Well as most of you know, I dropped the exhaust valve on cylinder 2. I went to afterdark and he offered a good condition/running head for my sohc. My question to you is, I know some of you members have done this replacement/install, so how hard is this for someone who hasn't done one before?

will take some knowledge of the motor and a FSM or Chilton's Manual.

Really not that hard of a job :)Might take a newbie a day to do everything.And experienced mechanic wouldn't spend more than 2 hours on it.

Chiltons is mostly useless. Get a FSM and be done with it.
