Improvement time for engine competition

Yesterday, we disassembled and assembled the Ford 5.4L V8 engine as if for the competition. The rules given to us changed a little. Only two of the pistons have to be taken out and the crank stays in, which makes the whole process much easier and faster. In our first try we had the time of 43 minutes, in the second run 35 minutes. I am sure we will improve once we get hang of it and use proper tools. In the last run I twisted off the 3/8-to-1/4 conversion socket. Tools are expensive.
