If you have the right tools, all the right parts, and a manual with the specs it's a breeze. That's one of the beauties of the K series, they're tough as nails and easy to work on.

If the block is ready to go, basically all you need is the standard assortment of wrenches, a torque wrench, ring expander, ring compressor, and a good set of Feeler guages. A valve spring compresser comes in handy, but two screwdrivers will also work. Seals can be driven in with large diameter sockets, and the crank bearings can too, if you're careful to drive them straight.
