I work on equipment for a living and have rebuilt quite a few of the old two stroke Detroits over the past few years. Even so when it comes to the block and head work I leave that to the "professionals". Basically it takes too much special equipment to do it yourself, if you don't do it all the time, and even with the equipment it's too easy to screw something up if you don't have the knowledge to do it right. It may cost a little more to get a reman or to the existing head professionally done but in the long run you know it's right and you not gonna have to pay to do the job twice along with getting a professional to redo something that got screwed up. Just my .02
