I liked Bruce T's video. That's it. I can't compare them as I never saw any others. But I did like Bruce T's video....

I have the Atkins.
It's good.

Atkins rebuild dvd is the cheapest for just the basics. I believe that the dvd set, DIY-RE, is the best out there.

I have watched them all, the RA video seams to be the best l around. Atkins is a bit less expensive but definitly not better than the RA video. The DIY-RE is a waste of time and money. Bruce T.'s Video (RA) is very informative and he shows you lots of tricks and mods too.

One word of advice (HAVE THE FSM WITH YOU) you will need to reference it the entire build. Good Luck!

I agree, Bruce T.'s is the best and the DIY-RE is a joke,and three times the money. I havent seen the Atkins though so cant comment on it.

I see, I was confused baecause I didn't see 'Mazdatrix' anywhere on the page, thought we might have some video thieves on our hands . But yeah, I have the Mazdatrix one, it's very good. It goes through all the steps and explains how everything works. I feel confident that I could rebuild a motor by myself after watching it.

13b rebuild

Has anyone actually rebuild their own 13b by using any of these vid's. I'm thinking about using Bruce's vid, let me know if they actually work.
