I asked for specifics on what it set it apart from a field overhaul, and other than "we get to zero time it", nothing special. Zero time sounds nice, but not a high weight factor for me. .
A reman is more indepth than an overhaul. The reman takes everything to factory new specs where an overhaul takes the tolerances to acceptable, but not new specs.
