hook v/s raking

When it comes down to it there is nothing better than manual tools for your Lock pick Set, whether they be retail, homebrew, macgyver style. DIY'ers look here.

I have had the bug for the past week.. some stupid stomach virus that has been going around I slept through my Birthday:lol:

But I am getitng better and plan on bginning work the day I feel bit a relief.

I would worry to much about which mthod to focus on, both indeed to work, try them both and you never know I mean those guys in germany rake locks in seconds flat.. I mean heck they scored a 15 sec? top time for opening a mul t lock.

As said theres bypass, like trip wires, the old Schalge Knob bypass and a whole fleet of others some simple and some hard, some seceret some youtubed to death.

So time is not a concern, just practice it like an art.

p.s.s its an SS maro and all N.A. daily driver, or "grocery getter" with stock gearing and no stall. not a bad run with just a little tuning and some bolt on's.

Thanks man I apprecaite the understanding, but tomarrow I plan on getting right back to the bench, I cannot wait :) , just sitting around drives me crazy.

As for the LS1, I belive i have fond one, my buds a chevy tech. and he will probobly disect it before I make an offer.

I say that time for your buddies LS1 if you get a nice track time like 7-8am when it's still has the morning chill, that would shave a bit of time for sure.

Take care,

LN21
