If you haven't subscribed to @Mike T's channel this is what you've been missing out on. And more.

Of course I've spoiled it all with the starting video.

Still more videos are going to be released. At least you can watch them and see how many mistakes I make!

Just watched the video. Did you insert the washers when fitting the rocker arms?
I saw you installing the spring washers but not the flat ones for the other side.
Was not visible in the video.
Clean work als always!

If you mean the shims, then yes. I smeared them with assembly lube so they’d stick when I put the rockers in. We weren’t able to show the whole rocker assembly process which is too bad. There are very few videos on how it’s done. Perhaps @Mike T has some more footage he can release later? I can’t remember how much of it I filmed.

In case you were wondering you can get the engine in with the rear breather attached. It's just not easy.
