I call BS.
You don't have the confidence. I've seen what you've written here. You can install brakes, you can do rod bearings.
Think about it: Those brakes are life and death if you screw up (on a track car for sure). Rod bearings are wallet killers if done wrong, but you aren't likely to die (self inflicted or spousal causes excluded). It's not rocket surgery. Undo bolts, redo bolts. Easy peasy.
Study SYT's DIY. Wait until August (heh -- that'll be fun) when there isn't a good track weekend for a while, and do it. Don't make me come out there...
