The thread regarding "what you got done today" was quite popular. I know we all screw up stuff from time to time. As such, I was wondering what you screwed up and had to fix. In my infinite wisdom, I put the flywheel on backwards and didn't realize it until I had the motor/tranny installed and tried to spin the torque converter to get it bolted to the flywheel. Needless to say, I wasn't a happy camper. Shortly after that I installed my thermostat housing, only to realize I forgot to install the thermostat. So what did you screw up?
