THe first time it was very hard to do, the secind time it was very easy. Its mostly about unbolint your part and keeping the bolts with your parts. For instance if you take off the upper plenum, put the bolts back in the holes they came out of and set it off to the side. If you havent pulled a harmonic balancer off you'll have to do that. Take out the radiator. Learn to set valve lash. Read how to tell what position the cam is in by watching the #1 rockers move. Learn how to pu the distributer back in the correct position. Its hard the first time, but the second time is easy.
