Help with engine swap/ swap day
 
I'm sure enough people on here have done swaps in the past the question is can anyone help me do mine I've seen people on here make a swap day at their house and a bunch of people come chill drink bear and swap the engine so for thoes who don't know I have my own shop I just don't swap lol but there will be an engine hoist and all the tools needed I just need some people for a guide as this engine is coming out of an ek with the swap. So I'm not setting a day yet I'm more so seeing who is willing and hopefully we can even make this a ti meet as there's plenty of room here let me know guys thanks

Hm we should set a stupid time to get it done. Let's say...4h? Haha could be done. Plus hoping for power tools? Then less :O

All hands on deck boys!

Bahahaha hammering out a ball joint with a 2.5lbs hammer after realising that the ball joint press tool doesn't fit on honda hub...most definitely deserves a turtle noise.
