I'm in Augusta, sounds like we're not too far apart!
Probably, I don't get many opportunities to build engines though so I wanted to have fun with it and build something with potential for further upgrades down the road which worked out well as now I'll be putting it in a car instead and gunning for more power vs low-speed torque/economy and longevity. Also the core I bought was high-mileage, completely disassembled and the parts sat since 1991 so what wasn't worn out was heavily rusted. All I ended up keeping was the block, crank and hardware.
