Advice for all you car people!

Funny thing: Last winter when I was building the engine to swap into my barracuda, my wife asked " Where did you learn all this?"

Told her I guess I was just born with it.

Never had any formal schooling on mechanics. Did go to Vo-tech in high school for machine shop though.

Yup me too. You know the best thing I learned from that old instructor we had? ...and I quote "If somethin's hard to do, you're doin somethin wrong." That right there has served me better than anything I've ever learned anywhere. That doesn't mean it's always gonna be easy. It just means if something is unduly difficult, you're probably goin about it the "wrong way".
