Main thing is a good set up by a reputable tuner.

Ok, next question... i'm wanting to try and keep the costs down as much as possible, stripping the shell etc and doing as much resto work as i possibly can myself.
If i was to strip the engine down, buy all the parts required, what other things would i need to get done? For example the block, pistons, rings, crank, head, cam, valves, bearings etc? I'm a trainee auto electrician but have access to plenty of tools/equipment and work with a good mechanic for any help, just wandering how difficult it would be getting all the machine work done seperatley and then building the engine up myself before having it setup properly.

Thanks
