    Everyone is getting emotion about father son stuff, rebuilding motors and working on muscle cars, and I'm over here thinking darn we were really poor growing up. I remember fishing with my Dad, but working on cars made him so mad, no shop, middle of winter trying to get his work truck fixed in the driveway circa, early 1990's. Holding the light for him was without a doubt the highest pressure job I have ever had lol.

      I used to work on my own cars as a teen in the late 60s. My Dad did’t work on cars but my brother in law and his brothers were Chevy guys and mentored me. They were the local hot rods and always into racing around. The one that was the worst offender went to work in the State trooper garage at about 30 and retired from there. I used to kid him that they just wanted to keep an eye on him. RIP Johnny Reb.

      Thats awesome, its something that you will never forget but i hope he was making you pay for the parts to rebuild them!! It'll make a kid think twice before red-lining a motor if their minimum wage earnings are having to buy parts. It doesn't hurt kids feelings at all when daddy is forking out the dough.

I was fortunate enough to have Worked Both My Older Sons & Both now are Operating/ Foreman’s for Utility Companies Local, Very Proud of them. Thinking the hot summers would deter them from wanting to be in the field, but then the skid loader and wheel loader and much like me first time operating an excavator they knew what they wanted to do the same decision I made 30+ years ago.

      Empty nesting is tough. Ive felt your pain. Just know it gets easier. Our 'little girl' calls us a few times every week and thats a blessing.
      Our one and only daughter moved out in 2012 when she was 20. She was super mature and independent at a very young age. She was motivated enough to refuse all our college money, then earn 2 degrees in 10 years, debt free, owned small businesses and got an engineering job. She ignored woke crap and partying. Recently, she and her husband gave us our first grand daughter!! She never gave up on her dreams.
      Youve got to let them go and live their lives. When we do our job as parents, they make us proud! I mean this in the best possible way. It sounds like youve raised your boys with a hard work ethic. Thats one of the most important things. Ive worked hard with my hands all my life as a machinist. Now Im retired and turn wrenches in a busy bike shop. Im not going to stop working until Im unable. I love this work.
      I tell people with small children all the time, "Enjoy them while you've got them. Life is so short"
      May God bless your family!

    I must say I don't know diddly about LS Engines, but the front side of a small block chevy #3 rod is different from the front side of a #4 rod, as they have a little "shelf that drings oil up from the pan to lube the sides of crank and rod, so placing a 3 rod in 4's position puts the chamfer and the "shelf" against the other rod not against the side throw of the crank and so on. Did I make my self clear, it's hard to explain, but easier to show someone. I only write this because your engines that you work on don't last much longer than your transmissions.

    Chasing girls is where the grandkids come from. Interesting. I don't know much about the newer engines. We did those old Buick V6, 327, and 350. I was a kid learning then. Set me up with a lifetime of rebuilding all kinds of stuff. We did a lot of Jeep mods. I got my hot-rod friends interested in off-road and they never went back to street. Love those old Chevy trucks though. I had a 1976 GMC C20 LB 350. Can't remember the rear end, but it was high. It's weird looking back and wishing I still had all that stuff, but remembering why I sold it. I keep trucks for 20 years.

    Nice to see you usually having a team…❤❤❤
