Have you stripped it yet to determine what needs replacing and machining ? Are you doing the heads as well - Heads Shaved, valve grind and/or Guides etc ? Apart from the obvious Rings & Bearings, make sure you replace the Timing Chain & Tensioners, and high volume Oil Pump - only with quality parts! Your 2 most important tools are a Micrometer and a Torque Wrench Make sure you do a thorough soak and clean (Diesel works well) of all components, and make sure your work environment is absolutely Dust Free (Spotless!) Good luck with it !
