Default puma snapped cam belt

hi guy's

ive done a couple of head off's before (ohc, cvh), be never a twin cam, is the puma 1.7 1999 vintage fairly straight forward to do, like when i take the head bolts out the sump isnt going to fall off, or you have to take half the engine apart before you start taking the head off, i guess it's gonna need valve's, what are the chaces of it fooking the pistons, i dont really want to put another engine in it

Have a look through some of the Puma forums, you never know, there may even be user guide, its a ford, either way, with the right tools, it won't be that hard.

Think it's a bitch tbh the missus has got one and my local garage said to make sure the belts done cos if it takes the valves it would be over a grand to repair, yes I know it would be cheaper to buy a new engine.
