Diesel Service in Arkansas
Here’s what you should know if you’re looking for diesel service in the Central Arkansas region:
- Arkansas has one of the highest per-capita rates of diesel truck ownership in the South.
- Hot summers and heavy towing increase strain on cooling, transmission, and fuel systems.
- Central Arkansas roads and highways see more trailers per mile than most nearby states.
- Diesel performance tuning is legal in Arkansas, but must comply with emissions guidelines if registered in certain counties.
- Many national diesel chains do not offer custom tuning or side-by-side builds — Say When Motorsports does.
- Shops with true Cummins/Duramax/Power Stroke experience are limited outside of Little Rock metro.
Questions We Hear from Arkansas Diesel Owners
Looking for answers before you bring your rig or build to Say When? Here are some common questions we get from fellow drivers and truck owners:
Can you work on my truck if it’s deleted or tuned already?
Yes — we’ve seen it all. Bring it in and we’ll take a look.
Do you install crate or used engines?
Absolutely. We do engine installs (not rebuilds) and can help you source or verify quality.
How long will my truck be in the shop?
Absolutely. We do engine installs (but not rebuilds) and can help you source or verify quality.
Do I need to make an appointment?
Appointments are recommended, especially for big jobs — but we’ll always try to fit you in.
Can I talk directly with the owner or mechanic?
Yes. You’ll deal directly with Nick Shuffield, the owner and lead mechanic, not just a service writer behind a desk.
Do you work on gasoline trucks too?
Yes — we handle general American truck repair for Ford, Chevy, and Dodge regardless of fuel type.
Do you offer fleet service for multiple trucks?
Yes — we service and maintain fleet diesels for contractors, service companies, and small businesses across the area.
No Nonsense. No Shortcuts. Just Real Diesel Work.
