In all fairness to the shop, I would guess they did all of their measuring to parts off the engine. I'm not sure how a crank is balanced, but I doubt if you can balance it while it is in the engine.

I agree with the others about the extra fuel filter. Could be the DPO thought there was oil being sucked up and wanted to see it through the clear filter? As for the steering rack boots. I would sto

You aren't straining your stock engine at 3500 to 4500 rpm, it's at the peak of the power range. I try to keep my rpms in that range when pulling a hill or accelerating. Anything below 2500 or 2000

Rebuilding the clutch m/c is pretty simple as there are few moving parts and it's pretty easy to see what to do when you take it apart. The hardest part is taking the m/c out and putting it back in.
