If you haven't done anything like this before, it seems like a daunting task. When you get the head off and you are staring at your pistons you will be overcome with a fear that you did something terribly wrong and will never have the engine running ever again.
But then things start to come together, your anxiety decreases. You get the head bolts torqued down to spec, you double check all the connections. And when you sit in the drivers seat and put the key in the ignition all those fears suddenly come rushing back, and you just know the moment you turn the motor over something will blow up and all that time will be wasted. But then it starts right up and you never have a problem with it again.
Or at least that's kinda how it went for me!
