Engine Assembler vs. Engine Builders

[Cashburn]

Did the PO cut costs by installing his own clutch and flywheel? That's the likely culprit. There's a group that makes all decisions based on perceived costs alone... he could have been a member.

Assembler v. Builder? I profess to be neither, that's why I won't do it. I'm sure you were referring more to those who do it professionally, but once I have "gathered" some of the components I'll want to use, along with a clear idea of what I want the engine to do for me, I'll turn it over to (hopefully) a thoroughly competent pro.
