RE: Cryogenic Treatment

Actually, they said they can do Tires as well, so I don't think rubber is
negatively affected.  I also wondered about having to dismantle the engine.
I'm going to drop them a line for some clarification.

Joel,
     I havent actually used cryogenic treatment so I might be wrong here,
but I dont think you could just drop your whole motor in liquid nitrogen
for several days. I think this would damage some parts in the motor eg:
rubber seals. I also wouldn't get an o-ring chain done for the same
reasons.
     My guess is you would have to completely dismantle the motor & get all
the individual metal parts treated. The quote for a whole motor can be
misleading but probably means to do all the parts from  a motor, rather
than adding up all the parts individually.
