Depends on who built it, the parts used, etc... Take it for a ride and see how it handles mid throttle driving. Pay attention to what it does with light pedal movements in traffic type driving. If the car drives smooth under these conditions then you can figure the owner either knew what he was doing or the person that does his work knew what they were doing. This is not an end all, be all solution. If you have the skills and tools check the compression.
