Boy did I stir up some crap, eh?
Can't get to work on the car until monday now.
It's at a buddies house, he's got a lift and butt loads of tools.
But he's racing in Indy this week (NHRA).

I am, of course, a little biased. 
+2
I'm probably a bit bias on this as well, but US engineers put out some outstanding work! Some of the guys I work with are amazing. I can only hope I pick up some of the skills they have. It's no wonder the company I work for is number one in it's industry and not some foreign manufacturer.

On the comments on engineering in USA most are misunderstanding my drift.The issue is 'the system', that is the education system that charges WAY over the 'worldwide' rate for tuition and is NOT as comprehensive as say the German or UK system in content. Example, my neighbour is a doctor, late 40's, 3 kids etc and is STILL paying off his Med School loans! The price is too high & the quality too low. Which is why say, engineers from Asia and the Far East will work for lower wages...they have no loans to pay off!. Its 'the sytem'. On auto engineering, when I see an All American Formula 1 car win the championships, that is engine, trans, frame etc from US I will rest my case. regards TH

You gotta pay to play. If I want to become a doctor, I'll assume the debt that goes along with 8-12+ years of school. Your neighbor knew what he was getting into when he signed up for classes. If he's a good doctor, then I would think those school loan payments wouldn't be much of an issue. This is the greatest country in the world. If anyone doesn't like it, they can leave as easy as they came in. Evidently some people would be happier in their own country.  Mark

You miss the point...again. You only have to pay through the nose for education in the USA...The rest of the world pays a lot less!....No one is knocking the country just and education sytem that is more of a money machine that an institution of 'higher learning'.Just keep writing the checks if you think more $$$ is a better idea!
