AED specifies different clearances than what you get going straight to Motor Machine.

Even with the exact same parts, the motors are not built/machined the same.

I still say having a motor built in California is too expensive. Labor rate is cheaper out of state, a place like Keith Craft in Arkansas and Bennett Racing in Alabama is going to be way cheaper, if you are going to build a serious race motor.
