Help me understand rebuild vs crate?

it comes down to “do it yourself” or pay someone else to do it. That is the real decision.

other than if something goes south on your build, or during break-in, or at any point in the next 30 months.... plus whats a shop charge to dyno a homebrewed creation these days? $500+ ? that's a lot of value added IMO.
