Engine rebuilds are my forte.You would not believe how many engines I've rebuilt that the conversation on arrival is pretty much like this.Customer,how much to fix it?me,I won't know until I get into it.Them well it shouldn't need much it was just rebuilt. Of the engines I buIld each year about 25 percent are rebuilding other people's rebuilds. I would source my parts locally so I could return or exchange anything that doesn't fit correctly.Incorrect bearing clearances are the most common mistake second is pistons that are too tight in the bore.Check all clearances,then check them again.I ve been through three boxes of mains before until I got a set with clearances that were acceptable.Seriously everyone just shops price these days.All machine shops are not equal and all parts manufacturers are not equal.Just as the cheapest steak at the meat counter is usually not as good as the more costly steaks.The big difference is a tough steak is gone and forgotten in an hour.
