You'd be surprised. I mean, perhaps you may not be able to do some things, but it's not that difficult. You just have to know a little bit about it to know how tight to tighten nuts and bolts, torque specs and sequences, etc. well, you have to be a bit mechanically inclind i suppose.
Thank you.

Sounds good I remember when I changed the valve cover gaskets on moms 3.5 and was my first time takin the top part apart and I didnt know about torque specs or anything so I was tightin the screw and of course the head snaped off and the bolt was stuck into the engine. But thanks to screw out I saved my ass. once again nice work looks and sounds great

yeah, you gotta be careful. they're only 10mm bolts.. 21 ft lbs.
