Oh, can't believe I missed this topic.

Anyways, I'm about 6' 4" 1/2 or 6' 5", haven't checked recently.

And I'm still in high school.

Holy shit. You're just a wee bit shorter than me. Welcome to the club.

Gladly. I got back from camp just a few days ago and everyone there was like "Dude, you look like you're 20!". I hit my head twice going under the same low door there. >.>
I hit my head on a lot of stuff. I hit my hand on the roof in the bathroom while on vacation at least four times and had to duck to get under an exit sign.
And my friends say I could probably easily go into a bar and convince them I'm over 21 without an ID. I have to shave twice a week during the school year else I violate the dress code.

...I wonder if something's wrong with me... :|

Sounds like there is.

Go see a doctor.

Eh, my dad was 6'3 and my mum was 5'10. When I was a kid, they turned me into a pussy and made me drink my milk and eat my vegetables and ALWAYS be in bed by 9:30, I was pissed off, but in the end I guess it was pretty cool.

I can pick it up and carry it around for a minute at most. After it's too much of a strain and I risk dropping it.
I'm only guessing but I think there are quite a few bits of smaller stuff that has to be removed before you can pull an engine out anyway. At least the cooling, electrical, smog, exhaust manifold and other such parts that are not solidly attached to the engine block. I suppose it would vary with how each engine was designed but you would probably have to figure the minimum would be engine block, cam, pistons, valves and covers. That minimum even for a small 4 cylinder engine would be enough to herniate my old back!

Oh yeah quite a bit gets left in the car but like you said more than enough to make it impossible for a normal person. Draws quite a few stares whenever I do it.
Plenty of people say I should try competing in a worlds strongest woman/man competition but I imagine I'd be disqualified due to the condition that got me this tall.

Started off as a question about Hisao's height, thread wandered into the wasteland midway through the first page.

Three pages later, the wastes claim it.
