Why does it look so simple when someone with talent does it? |

Hazet. I had one until I sold off the shop stuff. Let it go by accident .................. Difficult to use on a 356.

Thanks. All of the shit I work on requires the use of that type. I need to find one. It would be worth the money.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvfz5s11NOc...player_embedded Why does it look so simple when someone with talent does it? I think most talent equals experience. I can built a bicycle wheel from scratch in about 45 minutes and true it up perfectly but 500+ wheels ago I didn't have the same skill level. It's always impressive to see someone with skill and talent |

Looks easy but there was a whole poop load of prep that wasn't shown it that vid.
My engine is similar, but it will have webers. One odd thing is it never shows the oil cooler, I'm guessing with that early style shroud they plan to just run a front cooler? I wish that banner would disappear. |

Nice find! Damn I was waiting for a horsepower number to appear.
They definitely make it look simple to build, there is ALOT that more that goes on in the background... Wayne's book tells the whole story. |

I know I lent them to Joe to use, and I think you used them on your bus, or maybe one of the iterations of my cars engine. Zach |

Wayne's book tells the whole story. Everything is easy till you actually do it. Everything is easy the "second" time you do it! Unless you have short term memory loss in which case every time becomes the first time ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |
