Contemplating HG + seals +belt job near Philly, Help?

Title says speaks for mosy of it. Well, I m thinking about doing some work on my car, but do not have any experiemce taking the engine apart. I know that there are thousands of learning tools, and step by step procedures, along with the knowlegeable people on here. I just dont feel comfortable doing this by myself. I dont know when I will be doing this (should be soon though) and have not bought the parts yet, just wanted to know who would be willing to make a trip and help a fellow PPhead out. If it comes down to it, I will just have to be posting on here a few hundred times a day when I do the job. Thanks guys.

Garage
We're in State College, about 2.5 to 3 hours away. Have a garage and a car lift. Currently, my 944 is on the lift and all the tools here if you can make it here

Exit, that could be a good possiblity. A garage and a car lift would make life, and the jobs, a whole lot easier. I hate working in my street. I have a few friends that are at Penn St. that I can see for a few days. Thanks for the offer Patrick, and friend with the other 944.
Thank you Icey for the offer also.
