Just completed the class this last Thursday and Friday with a great group of guys. It is immediately apparent Tony spent a great deal of time setting up the room, his tools etc so it would be effective for learning.

The entire two days is hands on breaking down the engine, and then building it back up. He strongly encourages everybody to participate and get wrench time. Tony is exceptionally creative in making his own low cost tools used for the build and he happily shares this with his students.

Being a visual learner, the class really cleared up virtually all the questions I had on the build process. One of the most valuable things I learned was on cam timing. He was using the digital cam timing gauge that one of the Pelican members designed and sold on the forum. I purchased it some time ago but had no clue how to use it going in, but now feel very confident on the procedures for using it.

All of the guys/students were great and we had a lot of fun taking turns, telling stories and learning about the inner workings of these engines.

In closing, I just wanted to say a HUGE Thank You... to Tony for all the effort he puts into this course. You can tell this is his passion and he wants to share it with other enthusiasts.
