    Well, Torvik messed it up, but i had a handful of guys going for a bit. That was funny. Torvik didn't know i wanted to draw that out as long as possible and let my occupation be known. Oh well.

    I LOVE doing taco timing covers. Even with warranty i will profit. This one is cp and the book calls for 10.6 hrs. Ill take that for a half days labor. I used to be able to bang them out in 4 hours flat. Now we don't to them as often do this one will likely take me about 5 hours total.

    As Jason said, they aren't hard to get out. I just did them with my air hammer so I didn't risk slipping and bashing my lock-outs (or my hand) with a BFH. But sure, if you want to come over I can knock them out for you. It doesn't take long to do them. Don't even need to bring me lunch. You really hooked me up on Mod Day so I'll be happy to return the favor. :cool:

    A ball joint press would work even better...If you can get it in there. Although, come to think of it, it shouldn't be a problem for Nam since I don't think he has dust covers anymore after the spindle change.

    Still think this is the easiest way... :D

    I have now received 2 messages from people on FB regarding the "spark plugs". I cant believe some people are taking it so literal.

    I just added to it with this little gem:

    "So I just checked and apparently the "write up" I saw on TW was in fact a bad idea. It was titled "How NOT to change your spark plugs". Dang, guess I will be doing some research tonight. Gotta figure out how to put those engine covers back on top. I think the hard part will be how to get the belt back on the right way with the maze it was in."

    I posted 2 pictures in the FB TW page with an engine I am resealing the timing cover on. Commented that I was trying to figure out how to get to the spark plugs. Most people know its a joke and a few are taking it serious.
