Crate 360 vs DIY Built

If you can read and assemble a jig-saw puzzle, you can assemble your own engine, it's not that hard. Patients, attention to detail, the belief that there is no such thing as anything being too clean, understanding that there is an order of operations, just like math, and it's done.

I prefer to build my own, then if something goes wrong, the only place to point the finger is at myself, AND......when it goes right, it's one of the best feeling you'll ever have.
