I did everything myself beside the machine work. Disassembly, research, minor custom fab work, assembly, and installation all done with my own 2 hands. I learned mostly from doing research like any good noob should do. But for actually knowing how to put a motor together I dont ever actually having someone teach me, it just kinda came natural...but I do have some recent schooling just to make it look good on paper. lol
Sheeran, yeah I too am glad to see there is someone local that actually appreciates this platform. But good luck finding parts for either one...like I am sure you read my motor is pretty much a "hybrid" cuz the only thing left from the actual 2.4L is the block, crank, head, and valves. Everything else besides the turbo stuff and the pistons/rods is from a Quad 4 HO, including the oil pump...and let me tell ya, that was a royal P.I.T.A. but well worth it!
