RE: Who here has done
Ok guys...my mechanic is not starting to diss me BUT he is starting to not have "time" right now. He says he has a lot of cars, I've noticed he is saying he is doing 347, 351, blowers..blah blah blah...
Well If any of you has been paying attention to my threads I have been getting parts that has just been laying around in my garage! Parts that he has suggested, parts that I know works and especially parts that you guys have mentioned on here....
To make a long story short...IM TIRED OF WAITING! I almost feel like just doing it myself:
1. I get the satisfaction of doing it (but I have no time)
2. I wont have to pay him
3. At least will learn along the process.
What are your thoughts, how difficult is this to do? I'm not very technical savvy....

RE: Who here has done
when you say it's not hard? How long do you think it will take for an average/non mechanic experience to do this stuff? Tools, I have basic screw drivers, wrenches, what else do you think I will need?

Definentally do it your self, don't pay your *** hole mechanic to do that ****. It's not hard, it just takes time and tools.
