Weddle, so your saying you don't think builders should be able to charge for the labor they put into an engine? You spend way more time than most builders I know of. Most spend 8-10 hours start to finish. If you charged even $25 per hour, that adds up pretty quick. And considering "most" machine shops get $75-$150 per hour depending on the shop, kart engine builders are not charging enough. Motorcycle, Small Engine, Automotive, and diesel mechanics ALL charge more per hour than kart engine builders.
Just because you are loaded with money, doesn't mean these guys shouldn't make a living also.
