I have a Gude head package on the way and I'm thinking about installing it myself, Ive always done all of my work but nothing more than bolt-ons and suspension etc. this will be the first time opening an engine up and dealing with cams and the head gasket finding TDC and all that stuff, I was wondering if I should bother or just spend the $550 to get it done professionally, Im confident I can figure it out eventually but I dont want to be without my car for two weeks, I'm really going to need help on this one.

is there any special tools I need to pick up? andy suggestions will be appreciated. thanks -Brian W
