For future engine swaps, do all the ground work then take the front wheels off and set the disks on 2x4's or lower control arms on 6x6's, a lot easier on the belly and pulling the motor closer to the ground makes it easier peasier

Nice work guys & once again, great content!👍👍. Your mention of resetting the oil light 🤣... I actually had a friend that thought when it said “0% Oil Life Left”, you _literally_ had *NO* oil in the engine & were supposed to add more! 🤣😂🤣 I never laughed so hard in my life!

Keep the you tube videos coming. I love watching you guys work and you guys are really funny too. I have been working at a Chevy dealership as a technician for twenty years and I feel from a set of rafters helping a buddy build a shop when I was in my early twenties and I never went to a dr for it and I was down for a Couple of months but I got back to work but now I’m in my middle 40s and that injury has made it impossible for me to stand for any amount of time. I had to quit working and I have all of my equipment stuffed into a small garage-shed. But what I enjoy is watching you guys work together and make jokes and have fun while your working and that reminds me of when I was able to do that. Keep up the good work and awesome videos!!!

I'm by no means a mechanic, but I did see somewhere that before removing the hood (or doors, too, I guess), for perfect alignment when reinstalling them, you can drill a hole through the bracket & hood/door hinge such that you can later place a punch in the hole to have it line up perfectly - no rejiggering necessary.
