TonyK,
Quite all right. I probably took the words right out of Steve M's mouth anyway.
When prize money is at stake, cubic dollars tend to flow into an engine to squeeze every last ounce of HP, torque and engine longevity. That is why (though not always) a pcar engine "rebuild" can cost $3000, $10,000 or $20,000. This is not to imply that you can't rebuild one for $3000. It depends on the overall plan, what you need to farm out and what you can/are willing to do yourself.
Your tech's technique of finding cylinder volume sounds interesting. Can you describe this tool? I assume this works on an already built engine. BTW, have fun with your recent rebuild.
