Yes it is. I wouldn't know two shits about sr swaps so I couldn't call it awesome or shitty.

Live and learn I guess, but it's hard to learn w/o experience... and that is not something I lack. I've learned from my mistakes over the past 20 or so SR swaps i've done. Everyone makes mistakes, especially the inexperienced... but it is what you learn from those mistakes is what counts.

just a sec ago you were saying how you would NEVER post a pic of a bay that looks as bad as the one patrick posted, then you go and post one that looks a thousand times worse. seems to me you just want to trash talk everyone thats not you, no matter how good something is.
and yeah I am glad I have no experience with sr swaps you can come watch the swap we are doing this weekend if you want

dude, i told you i'm not getting into it with you. You'll learn in time. You can say whatever you want about whatever you want... i'm cool with it. I wasn't trying to be an ass in my previous post. I was just pointing out that maybe instead of saying i don't know what i'm doing you could actually learn something from someone who has a lot more experience with the subject. But, if you don't that's fine with me too. I never said you have NO experience.

Post a pic when your done, if it's clean i'll give you props. It's not hard to make an engine bay clean. The messiest part of any (swapped) engine bay is generally the wiring. And most people are to lazy to take the time to make it fit right, or don't have the patience for it, or just don't know how. All it takes is patience.

look I aint tryin to get in a 20 page argument with you again...but do you have more experience then chris with sr swaps?
When I say experience I mean number of swaps done, years that you have been doing it, and custom work on swaps...i.e welding ect?

I dont think you do. and thats what he is trying to say.

where the hell did I say you dont know what your doing, why do you guys always want to put words in my mouth.
I am just pointing out the fact that you wanted to be an ass about the bay patrick posted, saying and I quote "I would NEVER post a pic of a swap that looks that bad" yet you go and post one worse.

and who the hell was talking to you terry? who the hell said I had more experience, or knew more about sr swaps?? NOBODY dumb fuck, stop trying to start shit.
someone posted that "I" have no experience with sr's

and sorry I dont need to post pics, cuz I dont need your approval. when the custumer drives away happy, thats all I care for
