i'm 16 and i'm havin a go at doin miself
its cost $150 for full gasket set rings, bigend bearing
and main bearings i'm also doin a port and polish
least that way you know exactly whats been done
and if it don't work propaly have another
go at it is the best way ta learn and save money
ya'll definetlly need a manuel preferably a gregorys
follow it exactly and ya should be right
