That is not a rebuild in my book.

Sections 10 thru 12 in a Kohler Service Manual has the needed infomation to rebuild a motor the right way. I would ask some questions on how the motor was rebuilt.
Nor anyone else Merk. That doesn't even qualify as an overhaul. The biggest shame is talking to or selling something to a person that would call that a rebuild and you actually do rebuilds and overhauls. They don't even know what you are talking about and can't appreciate what is involved.
