The cleaning, prepping, disassembly, and porting takes roughly 11 hours. It was taking close to 20 before, but we upgraded a lot of our tools this year, so it made it go much quicker. The 11 hours is with 2 people working on it. One on thetop half and one on the bottom half.

I'd expect to see 15-20 HP, possibly more.
