Bah. Probably. But it takes too long. I've never needed to do all that. This would work great for the backyard mechanic, though.
I posted the axle DIY after all. Why not?

And after reading that, congrats on this job; this is a biggie. Now all you gotta do is rebuild the engine with a redesigned bore, stroke, and c/r.

I would follow westcoast's DIY more closely than helms. Helms wants you to remove the exhaust pipe, which seems absolutely pointless to me. Not only that, but helms doesn't have as good of pictures.
As for the clutch, man, its like learning to drive a stick all over again. Its still a factory replacement, but I find that I used to rely on the slip to get smoothly through the gears. Now its like.. when you let go of the clutch, it grabs!!!
