Well there are so many writeups on doing this stuff to DSM's (eclipses, talons, lasers, 4G63) It's the same parts. If you search the web or try www.vfaq.com it'll have some writeups on the DSM's with 4G63's. Any of the generic stuff, head studs, cams, stuff thats not car specific you can use that as a guide.

Yah I know.... I just don't feel all the comfortable doing it. Lol I didn't even feel comfortable doing my fuel pump but turns out i helped him do it and it was a piece of cake.
yeah hit I would roll with the beer offer...sounds like a great time too...If not you can always come to ATL for the 150 install price of cams and headstuds, and get some serious tuning as well.
It's a drive for you, but I'm outside of Orlando, in Cocoa. ZIP 32926 Come on up, let know and we'll have a good time.
You do the work, I'll watch and supervise, use my tools. Can't beat that.

My torque wrench alone costs $350, 1/4 inch air ratchet $250, wrenches $250, impact 3/8" gun $280. This is not even considering how much my years of experience are worth. You are the type of people that **** me off, although everyone in my area (NYC) respects me and my prices I still have one of these guys that "offer" me a price to work on their car 
It takes me 1 hour and 15 minutes to do the cams (fully bled lifters and primed oil pump) and another 30-45 minutes to do the headstuds. I get $235 for the cams and for the heastuds and I have a long list of people waiting for my work. Everyone must understand that just because the job takes lets say 2 hours it does not mean that you get to charge only 2 hours. You pay regardless if it takes 2 hours or 4 hours. Jeez, it takes me 2 1/2 hours to do the clutch on the Evo and I get $450 (with fluids) , I suppose you expext me to charge no more than $50 an hour= $125, are you nuts
