That's the best advice so far. Put your money into the hardware components and it will stay together longer. That and the bearings. Meticulous assembly (read "cleanliness") will also go a long way for engine longevity. So long as all the clearances and torque specs are within tolerance....it's sticking to the fundamentals that works.
