Haynes do a book on the CVH engine - it is very good for beginners.
Get it from amazon,
As for the loom, well that depends on what management you are running.

Hey, and welcome! 
As Rick says the haynes on CVH's is good.
As for management, if you are in the early stages i really really really would advise you to run it on EFI, as opposed to a S2's MFI system.
There is stacks and stacks of info spread about here on EFI conversions and im sure Rick will agree its a wise move for longterm benefits
