<<<Ah yes and then there is the famous book or wrench time where we will

Really?
Chris you had best go grab a Snap On or Mac guy, load up with 20, 30
grand worth of tools and get into some wrenching for a living.

You'll soon find the Mitchell's book is more than fair, and if you have
just average mechanical aptitude you'll soon starve.
Or be eating a bunch of peanut butter and
jelly on cracker's for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Let me give you a for instance.

If my memory serves me right a type 2 air cooled Bus pays 8 hours to R&R
both the heads.

There is no way on this earth that this job can get done in this amount
of time.

So who's getting hosed?

The customer?

I think not.

You best try walking the walk prior to talking the talk.

You don't have a clue.
