Is that all that is really required? I've been thinking ordering an Atkins video and rebuilding it on my own but I thought much more speciality tools were involved.

- 10mm socket
- 12mm socket
- 14mm socket
- 17mm socket
- 19mm socket
- 2 1/8” socket
- Ratchets for the sockets w/ extensions
- Breaker bar
- “cheater bar”/4-6’ metal tube to slip over the breaker bar
- Foot pound torque wrench. That goes between a minimum of 20ft lbs to at least 150 ft lbs
- Inch pound torque wrench
- Flywheel locking tool
- Dial calipers
- Telescoping gauges(I don’t remember the sizes you need of the top of my head I can get this tonight)
- Dial gauge on a magnetic base
- Micrometer (I don’t remember the sizes you need of the top of my head I can get this tonight)
- FSM
- Engine stand with the rotary adapter
That is all I can think of at the moment but I know there is some stuff I left out.

I should mention that if you are going to port, don't use a Dremel. It'll take 6 weeks... Use a die grinder to do the majority of material removal, then a dremel to finish off.

Try it on your next build, I find they get 2X the mileage of a standard sober rebuild.
