Was it a home built engine or from a shop?

If Home built: Be cautious as some people don't have that great of quality control experience when it comes to building an engine. Let alone one with a list of "top shelf" parts. Not trying to say this guy doesn't know how to build an engine, just that they're out there. This guy could be an expert or a novice.

If Shop built: Get the shop's information, receipts, etc. All the pertinent information you'd need if something comes up. Again, research the builder's/shop's reputation for a good idea of their quality.

You could put $10,000 in parts into an engine, but if it ain't built with proper tolerances, torque specs, and machining, you're gonna be wasting money.
