Besides, you can sell it when you're done with it, if you are so inclined.
BTW, you'll need cam tools, a couple of good torque wrenches, a dial indicator, and some other specialized tools that I can't recall off the top of my head. Oh, and Wayne's book.
All worth it, if you are a tool junkie like me. 
Have fun with the rebuild,
Jim

Oh i have all that already, i did a top end rebuild about 1.4k miles ago. But now i'm planning ahead for the possibility of what i broke being inside the case. I guess i can do what slantnose did and use all 4 until i get down to the case, then reduce it to 2 so that i can split it. Or even just put it on the workbench when it's down to the case and i'll split it open there.
