WTF??? This cat is like watching a funky muck a bootfall. "Torque it to something", "I'm sure there is some torque spec", Christ dude, if you are going to make a 24 minute and 27 second video atleast take the time to look up the torque specs.

In all seriousness, it was informative, especially for those who haven't attempted this before. But there are specs and they are for a reason. He could have included them. If I would've ever given a period of instruction like this in the Marine Corps I would have ended up in front of a firing squad.

It wasn't that many months ago that I did my first valve job and I'd like to know why he had no bloody knuckles? Maybe I'm just a CroMag! If you're a rookie at this job then by all means use this video along with Eaglecollector's site and it will be a breeze. I was acared as Hell going into it the first time but it was a breeze, and I didn't have to do all of the fumbling around with trying to align the cam marks. Follow Larry's tips and it will be much easier than the video portrays.
