OK,

On a scale from 1-10 (10 being forget about it) ....

Id like to know how difficult it is to:

1) Remove the heads to be rebuilt by pro mechanic?
2) Remove and rebuild the heads myself?

Ive installed my own suspension lift kit, replaced alternator, and can turn a wrench. But never got into the guts of the engine.

:BANANA:

For #1...............

With the correct tools,factory service manual(torque values and timing marks),more then basic wrench turning skill it's about a 5-6,otherwise can be a 7+ for the unfamiliar.

For #2.................

With the correct tools(highly specialized tools required and expensive) and years of training,about a 2-3 otherwise a 10.

Just to be clear 1-10 meaning 10 the most difficult…

Ok… for question #1 - what kind of tools…? and will a Hanyes (i think its Haynes) manual do?

Thanks in advance.
