have to do is protect your reputation with quality work and consistently
build winners.
For those that may not know, all out race engines come with no warranty.

It has been proven that 4.000 bores or larger do not necessarily cause overheating as the primary source
I just do not subscribe to this over overbore theory
However I have stopped doing any rebuilding and machine work unless it is done to my specifications ie oiling system, bearing setups, and part preparation including the final assembly.
