long way for this

  • I drove over 400 miles to meet Patrick and his men and when I left his shop the first time I knew these were the men I wanted to work on my 04 Cummins. Patrick said it would take two days, they finished in less than 2 days.

    Vince D.
  • These guys are the real deal professionals on anything Cummins related. They did my Hamilton flat tappet and cam conversion within a day and a half and flawlessly!

    Michael T.
  • Hands down best shop I've dealt with regarding Cummins engines. Patrick got me taken care of when I was in a pinch and earned 100% of my business in the future.

    Walker W.
  • Patrick doesn't nickel and dime you, is always super transparent and stands by his shop's work. If you can't find a good mechanic give this shop a call.

    Phillip W.
  • Had a new motor built for me in less than a week, did everything we wanted to the motor, stands behind his work.

    Gabriel G.
  • They built an amazing motor. We had other issues with the truck that were not related to their service, and they stuck with us and helped us figure it out.
