I was told I was full of **** once saying you don't have to remove the intake on a LSx motor. Guy said he' been building engines for years and never heard of it. Needless to say he about fucked up my buddy's SSS trying to do a cam swap.

haha funny ****! listen to this. he is in the process of puttin in a "350" in his supra. when he first starting putting it together he told me it was a 305 and i told him why not a 350. he said it woudnt fit! 350s are so much bigger than 305s. cant believe this guy. that was a year ago right before i quit. when i came back i asked him about his supra and he told me he was puttin a 350 in it. he told me whenever he finishes putting his 350 in his supra it will eat a zr1s ***.

This guy's a total tool...if a 350 is bigger than a 305 just imagine how much bigger a 454 is than a 396

and hes a professional welder but almost every weld he has welded has broken and he blames it on everything else possible except for his weld. He must suck real good to have his job still cause the boss treats him like a son

This sort of sounds like a truck driver who's been driving for a long time. Then when his truck is having problems then all of a sudden he can tell you the problem, what the fix should be. Then afterwords tells you that he was a mechanic for a few years before starting to drive. When I'd be all done he'll ask what did you fix on it, I'll tell him and he looks supprised that he got it wrong but wont admit it.

as much as I would like to just UNLOAD my demotivation folder on this thread I will leave it at this....
"Mechanics" are different from "Technicians", my dad has told me this all my life... why? because "Technicians" have gone to school, and still are ACTIVELY LEARNING and going to SCHOOL. "Mechanics" will take a UTI course and think they're hot **** and go into the field will all the sunshine in the world up their ***. Whats UTI stand for children? UnTrained Idiots

stupidity is funny stuff.


Quick Reply: so called "mechanic" at my work.
