I was at the Wrenchfest where I overheard the seemingly outlandish plan to "borrow an engine until I can have my worn out one rebuilt".
That is not normal behavior for most people. That requires a lot of extra work to pull an engine, install a borrowed engine, pull that engine, then install the restored engine.
We are not a "normal" bunch. We do work for no good reason other than to keep these gems on the road no matter if it may make no sense to a sensible man.
You gotta love this bunch.
