    Nothing to hard, just labor intensive. Best to line up with oil change because easier with pan off. Camshaft needs to come out so I use coat hangers to hold cam followers up. If water pump is old I'd just put a reman one on. Pretty sure big idler gear bolt torques to around 340ft/lb, so need bigger torque wrench. I would set overhead since you have rockers off. Take a good look @ your radiator/CAC while it's out and blow them out good.
