  • How long will it take to....

    swap heads/intake, cam, timing chain, and valve train?? Also keep in mind that this is my first time dealing with the top part of the engine.

      It took me the better part of a night the first time. Really, it all depends on whether you have the right tools and the know-how on how to get through sticky situations.

        Ya I have a good set of air tools so that should speed things up.

          i don't know about two weeks.

          if you work on it only at night, maybe a week. the thing that takes the longest is just letting the gaskets and silicone cure up.

            This is the first time dealing with the top end?? You are definitely in for a couple of days at least. Air tools are great but DO NOT get in a rush. Make sure you have a good manual and take your time. Also, mixing old parts together with new parts on the top end is certain death.. make sure you use new lifters on a new cam, new push rods etc.. Also, label everything during disassembly and make sure to use the proper torque values. Have fun and let us know how it turns out... Later

              I'm rebuilding the hole top end. New heads, intake (all p&P) new cam, liters, ect, new timing chain, rockers, mostly everything.

              Josh how are my heads coming along?
