Pulling the top end, valve train and intake and re-assembly (minus clean up) was a good 4hrs of work. Taking out a piston dealing with BBF headers in a 60's mustang would add about 6-7 more hours. I'm not as young as I use to be and might fall asleep under the car. LOL

Mike, std teardown nowadays is pulling a head of your choice. I haven't seen a rod and piston pulled except for a protest. As others had said, if you were chosen for teardown, I am sure there would some willing to help. If you were in D1, I know you would have help if needed, including myself, and am sure every division there are those that would jump in.
