i used the rotary aviation videos and i was able to build the block. i needed help putting it back together because he just says that "installtion is the reverse of removal" bullshit so you'll be own your own after that.

I have seen both. Get the rotary aviation, it's far better than the Atkins. Here is one example.
The atkins teaches you how to install the Oil O Ring Springs by the colors of the tabs. If you are re-using those springs, you will do to it without the colors, the rotary aviation tape shows you this.
Another thing I liked about the rotary aviation tape is how it shows you to organize the seals and from which rotors they came from.
Front Rotor Open Side
Front Rotor Gear Side
Rear Rotor Open Side
Rear Rotor Gear Side
Those are just a few of many examples on why the rotary aviation tape is by far better.
