Copied this off of the 'cheap engine' thread:
QUOTE(Jake Raby @ Sep 30 2004, 04:36 PM) You only need a set of craftsman tools and a 10 dollar torque wrench to do the job- You ain't doing that with a 911 engine and you won't do a six conversion on your dining room table if you want, but you can assemble this engine there if you want! Reminded me of back in college. I visited a school mate and his wife at their apartment. I walk in the place and in the middle of the floor is a half torn down VW engine. My first reaction was 'whoa Syd, what does Marsha think about this?' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) This couple isn't trailer trash types that you would expect this kind of thing. It was just that a job needed to be done and the aprtment living room was the best place to do it. BTW, These folks are still my best friends and Syd is the PO of my 914. So, where have you rebuilt an engine? -Jeff |

QUOTE(blaize @ Oct 1 2004, 08:28 PM) spare engine (came with the car) on the floor in the bedroom. mind you I was in college so the "bed" was just a mattress on the floor with a spare hood for a honda as the headboard. So how did your evening romances go? "Excuse the engine on the floor and the oil smell, the bed is right over here." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif) These stories are great. The things you can get away with when you are young. -Jeff |
