Its just that some engines are better than others as some will have fractionaly lighter parts, thats just the way it is. Its luck of the draw but all David has done is to turn his engine from a slower one with slightly heavier parts into one of the better engines.

I dont see the problem with that, as someone could go out tomorrow and buy an engine thats never been apart before that has a lighter crank than his but it would still be a standard engine.

But someone elses could have come out of the factory with poorer flowing heads due to factory tolerances, which wll cause the engine to run out of balance
So where does this line of acceptance get drawn ? is it when everybody can pay out to have there engine Blue printed to factory spec

As for reliability One blow up in 4 seasons under the No modification rule would suggest that as they come from the factory they are pretty reliable
