And the unfortunate lack of an economy of scale.

Re: Reassembling a Lycoming IO-360

The engine assembly is the cheapest part of the whole deal, it's the yellow-tagging / replacing of the parts that's expensive. That's why to me it makes sense to have an engine professional do the assembly. You're not gonna pay all that much for his expertise & experience.
