avoiding hot tank fees

you guys would understand where i am coming from if you were in college.

I built my first engine ever from scratch while in college at SUNY Oswego. I don't understand where you are coming from.

I remember beam polishing my rods in my fraternity house room. Yet saved up for ARP waveloc bolts and had them shot peened at Oswego Marine.

Like said, there are places and ways to save. Hot tanking isn't one of them.
