I could not agree more with Art's statement. I'm a pretty decent wrench and have rebuilt plenty of engines in my life, but when it comes to really extracting the maxium potential and reliability of an engine, there's a lot to be said for utilizing the experience of someone who rebuilds more engines in a week than I do in a year. As Rob Muzzy likes to say, "The reason some tuners stand head and shoulders above others is because they're standing on a pile of broken parts."
