Got Jake's video for my B-day (early) and started watching it during lunch today. This is hot! It makes me wanna get out in the cold shop & start tearing one of the engines apart just for grins (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) I didn't know it could be so easy (I think) at least it looks easy watching Jake. I always thought I could do it but never had the nerve to tear into an engine with only a book. The video seems to leave nothing to the imagination.
Good job Jake and thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) bruce |

Jake's video IS really good, but when you get into it you'll find out about a few things NOT in the video, which really deals with a bone stock rebuild - valve train geometry changes comes to mind, as does minor blueprinting, clearances, machining, etc - no big deal, just beyond the scope of that video, which I did find to be excellent and a big help. Tom wilson's book was a good companion. I'll -probably buy Jakes next video too, even though this engine is done and I hope my next will be a 3.0 or 3.2.
