I've done it. It's kinda hard. You may want to pay someone to do it. The cutters and pilot shaft will cost you about $250. And you need a right angle cordless drill to get to the back cylinders. And a donor head with the valve seats removed, this is were the cutter sits in the head. Then you have to take the head on and off about a million times.LOL.
