Most highly tuned, stressed out motors require a rebuild afterwards tho
but then, 73 bhp from 633 cc isn't alot anyway (3800cc divided by 6)
What i don't understand is why can't you get 50bhp from 500cc? Ie 300bhp from a 3ltr

(that seems to be the general concensuss in the Alfa world

)
I have no doubt that Dawie is a clever bloke, but 3.8 is BIG motor, anyone could expect that sort of power output....
