I stated several times in my build topic that Jake's engine rebuild will not make sense to anyone's accountant 😁 . But to an enthusiast it makes sense . You get an engine that all weak spots have been corrected with the bonus of more hp and torque .

I have been around the shop enough to know you should plan a budget of 25k - 35k for a turn key build . Is it worth it ? Their backlog say's it is to some folks myself included . If you have the $$$ it can be a rewarding experience . Listening to his engine's sing on the chassis dyno is a glorious experience .
