Successful engine builds or rebuilds are rare according to experiences posted here. Just saying.

All depends on what you consider "built."

If "built" means exhaust and intake -- for sure. If "built" means internal engine work like cylinder heads,cylinders, pistons, and cranks to fix damage the success rate plummets..

Other than installing AP2 engine valve retainers in an AP1 engine this is as strong as the engine will ever be. OEM exceeds aftermarket for strength and reliability.

Thank you! Every thread in here you can find Chuck speaking to users in a very condescending manner. Sounds fun at parties.
