     @feld Meanwhile for me, it's that all this shit weighs dozens to hundreds of kg and you need someplace to pull it apart and store it while it's apart. And if you don't have an engine hoist (and possibly an engine stand) and/or a car hoist or a pit, it's a real pain in the ass to do more than superficial stuff.
