How Long Should a Complete Motor Build Take Realistically?

To answer your questions, it will be FI. AAM Comp kit (which happens to be a garbage kit, the only thing good was the turbos). After replacing many parts on the turbo kit the engine is getting rebuilt with new springs, pistons, rods, bearings, new hoses, machined adapters and plates. The builder is trying to also figure out how to keep away from the infamous turbo smoking problem with these garbage kits.

Time wise, depends on the shop, and MONEY. I've seen rebuilds from one month to over a year. Avg is around 4 months. If you have all of your parts, and willing to pay to jump line. You'll get done quicker.
