Great video for any noobs out their. You may not be able to follow everything but you can see in 7 minutes how an engine is put together.

Very cool indeed. The only engine I've ever rebuilt was an old Cadillac OHV V8, that was easy. Today's engines, I'd be lost on setting the timing. DOHC I4 wouldn't be that bad, but DOHC V engines look like a total nightmare. 4 cams and crank I have to get in time with each other, that and with most if you get it off you snap the valves... Why I let my 3000GT go when it needed a rebuild...
