the book tells you what the torques are etc, just don't forget to use sealant on the head bolt threads because they go into the water jacket.

The next thing is if you know how to time a distributor.

The remainder of the work requires grunt work, sweat, and friends bribed with pizza and 12 packs.

May as well just get a valve job and redo the heads if the blocks is still ok.
