....what is the difficulty level?
Assuming a person is mechanically inclined, wrenches on their own car for 99% of things, has basic tools, has (most) of the knowledge, etc.
I am in the middle of doing the timing set and OPG in preparation for boost. I have found this process quite straightforward.
I have considered pulling the motor and paying a shop to install new pistons, rings, and bearings for peace of mind. (Bringing them the engine / shortblock, not the car)
And, like every guy with tools and just enough knowledge to be dangerous, have then wondered how difficult that job would be for me to do myself.
