Rebuilt engines

Car  Renaultsport Clio 182
My motor had to have a new head gasket this week because of an external oil leak, it was done under warranty by a main dealer.

Will the engine be not as strong in any way now?

I have always steered clear of rebuilt engines in the past, and am dubious as to if Reno dealers can get all the tolerances right again on a high revving unit like that in the 182.

Am I worried about nothing?
 
theres not really an awful lot to get wrong to be fair, if it was a forumla one engine possibly but if all they have changed is the headgasket and possibly skimmed the head a tad theres not really anything to do wrong
(unless they let an idiot do it)
