So what else is new? I don't know how many times I have replaced the HD on someone else's truck. Takes about 4-6hrs depending on what tools you got and what type of "non-alcoholic" beverages are around.....

You guys are just freakin' hilarious... about as funny as a rubber crutch. Oh, no worries, I'm so good at taking the head off now I can go to the tool box and get the tools required and never have to walk back across the shop for another one. I really have no idea how bad it is, either way between fire rings and a new HG, it's going to cost $200 just to peel the lid back and take a looksee, it's the holes in the pistons or any other debauchery that I'm worried I'll find. That "little" turbo was flat puttin the psi through the motor on that last pass, so much that I believe this sums it up...

I need to get this shirt.

I'll host it but the closest thing to a shop I have is the chat floor in the center of my barn. I do have plenty of tools and a engine hoist for the odd head gasket. And I have a great bon fire area. As well as plenty of room for trucks and campers or tents if anyone needs to camp over. I'm also surrounded by several thousand acres of National Forest.

You'd host it at the local strip club, I know you.

Sounds pretty. If it gets much cooler in the evenings we'll be wrenching on trucks in the barn in our coats...
