Message	Don!'t get me wrong. I have at one point pulled an engine in anger in less than 3 hours. I was pissed because i installed "newly rebuilt" sport 500's at a customers insistance and the turbos started smoking withen 5 miles of install. Obviously the customer dodn't care that i had to do the work twice even though i had cautioned them about rebuilt turbos. I had to eat the time / labor twice thru no fault of mine. Yes things can be done quickly but that does nit necessarily mean that they will be done right. Harry Formerly yellowzxtt
