I am in the process of fitting out and installing a new engine in my AC
Westy.  Fortunately I didn't have to do the engine rebuild myself (thanks
Boston Bob) but I am confident that it would have taken me more than 28
hours to do the full job.  After about to 10 hours I haven't even gotten to
the assembly stage.  I have compliled lists of parts and ordered them,
cleaned and painted, etc.  If you are going to get it right it takes a lot
of time on a crusty old AC engine.

With my work on computers I often work 28 hrs. in two days and 28 hours in
three day almost always happens and it sounds like Ben works late like I do.

It is interesting that you would question the time that Ben quoted.
Although I only know him through his posts to this list and his website, I
have a lot of confidence in his integrity.
