I hope you did not rely on the review of BLI's SD-40-2 which is clearly a substandard engine by anyone's assessment. Lately the reviews have been written so as to not offend the manufacturers so the advertising does not get pulled. Rick

Aside from that I am curious, what did you see that indicated messy and shoddily thrown together?

Rick Juding from the comments made on Atlas, there's some major disappointments on MR's review of the BLI. That's why I also consider forum feed backs.
