Engine builders

Step back, take a breath, relax and find a machinist that knows what they are doing. This engine won't be built in a day. Its hard to get a good, complete engine, designed for free isn't it?

Thanks for chiming in sir, So--- do you agree with my fear that this guy is not what he should be as a machinist?
He`s Had my engine for 3 months, I`m in no huge rush, but I feel he`s had it long enough.
I have read allot on your and others builds, thanks for the links.
I fully expect to be charged for design research, I know time is money even if it`s setting on the butt.
I did not expect that a compression increase would be an issue on a build, and running the numbers on a calculator was second nature and normal expected knowledge for a automotive machinist.
