I tried very hard to be truthful and objective, without being offensive. To peg at 11 on the BS seems a bit biased. I'm surprised.

Top builders on this forum have said they fights oil leaks on FE engines. I think oil leaks are a very common problem on the FE. Do you dispute that?

The FE guys on this forum almost always advice not to let just any shop build your FE no matter how good the shop. The shop has to specialize in FE or they will likely screw something up. Building an FE yourself is highly discouraged by the experts around here. Why is this? The FE is a very complicated design, where the SB Ford is much simpler, as well as the 385 series engines (just about any engine for that matter). Do you dispute this?
