Default Engine Rebuild

Is it possible that somebody could put up a detailed guide how to dismantle an engine and then putting it back together again with lots of photos?

I know taking photos can be a pain in the arse when you just want to crack on but it would be great to see!

Thanks,

Nick.

Just read the thread from start to finish - epic!

r.e. removing the valves. I assume you have to use a special tool to compress the valve springs before removing the collets?

Any zetec engine build threads? I've searched but can't find anything (unless the build is within another resto thread???)

Thanks for the info guys
