No, having the guy come from the machine shop has nothing to do with the warranty from Hughes, but to me it was worth the $300.00 bucks for him to change out the springs on the heads, measure and build the push-rods, and the piece of mind that some one with more experience working on engines has looked it over. Also for him to be there on start up for the first time, for the cam brake in, and then install the center valve springs. I call it as cheap as I can get insurance.
