It's not easy, but we did Bill's head and cam swap in his driveway in just a few afternoons. The rear head bolts (well, all the head bolts really) were a pain.

yeah it really is a complete pita especially with the engine in the car...we got it done but it was alot of work. Unbolting & then tqing down the head bolts was the most difficult/backbreaking part of it imo...but once you button everything up and fire it up for the first time theirs no feeling like it knowing you did it yourself :D
