i would strip block get it checked then decked and honed, get the crank checked and fit new piston rings, big end bearings and main bearings, new head gasket, new oil pump,
strip the head have it pressure checked,new valve guides, re lap in the valves, new stem seals and have the head skimed, prob missed lots but thats where i would go then you know you have a mint engine, and you will get to learn how it all goes together

Yea i know Mark. :/
Thing is i'm looking forward to taking it back out,making it a minter etc. Getting engine all mechanically working,all new roose black hoses,few bits painted and just a mega tidy up if it's possible. But it is gonna be alot more money thrown at it.
Like Ben said i'll learn alot about them if i rebuild this engine myself.
