I can. I've done 2 so far for my car, both 350's. It's been a few yrs. since I did the one in the car now, but I feel confident I could do it again. I would need some specs though because I can't remember what you torque everything too.
Of course being able to, and wanting to are two completely different things.
Don't worry honey, I'll help you

I did the one in my 66 Mustang and my 64 Falcon from top to bottom minus the machine work. Even rebuilt the factory carb on the Falcon.
As far as doing a race / high hp motor, I will leave that to the pros that have all the experience and tools.

in theory, yes i could, given a decent ratchet set and a torque wrench (and some other misc. shit)
will i? no. why? i don't have those tools, any desire to buy them, or any real need to fuck up my engine.
