Then I will come down and show you how to use it properly

All the major parts get taken off as complete as possible and laid out on the floor. The small body ground screws get masking taped to the eyelets on the ground wires so they are not bagged. Body shims get taped together and write on them where they go.
I use Lukes method.
I can probably still take every single nut and bolt out of a C5 Corvette and tell you exactly where each one goes, and it's torque spec.

I'm just wondering if their will be a vats ignition problem since i will be using his ignition and key.
As long as you keep your VATS module it will be no problem. My suggestion would be to measure the resistance of the VATS chip in the key. Then go to radio shack and buy the proper resistor and install it in the connector that the ign switch plugs into.
VATS bypassed. Never have a problem with it. If you leave it working, it WILL eventually leave you stranded.

Dont I have that? I think I do
Out of curiosity do you view what you see as a lack of ambition in me as a bad thing Undoubtedly Im a hard worker, since thats what I want to do in life
Im gonna pull the white flag on this one and chalk it up to just being from completely different areas, upbringing, culture and views. Because Ive said the same thing to people around here and it makes sense to a lot Theres that foreigner feeling again lol
Have a happy thanksgiving everyone Time for me to hit the road
You are a strange person.
Want my honest opinion?
Before you set yourself into any particular goals or dreams, TRAVEL. Get out and see what it's like in different states and different cities. Have an open mind when you travel. Don't sell yourself short. If, after you have seen different places and what different lifestyles are like, you still feel the same, then by all means, enjoy. But what if you settle into your "dream" then realize 15 years later that it is not what you really wanted all along.

I will take it one step further.. Even get out of America.. There is so much to see and do outside the states.
America is great, but we are pretty "young" and lack history comparatively.
Difference is, Im only gonna remember where 50% of those bolts came from. After that its guess and check

I went to Canada once
Seriously though,I would love to travel and see different cultures. Im always interested to see what other people views and beliefs are. Very very rarely would I look down on someone just because they dont think the same way as me.
That being said, if I never leave Im not gonna feel like Im missing out. As for the always wanting to get to the next level thing.. I just dont have it, or want it. You guys will never know what it feels like to be 100% satisfied.. To me thats kind of sad. (from my view, not bashing yours) Just different
Nathan, as for "blaming" WI for my views. Im not blaming really. I just dont know what else it would be since my thought process is actually pretty common around here, but obviously way different than other part of the US. And honestly to say Wisconsin views is too broad lol. For all I know it might just be a 100 mile radius around me. Ive never lived outside of that area so I have no idea. Hell, it could just be the views of my town
In the end, you gotta do what makes YOU happy. Thats whats important IMO
On another note, I had a whole shop to myself tonight and it was pretty nice. Turned on the radio, fired up the wood stove and took a few bits off the cummins till I got stuck, then sat down and read the manual and matched it to the truck. Actually think I learned a good bit Suppose Ill hit the hay
