    It's not a movie it's a documentary before the invention of the fun police and political correctness.
    The final version had some scenes pulled, great shame, they set out to affend every one and they nearly succeeded. call me sick but for me it was one funniest movies of all time.

    Yes! I stand corrected.

    the storage is mega expensive and the rebuild has been thrown in for free, not including the parts and few blow jobs to lubricate the whole process.

    Fitted LED globes to the little red lights in the doors that come on when the doors open.

    Now the only globes that aren't LED are the indicators on the front guards....but I have the globes ready to go when I'm not too lazy.

    LOL. :)

    I've thought about changing some lamps to LEDs (internal reading and cabin lamps) but don't know much about it to be honest.

    Even though they wouldn't be illuminated for any length of time, I'm a bit put off my the heat they generate. Is that a real concern or not?

    I think you have it the wrong way around. LEDs run stone cold.

    They only generate heat in proportion to their power use, in this case far lower than a filament. Headlights need big heat sinks, but put out a lot of light.

    Two months of prep and planning for a 5 minute engine pull. If I only would have remembered to drain the coolant from the block, it would have been perfect.

    Lol, very good.

    How long does it really take to take the engine out of a 308?
