don't you pay people to do all your work?
It depends what work is getting done. I do my own suspension and brake work because I go through it so much at the track. Motor work is different. I go through a motor every few years. I would rather have someone who has built dozens of the same motor machine and assemble it than do it myself. 12 years ago (wow) when I was rolling my Procharged GT I did some motor assembly (top end), but with a parts bill of $12K (current build) I have to know it will last. Plus I really don't have time, but I do have money. That's why I went to college.

This concludes the Baddassc6 public service announcement. Kids stay in school!
