767Jockey - you have gotten a lot of good advise. The books that were listed to read, by someone. is a must. I would recomend you studdy them over and over before and durring your build.
All engines have marginal designed things about them (some more than others and FEs have a lot). To have a sucessful build you need to understand the good, the bad, and the ugly about the engine you are building. When you read a book you can learn what many others found out the hard and expensive way.
I have never built a FE, but I wouldn't hesitate to, and I may someday. I assume you are an aircraft mechanic, so you are familiar with tools and how things work. All you have left to do is learn the particulars of the FE.
