It was time consuming, but not that bad to do. I will say that the biggest PITA was reinstalling the valve spring keepers and .060 Crower offset retainers. The new springs had some serious seat pressure so we actually ended up putting a piece of pipe over a breaker bar connected to the OTC spring compressor and then holding it back under my armpit while I used both of my hands to get the keepers back in. It was definitely nice to have a break in between cylinders while the other person removed the spark plug and pressurized the next cylinder. I DO NOT reccommend doing it alone unless you have an extra pair of hands. Go with the shift kit and converter, you'll be happy with that. How much did you get your PI cams for?</blockquote>
