Who can rebuild their own engine??

Aside from machine work, who can rebuild their engine start to finish with little to no help...I mean pull it out, rebuild it, put it back in and drive. I cant, nor would I try.....

I can, but it's not fair. 60's muscle engines are pretty fucking simple

Done it more times than a care to remember. Now the ol' man pays someone else to bust their ass.

Very true. A day after I got finished rebuilding my 3rd engine for my lincoln, a drunk driver wiped out all my hard work.

I've rebuilt the motors in the 2 Mustangs I have owned. My wife helped remove/reinstall the 2nd engine.
