Not worth it IMO. You can build a better engine with better parts for less money.

Save your money. That's about all I have to say about that.

A Spoon crate engine is basically a completely stock engine with a nice balancing job. Don't bother.

The spoon engines are built for endurance, not all out power. Not much different than stock part wise, spool oil pump, maybe more. Not worth it.

I would highly suggest buying a crate of plastic spoons instead.

On a usefullness-to-price scale, the crate of spoons does have a considerable advantage. :goodjob:
