Quick mean i'm fast and work non stop, van don't stay long for nothing in or
beside the shop.

That job was a complete re-seal of the core, heads, pistons (rings gap),
parts cleaned, complete sandblast of most parts around the engine, painted.

Like all the job i do. Something like that:

I said 28, that include the 1.5 to 2 hours of road test and running around
for some rare 2.0L parts.

That about 9 to 10 hours per days.

It's not only the engine itself but everything aroung, it's as important. A
leaky FI system can ruined and engine job.

Yea, it may be a bit more than an average top-end... but you get way more
security.
