1) XKE motor complete rebuild. Surprisingly simple, your basic Ford inline-six without the complexity. Setting up the cylinder head and adjusting the valves was a little fiddley.

2) Field striping a Hewland gearbox in a howling dust storm in the dark at Willow Springs. Prolly won't volunteer for that again.

3) Replacing bent valves in the Formula Ford between morning practice and afternoon race. Simple task, big time constraint. 112 degrees F at Riverside in August.
