Pay Particular attention to the oil pump drive gear. Its easy to get in backwards and the pump wotnt pump.
When ya get to that gear, I cant remember if you must remove it or not,, but what a bummer if it falls out,, not sure now,, its been years,, Clean a spot and put something on it,, I use sharpies,, just KNOW which is the outside of that gear.. Keep up with each side cover bolt, in order, and with the sealing washers, by sticking them in a piece of cardboard with an outline and a slot for every bolt
Avoid a puzzle,,
The care required to put it together without causing a problem cant be overstated.. Several easy passes torquing them, thumb on 1/4" ratchet head, fingertips bringing the ratchet around, no closed fist, dont use your arm, fingers,, FEEL of them,, If youre coming around on the third pass and one doeasnt wanna turn,, Dont turn it,, Fixin a leak is a Lot easier than fixin stripped threads or busted bolt,,
