Is it your daily driver? If so have a shop do it. They will be able to rebuild it faster and be sure (hopefully) that it is done right the first time.

If its a toy, do it your self. It will take longer but it will be an excelent learning experiance. Be sure to pick up a manual and make sure you have a good torque wrench. Just take your time, double check everything, and you will learn a ton about engines!
