Ditto. In fact, it was so easy, I did two other blocks at the same time, just for sh*ts.

However, the crappy part was notching the block and then installing the rotating assembly only to find out the crank girdle needs notching too.

I suppose if you don't have access to air, a good carbide bit and roll cartridge, then it can be a task.
