It was never meant to be a step by step guide, but seems to work as one. You definitly still need the video and the manual. I went over most of the important parts when assembling, but did not cover cleaning and measuring. Probably the most important two steps.

If my dad didn't come back from work location I'd have the engine in by now... maybe I'll have it running for myself on christmas morning. ;D

well i still plan on getting the video but that gives me a much better idea of what im in for(having never torn down a rotary) im not worried about the cleaning as i have many wire brushes and things laying around as well as a parts cleaner. the only thing i need to worry about is measuring everything but as long as the video gives the specs ill give it a try.
