pull the oil pan and check it out. Should be pretty much like a V8...

Pick up a manual on CD, it's the way to go. Like said above motors are all fairly similar V-8's or little 4 bangers.

Welcome to the DSM community. Best thing you can do right now is buy a Haynes manual and sleep with it under your pillow. J/K. It really will help you though. It lists all the clearances, tolerances , and torque specs you'll need. It also has a fairly detailed process for tearing down and rebuilding your motor. You can find one at Advance Auto and AutoZone. Good Luck and let us know what you find.
