Had a great time and met a good bunch of people. Thank You Tony, it was well worth it.

I think I'm good on Cheese Steaks for a while though.

Thanks Tony! And thanks to our special guest Fred (faapgar) for popping in.
Lots of fun and an invaluable experience. I am now confident that I can rebuild my motor when the time comes - which, hopefully, is never.

Tony the magic teacher
 
It was great fun to watch Tony at work.He made sure every student had a hands on moment.They all removed a rocker shaft then the heads.They removed piston pins with Tonys great homemade tools.They split the case and each student lifted the crank and intermediate shaft will oil pump in and out.They all lifted the case half then reinstalled it with his specials tools.Lack of knowledge breeds fear.Tonys teaching method removes that fear.Kudos to Tony.Also all the students were very attentive and striving to learn.To say the least I was impressed with his passion.I was glad to offer a few tidbits to aid him.Fred

I'm very interested in the April 2022 class if it happens and there is space. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread!

Nditiz1 10-05-2021 05:12 AM

I'm in for the April 2022 as well.

JHG 10-05-2021 05:22 AM

I would be another willing pupil for April 2022 (or any other month) as well. Thank you.

Gretz 10-05-2021 08:04 AM

I would probably come back for a refresher next year as well!

Great initiative. Being in Belgium, it's kind of unrealistic to attend. Suggestion: capture the 2 days on video, then edit it, then sell it. I am pretty sure there are a vast amount of enthousiasts willing to pay, to start with myself ;)

I’m in for April 2022 as well IF the US-Canada border opens.

Tony,

I am interested in April 2022 as well, you still have my payment from last year.

Looks like I will have to rebuild my 3.0 as I found wear on my cams when doing a valve adjustment.
