rebuild question and yes i have been scanning forums

[ryrotary7]

you dont really need special tools but it will help. i took out my motor out with simple tools. you just need cherry picker and just few tools to get the engine out. you need impact wrench greater than 250foot pound also. i think street porting is gud enough if its street driven. bridge porting can be too much, some say in other forums. it b gud idea to pick up haynes manual cuz it shows how to overhaul the engine. it took me n my friend couple days to just take out the engine and couple days to take everything apart. it will b faster if you have more ppl and spend more time. i havent rebuilt the engine so i can't help you with rebuilding tho. but its not that hard if you do your hw. gud luck
